New cool features for HootSuite (3 posts)

  • I’m a big fan of HootSuite. I know, I know … the edgerank can suck when you pre-program your Facebook posts. But consistency is key and if it takes HootSuite to help me … well so be it. (Now I schedule my Facebook page posts directly in Facebook, so I don’t have the edgerank issue and use HootSuite for all my other posting.) I love the Hootlet app they have which allows you to grab the url of any webpage and push it out to Social Media. But now they’ve gone one step farther into wonderfulness. Choose auto schedule and HootSuite will push out your content at the perfect time for your audience! They’ve also added custom content sharing to the Hootlet. http://blog.hootsuite.com/hootlet-autoschedule/

  • I’m excited about that new feature too, @amyhallbiz!  Yes, I agree, that if Hootsuite can help, then so be it.  Posting via a 3rd party app is better than not posting at all.  I think Facebook is not “punishing” the 3rd party apps as much as they used to and I still get engagement with them so people are seeing the posts!

  • You had me at “Hoot!” I’m not using it right now, but I agree about the so-what about the punishment attitude though. I mean, every day something ELSE comes out that we all just GOTTA have or do or play with and we simply can NOT do without tools like HootSuite if we want to enjoy any remaining hours left in our day.

    My question is… when will enough be enough… so the big boys will let us use all our speedy-up tools and accessories without all the backlash?
