When I started participating in social networks I was enjoying it , really.But after a few months and hundreds of new subscriptions later in sub communities , forums and other social environments I felt that I was running out of time.

Oh , I have to Tweet this , oh no , I forgot to publish that in Google Plus , this banner has not been announced in Pinterest.

Running from one network to another like a maniac to publish material , discuss with people and get informed on the latest trends.On top of that I had to attend certificate courses on marketing and design , read unlimited emails and to write content for my blog.

The day has only 24 hours and from time to time we have to sleep as well.

 

Are you struggling to finish your tasks just like I did?

Let’s do the Math – Personal Experience – Final Words

 

Hootsuite helped more than I expected.When I signed up I thought it was just a simple tool to schedule social messages and watch streams of social networks in the dashboard.

But as I was getting familiar and while experimenting I felt the true power of having such an application running for me.

 

For businesses and organisations Hootsuite can provide modern solutions , synchronize teams with easy to use apps , extensions while setting security standards.

 

Even the free version is a goldmine if you run a blog and you don’t have any other team members.With 3 social profiles , extensions and streams installed you will be amazed how easy is to manage your social accounts in one place , with a few clicks.

 

All the future messages you schedule can be modified before they sent if you decide to change anything on your settings.You can refer to older messages and repeat successful campaigns.

I could go on and on here but I will let you test this application on your own.

 

Furthermore the Hootsuite University is a giant resource of information that can boost your social authority and improve your activities.I can’t describe how powerful the Hootsuite Podium platform is.I can’t get enough of education.

Additionally the blog will ensure that you stay informed on the latest trends and will give you tons of ideas to implement for your blog or your business (online or offline).

 

I hope you find this article helpful and I hope Hootsuite will help you as it did for me.I am waiting for your comments as always.Have you tried the application?…Do you have any experience that you want to share? Till next time.

    I used to use many different social media accounts to spread the word about my business. Facebook, Instagram, Google Plus, you name it, I used it.

    It got so troublesome because managing these accounts was such a chore! Eventually, I shut most of them down and decided to focus on one or two accounts.

    However, it appears if I had been using Hootsuite in the first place I would have had that problem!

    That’s something I’ll certainly remember and as I continue to add to the list of social media accounts I use, I’ll remember to try it out!

    • Tasos

      Thank you Cerulean

      I believe as we grown our businesses we can get used to manage more and more accounts on social media without putting so much work. A matter of experience. Of course tools like Hootsuite can help reduce time spend doing these tasks.

      All my best wishes

    I’ve initially created a website with quality posts, at least I think so. I am now emerging into the world of social media. I sometimes can’t tweet when I feel that I should, ie, at the best times. I have heard of hoot suite before and wondered what it was about and how good it was. So thank you for your post, very informative.

    I thought it wa just for Twitter so I didn’t realise it was for others, so that’s good to know. Is this program free and is there an app that I can use.

    Reply
    • Tasos

      Hootsuite offers free and premium memberships.You should choose depending on your social media profiles and what you want to accomplish.Test out the free version first to see if Hootsuite suits you.

      Thank you Owain , for visitng my blog and for your comment.Good luck with Hootsuite.

    I had tried hootsuite a while back for my twitter campaigns but I didn’t think much to the social tool.

    However, fromd reading your review, Hootsuite seems to have evolved and it’s certainly come a long way since when I used it.

    From all the benefits you have outlined here, I will definitely give Hootsuite another shot for my social media marketing!

    Thanks!

      Thank you for this input Neil.Yes , it would be nice if you give this tool another try.However the most important thing when it comes to social media marketing is the interaction with the people in real time.Automation comes last but it can save you some time

    So the free version gives you three social profiles. Can you tell me which ones? FB, twitter and …? I’m guessing here. I did not know that HootSuite is quite affordable but I do not like the annual billing. There is no monthly option for Pro version or am I overlooking something?
    If I go with free version and then want to switch to Pro, do I still get the 30 day trial or do I have to pay the full price? Thanks!

    I had no idea this was a possibility! I have worn myself out logging in to each account and tweeting, posting, pinning and so on. This product looks as if it would make things a lot easier, especially for those with a small business that they manage. It is a real time saver and I am amazed at how it works! Thank you!

    Hi Tasos,
    Thanks for posting this great article. You really put all the info out here and I appreciate that. Hootsuite is something I’ve been meaning to look into. You are right, after a while it gets to be too much and one becomes disorganized. I’m hoping Hootsuite will help with that and I can’t wait to check it out now. Does this work with pretty much all the social networks?

    Interesting I heard of Hootsuite I few times already and I heard it was pretty legit. What I like about it as you mentioned is that you can control all of your social media with one tab. Which saves a lot of time because instead of having to log in to each one and post to each one that’s so dreadful. I really am going to look into this. I know it probably cost money.

      Welcome Brandon , this is one of the best applications as concerns social media automation.You can try the free version to fully test it for as long as you like.

    Hey Tasos,
    I’ve always wanted to learn about Hootsuite but have never got the time to find out how they work. Awesome to know you’re writing about it, what a coincidence!

    Totally agree with you on social media being very time-consuming and I especially hate it when I have to set aside my own time to follow the ‘peak-hours’ of people just to finally share my posts. The scheduling part Hootsuite provides is very cool and would totally lift some burdens off my shoulders, thanks for the insight mate!

    • Tasos

      Welcome back Riaz , long time no see , I am glad to see you again and to find out you are shining and being active.

      Yes , Hootsuite saved me countless times , you can easily schedule anything.For example say you are reading some articles online that you find them very interesting and you want to share them on Twitter.Of course you don’t want to publish them all at once , you plug the hootlet and set the time and date on the go.Otherwise you would have to save an article on your browser and then you would have to remember to come back.

      Thank you for this visit and I hope you will love Hootsuite.

    You are right, social media is very time consuming when you have accounts at quite a number of them and feel obligated to makes posts on them all, reply to comments etc etc. That being the case I can really see the value in platforms such as Hootsuite that are designed to automate much of the process.

    I was once a member of some platform (can’t recall which one right now) that was supposed to automate my social media action, but it was a bit light on features. Hootsuite sounds a lot more robust in its application and has the power to achieve so much more.

    This is a long post and you certainly haven’t left anything out.

    • Tasos

      Exactly Darren , you covered all the important facts as concerns the usage of this application.Social media requires much of our time and yes , Hootsuite comes to save the day.And I want to underline here that beyond the overall value of the tool the education courses inside their website is something I was not expecting.Knowledge can really help our businesses shine in this very competitive social arena.

This is a very comprehensive review and I found it explained to me exactly what it can do and how it will help my business. I’ve been looking for this and not even knowing it haha.
