Savvy Social Schedulers you must use

Okay, so you have created this picture perfect content plan for the month, all your blogs are ready to go, and you’ve nailed your hashtags. Now what? Well you could post live but more often than not you forget to post, or you don’t post on time or it ends up being a mad rush to get it on all platforms. This my friends is why a scheduling tool will become your biz bestie. But which one to use? I have picked my top 3 that I find highly beneficial and efficient for both myself and for my clients.

Facebook Creator Studio

Ah, the humble native scheduler for Facebook and Instagram. This is very user friendly with a lot of great features such as being able to scheduling IGTV’s and Stories (for Facebook only). Many believe that because you are using a native scheduler, it will not harm your algorithm, but there is little to no evidence of any scheduler affecting the age old algorithms. Creator Studio is constantly updating its features to compete against the big boys in the scheduling scene, and has added new features such as monetisation opportunities.

This simple scheduler is great for those who have the main two social platforms, and even better as it is free to use.

Later

Later is my go to scheduler. It allows you to manage up to 3 social platforms and you can chose from Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest. This scheduler has a wide variety of options, analytics and neat little added extras such as adding a first comment to your Insta post as you schedule it and scheduling Insta stories.

When it comes to scheduling you can upload as much media as you want, allowing you full visualisation of your content. You can also save captions which can be a god send when it comes to hashtags. The free version let’s you have 1 account per platform and schedule up to 30 posts for each one, which is perfect for small businesses and freelancers who are starting to build there presence.

Hootsuite

I feel like this is the OG when it comes to schedulers. Hootsuite allows you to connect over 30 types of social media platforms. There streamlined interface may look scary but it is one of the easiest ones to manage. You can stay on top of conversations on key topics, track the performance of your posts and brand mentions, and monitor competitor activities – all from one dashboard! There free version isn’t the best, but if you are a social media manager, or you deal with multiple social accounts as a VA, then this may be the one for you.
