The program was developed with the goal of helping businesses connect with tools and solutions that will enable them use Twitter more effectively, as well as guide developers to more business opportunities.
The new additions were included to “address challenges we continue to hear often from publishers and brands, particularly around engagement and analytics,” according to Doug Williams, who is part of Twitter’s business development team.

Williams also announced the hiring of Zach Hofer-Shall, a former Forrester analyst. In his position, Hofer-Shall will manage the Certified Products Program by identifying products that quality for certification and develop possible new verticals within the program.
