Pros and Cons of Private Accounts
If you choose to make your Twitter account public, all of your previous and future tweets posted on Twitter are kept secret from the public, except for followers permitted to view the tweets. Internet searches also block them. The tweets that were public in the past can be found on the internet if someone copies the tweets to another website.
Your profile page is public and continues to exist, but it will only display your profile thumbnail, your profile picture, bio, username, location, and tweet statistics. Your followers can view your tweets but not follow them or retweet them. Also, replies you tweet to followers who are not following you go unnoticed.
