Hi Brenda, I started collecting data using TAGS. Currently, it is working fine I think with specific links as well as the domain. The search for specific links started working when I removed http and started the link from www. Thanks for the article Stu. I have been looking for some information on how different methods of data collection on twitter affect the data I collect. So as you said it is timely.

Hello Davayani,
Have you tried using the “url:” operator? url: Performs a tokenized match on the expanded URLs of a Tweet. Tokens and phrases containing punctuation or special characters should be double-quoted (e.g. url:"/developer"). While generally not recommended, the operator can also match on a specific protocol, enclosed in double-quotes (e.g. url:" https://developer.twitter.com"). entities.urls.expanded_url
I haven’t used it except a the domain level “url: altnews, url: in”
Regards,
Brenda
