What is a Twitter (X) feed aggregator?

Add a live Twitter (X) feed to your WordPress website in just a few seconds!

With our advanced social media aggregator, you can embed Twitter feed widgets on any CMS or eCommerce platform—especially WordPress.

This is one of the best Twitter plugins available, offering premium features to suit any use case.

EmbedSocial’s plugin is fully integrated with the latest X API, allowing you to easily display tweets, threads, mentions, or hashtag campaigns directly on your WordPress site.

If your brand is already active on X, don’t let that content go unnoticed—turn it into real-time social proof.

Instead of manually copying tweets to your website, just post on X, and your content will automatically appear. You can also display tweets from specific hashtags, lists, or mentions by others.

Whether it’s news, brand updates, campaigns, or customer conversations—X is where your audience talks. Let that content live on your website too.

To match your site’s design, choose from flexible layout options to display tweets in a clean, responsive format.

We’ve also made it super easy with our official WordPress Twitter Feed Plugin, designed for quick setup and flawless integration.

No coding skills or technical knowledge is required!

How to embed a Twitter feed on your WordPress website

Important note before you get started:

The Twitter (X) feed source is available exclusively on EmbedSocial Premium plans. This unlocks full access to generate feeds not only from your own profile but also from public tweets containing specific keywords or hashtags—perfect for campaign monitoring, social listening, or user-generated content displays.

To begin using X as a source, each user is required to have an API key from the official Basic API tier of Twitter (X). This API key is necessary to connect your account, fetch public tweets, and sync real-time updates securely.

Before you get started you will need to apply for the Basic API access level, generate your API key and contact our support team to connect it to your EmbedSocial account

Best practices for displaying a Twitter feed on WordPress

  • Place it prominently – Ideal spots are homepages, blog sidebars, or product pages.
  • Use a clear headline – E.g. “What’s new on X” or “Live brand updates from Twitter.”
  • Moderate your content – Highlight the most relevant or high-performing tweets.
  • Design for engagement – Choose layouts that encourage interaction, like sliders or masonry.
  • Make it branded – Match colors and fonts with your website to maintain consistency.
  • Add a follow button – Drive new followers straight from your site.
  • Keep it fresh – Let the auto-sync feature bring in your newest tweets in real time.

Download the EmbedSocial WordPress plugin to embed X feed with shortcode or embed the feed with a JavaScript by only creating an account – which avoids the need to maintain the plugin.

We are spending half of what we previously did for our last review manager, and getting 100x more out of it! I honestly am amazed at what we are getting for the price. I wish we had switched to EmbedReviews years ago.

Great intuitive interface – our team had no difficulties figuring out how everything worked, without online training or whatsoever. Great support – I was in touch with a support manager Alex throughout the implementation, to understand how to better use the tool for our purpose. He was always helpful and quick to reply. What’s more, he helped us to export the submissions at a specific date / hour for further processing.
