If the social media networks had their way, we would never use social media posting apps. Instead, they would have us signing into each social channel individually, doing all our posting, content management, and social interactions there. Indeed kudos must be given to all these social media apps for doing their best to get around some of the limitations placed on them by Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and the rest. However, as much as the social networks may prefer us to use their native apps for all our social activities, this can be incredibly difficult and time-consuming if you engage in social media marketing. None include built-in scheduling facilities, and it is not practical for marketers to go online every time that they feel they should make a post. Imagine Jeff Bullas, who averages 96 tweets per day every day, having to go onto Twitter every 15 minutes, 24 hours per day, seven days per week. It would either drive him mad from lack of sleep (and time to do anything else) or require him to pay staff around the clock simply to monitor his Twitter account. Social media marketing apps play a critical role in making bulk social media posting viable. Without them, the industry would never have evolved to the level it is today.

Best Social Media Posting Apps for 2023:

1. Brandwatch (Formerly Falcon.io) Brandwatch claims that over 30,000 marketers use their social media posting app for their social media management and list some high-profile clients, including Diesel, Coca-Cola, Toyota, Tui, Greenpeace, and Columbia University. It clearly targets serious social media users, with the cheapest plan (Essentials) costing $108/month after a 14-day trial. The Essentials plan offers you a content calendar and campaign planner, advanced analytics dashboards, community management, and in-app support. As the plan’s name suggests, small to medium-sized businesses will find all they need to run social media campaigns across most social platforms, although restricted to one user and five channels. Larger businesses may prefer the Full Suite, which has customized pricing. You can ask for a demo of this before deciding whether the additional features will benefit your organization. The Full Suite gives you all the features of the Essentials plan, but it allows unlimited channels, reporting, and teams. Also, it adds in social media advertising (which you can set up, organize, and monitor your social advertising within Brandwatch), competitor benchmarking, collaboration & approval flows, custom onboarding, and 24/7 support. Brandwatch’s content calendar provides a view of all scheduled content. It shows your posts scheduled by date, clearly identifiable by social platform. You can plan, schedule, edit, and post across multiple networks. You may prefer to use Campaign Planner, in collaboration with your team members if you have the Full Suite. You can use this to map, create a brief, roll-out, and collaborate on campaigns across all your social platforms. Brandwatch supports image, video, Instagram Stories, and Facebook carousels. You store all your content in Brandwatch’s version of a shared media library called the “Content Pool.” Your Content Pool integrates with your preferred digital asset management tool or favorite cloud storage platform. 4.8 out of 5 stars A consumer intelligence platform, a social media marketing platform, and an influencer marketing platform were all acquired and forced to play well with each other—and they do!

View 2. Loomly The first thing you notice when using Loomly is its clean, uncluttered interface. The first time you use the social management app, Loomly launches a well-structured, helpful wizard, that is effectively a guided tutorial. As you go through the wizard, you will begin by setting up a calendar, giving it a time zone, and selecting the most appropriate industry. You can choose whether you wish to use Loomly for your posting, or whether you would prefer to integrate a Buffer account. You set various preferences, so Loomly clearly understands the type of posts you like to share. Calendars are central to the successful operation of Loomly. One of the essential stages of setting a calendar up is to decide on your preferred workflow. These are the steps you go through when making a post. If a single person autonomously creates your posts, you might have a simple workflow. If you use a team for your social posting and require approval at various steps, your workflow will be involved. When it comes time to create and schedule posts, you will go through various steps (the exact sequence depends on your preferred workflow): Set Post Details Select Social Channels (from Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, Pinterest, and Google My Business) Define “base” content – content that you’ll be able to tweak for each platform in step 4. Fine-Tune Each Channel Target Audience & Promote – Facebook (Optional) Loomly provides a detailed dashboard, giving all the analytics you need about your posts. Loomly also offers an Interactions feature where you can manage comments, messages, and track social handle mentions (through tagging). 4.5 out of 5 stars This cloud-based marketing solution works best for freelancers, influencers and social media managers looking to best manage content on social media platforms.

View 3. Sendible An essential part of Sendibles’s social media management is its use of Services. These are like channels or profiles that you create within your Sendible account. Services allow you to select which features you need from a social platform. As with most of these social media posting apps, Sendible allows you to schedule posts. You can plan and schedule content either individually or in bulk. Sendible’s scheduling feature allows you to deliver posts to all social networks, incorporating images and videos where required. Queuing a message in Sendible can be complicated but powerful. It gives you a considerable amount of flexibility. Sendible also uses Smart Queues to help you share evergreen content. Sendible includes a Priority Inbox, which brings together all the messages your brand receives that require responses. 4.5 out of 5 stars Sendible's SaaS solution helps businesses manage their social media strategies. Sendible supports multiple platforms for larger businesses; the integrated dashboard helps users build a samless workflow for their company.

PromoRepublic PromoRepublic’s principal point of difference is its powerful design feature. Not only can you create and schedule posts in PromoRepublic, but you can also do much of the design work in the app, without having to open a specialist graphics program. You can use PromoRepublic to schedule and share posts with all the major social networks, including importantly for such a visual app, Instagram, and Pinterest. It also offers quite strong scheduling tools. You can set a posting schedule for different types of posts. Indeed, it suggests a suitable posting schedule for each of your social networks, although you can easily modify this if you prefer more control over your posting. You organize your posting schedules across a centralized calendar, which you can display in many different ways. It comes with 100,000 post ideas that cover a wide range of topics. Most are pre-designed, with eye-catching graphics. You can easily modify and customize their post ideas in PromoRepublic’s graphics editor to suit your business. You can also select the appropriate dimension of what you want to create with a single click for each type of social post. 4.4 out of 5 stars PromoRepublic is an all-in-one marketing platform for global businesses and marketers.

5. AgoraPulse AgoraPulse is a fully-featured social media management program. This means that you can use it for considerably more than just a social media posting app. However, its price reflects this, so you are unlikely to use AngoraPulse if you simply want to schedule your social posts. The heart of AgoraPulse is its Inbox. It shows your comments, mentions, conversations, and reviews relating to each of your social accounts. It also includes a social listening function, where firms can keep track of mentions of their brand name. AgoraPulse offers multiple ways to publish content. You can schedule a post by clicking the appropriate time slot in a calendar. It also provides a bulk publish feature, where you import posts from a CSV file, a website using RSS feeds, or as a group of pictures to transform into posts. You can use these to create a queue (dropping new content into your queue as needed). It gives you the ability to take a close look at your fans and followers. You can click on your more active followers, label them however you like, view your past activity with them, and add relevant notes. 4.5 out of 5 stars Agorapulse is a social media management platform stocked full of features for individuals, businesses, and enterprises.

Hootsuite Rather than bundling all of its services into a single app, Hootsuite has chosen to create separate apps for different purposes. This means that if you want a social media posting app, without all the additional bells and whistles like social listening and in-depth insight, you can simply sign up to the main Hootsuite app for a reasonable price. The core of Hootsuite is Streams. You set up a tab for each of your social networks on the Streams page. Then, for each social account, you add a series of Streams. Each Stream is a column of information. For instance, if you run a Twitter account, you could create streams for each of your Twitter lists, your Scheduled Posts, Mentions, Twitter Home page, and the list of tweets you make. Hootsuite also includes a unified inbox, showing all your incoming messages across your accounts. Hootsuite includes a variety of ways for you to publish posts, depending on your requirements. One is to click on the big green New Post button at the top of the Streams page that takes you to the Composer page. You can compose your post directly on this page. The composer changes the options it makes available, depending on the social networks to which you’re trying to post. You can also create content on the Publisher screen. Publisher is Hootsuite’s scheduler. If you have already posted or scheduled content, it will show in your Planner. You can create a new post on this screen by clicking the green New Post button, or you can save some time by directly clicking the time for which you want to schedule your post. 4.6 out of 5 stars One of the first platforms designed to streamline social media management, Hootsuite continues to be one of the market leaders.

9. Buffer Like Hootsuite, Buffer splits its product into components. Its core app is Buffer Publish, where you create and schedule your posts. If you have higher needs, you could consider subscribing to Buffer Reply (their engagement tool), or Buffer Analyze (their detailed reporting tool). Once you hook up your social accounts, you can easily create new posts within the app. The higher plans also make it extremely easy to add content from other sources, such as your favorite blog. Your options on the free plan are limited, but you can create (and schedule) up to ten posts. Buffer’s capabilities improve once you opt for a paid plan, however. They give you a great deal of flexibility when it comes to creating posting schedules (which are essential for the buffer to work). You set a publishing schedule for each of your social accounts. You can click on any posting time to edit or delete it. You can add any relevant text, images, videos, and links. Once you’ve written your post, you can schedule it for a set time or add it to your queue. 4.4 out of 5 stars Buffer is one of the most popular social media scheduling platforms.
