Seriously, I do use CirclePix to post daily on our FB business page but, follow them closely to be sure they are posting informative posts for the consumer.

I typically post events or links to articles that I have written on my website or here in the Rain.

I do not use Hootsuite any longer - I prefer to load them myself - it makes me keep a better check on the biz page daily.

Gary, if you blog on AR, you can easily post to the most popular SM sites. If you choose to use other resources you must keep track of which recourse used to publish otherwise you end up with duplicate posts.

I am looking for a SM Dashboard that has GOOD post creating and edit tools.  TO date, the following do not have sufficient edit/compose resouces:

  1. Hootsuite
  2. Sendible
  3. Social Booster
  4. Buffer
  5. Sprout Social

I have 8 to go.

Buffer, Hootsuite and IFTTT.  Now, shutting down/scaling way back those social media accounts (zero results, no need for them in my business, unwillingness to do the post types and quantities the experts recommend).

More effective?  Not sure about that.  I use a plugin on my WordPress sites. When I post on my WP sites it posts to my FB business page, LinkedIn, and Twitter.  I manually post to G+ when I feel like it. Which is rarely.
