S is for: the best Social Media Tool

Ever gotten to a point where you thought posting to your Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, and you various social media outlets was a pain? Have you gotten to the point where remembering to post every 4 hours for your giveaway was cutting into your blog planning? I know that I have been in this situation more than one time. It got to the point that I stopped looking at my twitter because it was too much to keep up with. But fear not, I am going to give you the best tool that I have found! 
HootSuite! If you guys have never been to HootSuite then you are missing out. And for those of you who do use it you know what a life saver it can be. HootSuite is literally your one stop for all of your social media. Being connected to your outlets is a 24/7 thing and you want to have easy access. 
For my hootsuite dashboard I have my Twitter Feed, Facebook, and Twitter Mentions up where I can view them. 

I can view comments on Facebook, favorite tweets, and catch up on my feeds. But the best part about hootsuite is that I can schedule posts. If you are doing a give away or entering in a give away, you can schedule that tweet to go out every day. Talk about convenience! It is also a dream for scheduling sponsor content. In a matter of minutes you can have all of your posts for the next month scheduled and ready to go. 

To schedule all you have to do is, write your post and hit the little calendar Icon. Your screen should look like this. 

It also gives you the word count for twitter, and shrinks your links for you! No more having to go to another site to shrink your hyperlinks. Now if you don't believe me, check out Living in Yellow's The Ten Best Tools for Bloggers post. Hootsuite is Number 7 on her list of helpful tools! Plus they now have a mobile app, so that you can schedule from anywhere, anytime!
