A lot of people struggle to keep up with social media when their websites begin to get popular. But I'm here to let you know that it's ok and you can work one day on your social media per month if you want 
How can you reduce your headaches with social media? You can use something called HootSuite to automate a lot of your work.
What HootSuite does is help you schedule posts, respond to comments or questions, gives you analytics on everything and lets you reduce the time spent on social media so you can focus on bigger tasks.
HootSuite has a few different membership levels ranging from Free to Enterprise. Free being the lowest one and only allowing you to manage 3 social profiles with limited analytics and Enterprise being the membership level that has all the bells and whistles.
The Pro plan is what the majority of users will get because it has plenty of features to help with everything you need on social media platforms. And the price may be the biggest seller since it's only $9.99 a month. The only downside to the pricing is that it's billed annually. But you get a free 30 day trial to make sure you like it before you actually pay anything
The Business plan comes with a few extras like social campaign templates, a social media certification to show your potential clients, and the ability to use vanity URLs to show people what you links are about before they click through. I'm not sure of the pricing on the business plan because I haven't tested it out, but I would assume it's between $19.99 and $29.99 a month which would also be billed annually, most likely.
After testing out the pro membership level for a couple weeks I've come to the conclusion that HootSuite is pretty awesome and I will probably go ahead and pay the $9.99 a month (billed annually)
So go check it out if you want to help automate your social profiles and keep users engaged. You literally have nothing to lose because there is a free 30 day trial
Do you, or did you, like it? I may just have to test them both out at the same time to see if I can get them working well together and then post a tutorial here I would have to keep my computer open/on at my house 24/7 and convince the people where I was to download teamviewer so that I could log into my computer and access my software lol. And even then I'd run into problems because I would need to allow my own access from my house. I guess I could do a remote access like how I use to access my servers over seas when I had them for all my software, but even then I'd need to remember my remote access info and my software login. Web based systems result in a lot less headaches
I've never even heard of Buffer before lol :D Do you, or did you, like it?
I've checked out mass planner, but haven't looked at it for at least a year now. When I did check it out it looked more of a social media marketing tool and not a social media management tool for the profiles you had already created. Hmmmm maybe if you combine hootsuite and mass planner you can hit social media pretty hard :D I may just have to test them both out at the same time to see if I can get them working well together and then post a tutorial here :D :D
I've never really been a huge fan of software until I started using them for SEO purposes. I do like the fact that I can access web based systems from any computer as long as I remember my login info. If I go over to a friends house and have to manage something due to an emergency, I can't do that with software :( I would have to keep my computer open/on at my house 24/7 and convince the people where I was to download teamviewer so that I could log into my computer and access my software lol. And even then I'd run into problems because I would need to allow my own access from my house. I guess I could do a remote access like how I use to access my servers over seas when I had them for all my software, but even then I'd need to remember my remote access info and my software login.

I've never used Hootsuite before, but I've heard about it. Personally I like too much websites that provide free and paid version of their service to its users. Also, web based apps are more better than softwares, because they are always online and can be managed from anywhere.
I have only one account for the moment, so I should give a try, as they allow up to 3 accounts in free version. This post just reminded me something that totally I had forgot, so thanks for sharing! :D

However before you go and check them out I suggest you have a look at Mass Planner too. They are $9.95 per month and you can connect 2 profiles per social network (Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Google Plus, Pinterest and Instagram).
The only thing that I am not so keen on with Mass Planner is that it is software that I download to my computer on all the time and connected to the internet, whereas Buffer and Hootsuite are online. I much prefer online tools to downloadable software!
But Mass Planner is much more powerful and useful to me. It can find groups and join them, plus send out marketing campaigns to a large number of groups at a time.
On top of this I can add multiple campaigns and multiple distribution lists to suit my needs. One of the things I like the most is the fact that I can set my posts to be added back into the list in my campaign meaning that I don't have to spend another day adding my content in next month! All I have to do when I create new content is add it into the relevant campaign to be sent out forever!
Check it out, they do have a 5 day free trial. It is a pain in the ass to set up at first, but well worth the effort! Thanks Razzy for sharing this great tool! I used Buffer for a good few years and it seems to me that Hootsuite and Buffer are very similar in what they offer and their pricing.
