Sometimes you’ll need to use the information you get with one of WPs functions. To get the author url you’d use $link = get_author_posts_url($users['ID']); https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_author_posts_url

As far as checks

if (get_the_author_meta('twitter')) {
  ?>
    <p>
      <a href="http://twitter.com/<?php 
          echo the_author_meta( 'twitter' ); ?>" target="_blank">@<?php 
          echo the_author_meta( 'twitter' ); ?></a>
    </p>
  <?php
} // end if get twitter

Also, I’m not sure, but you may need to supply the author ID in this case https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/get_the_author_meta/ and https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_author_meta
