Automatically Share Blog Posts To Social Media With Blog2Social

Automatically Share Blog Posts To Social Media With Blog2Social

Im 2015 we launched the first release of Blog2Social with the aim of simplifying the sharing and cross-posting of website or blog content on social media. Our objective has always been to streamline the process of sharing and cross-promoting blog posts across various social media channels. Our primary focus has been on developing a solution that automates the sharing process, while also allowing for individual customization and optimal scheduling. Our goal was to eliminate the drawbacks associated with robotic broadcasting while retaining the benefits of automated sharing. To achieve this, we invested significant effort in converting website or blog posts as well as any other content you create into optimized social media content, ensuring they are scheduled and shared automatically at the most suitable times for each network. Additionally, we provide users with the option to customize their posts according to their preferences.

We always appreciate receiving positive feedback from our users:

„Blog2Social removes all social sharing pain […] Blog2Social automates the social sharing I do immediately after posting,[…] makes it easy to repurpose and reshare old blog posts […] and allows me to schedule as many shares and reshares as far into the future as I like”

Scheduling for the best times to post on social media

The perfect timing can bei critical for your post to be noticed or go down in the endless stream of social media noise. .

We have done a bundle of research for you to develop a ready to use time frame to automatically send out your posts according to the best times on each network. The new release allows you to choose the Blog2Social best-time scheduler or set up your own best time scheduling plan.

It takes a lot of deep insight research and analysis to find out what works best for you. If you already did that research for yourself, set up your own best time settings for the times that work best for you.

When scheduling your post, just click “B2S best-time scheduler” or “My best time setting”. For both options you can always edit and save new time settings.

You can:

  • choose one time scheduling or recurring scheduling,
  • re-share old posts or
  • pre-schedule your planned, not yet published posts.

Re-sharing content and re-posting evergreen content recurringly

Everytime your share your posts on social media, only a fraction of your audience will actually see your post. So it might be a good idea to post your content more than once. But, be careful with re-sharing your content. There are implicit rules on how often to post on each network (Link blog post) that vary from network to network. Whereas it is ok to post as many as 3-4 times per day on Twitter, doing the same on Facebook may result in annoying your followers. The new Blog2Social scheduling feature makes it easier to plan, share and re-share your content recurringly:

  • Select how many weeks your content shall be published and select days and time.
  • Re-share your content to a specific set of networks only.
  • Re-share your evergreen content recurringly.
  • Share all of your post images on a successive plan.
  • Post in different groups with different comments.
  • And more

And with one more click you may save your setting as default for all networks.

Advanced Scheduling and Sharing with Blog2Social

Blog2Social is free to use it for auto-sharing and customizing blog posts to social media. More elaborate features for sharing and scheduling can be accessed with the Blog2Social Premium upgrade anytime.
