Free Tools for Social Media Management

Creating a presence on social media for your business is a great way to attract new customers and retain old ones. It is challenging to constantly come up with new and engaging content. However, using social media management tools will allow you to effectively manage your brand or business. Here are some tools you can use to boost your presence on social media platforms.

Hootsuite

This is a very popular tool for social media management. It uses a freemium model for its services. The free service allows you to link up to three social media accounts. You can have up to five pre-scheduled posts but there can be just one user. You can manage, customize, and schedule your posts for all your social media accounts from Hootsuite’s dashboard.

A unique feature of the tool is the Streams option. This feature lets you monitor all activities happening on your social media streams. Instead of going to each account, you can monitor and reply to mentions, conversations, hashtags, and keywords.

No matter what social media management tool you use, you first need to make sure you are using a dependable internet connection. Signup with Spectrum Internet. Take a look at Spectrum Billing to learn more.
