If you have connected a wide range of networks to Blog2Social, but don't want to share every post on all of them, creating network collections can be a real time-saver. With pre-selected network collections, you won't need to manually select or deselect networks each time.

Simply choose the network collection that best suits your needs. For example:

  • Visual Networks (Instagram, Pinterest, Flickr)
  • Business Networks (LinkedIn, XING)
  • Blogging & Content Networks (Tumblr, Medium, Torial)
  • Managing an agency? Group your clients' accounts into custom network collections for quick and easy sharing!

 

How to save a custom network collection (Pro and Business)

To do this, go to your Blog2Social dashboard and click "Networks". At the top of the page, click "Create new network collection".

  • Create your new network collection.
  • Go back to your network overview by clicking "Show all" at the top of the "Networks" page.
  • Next to each network, you will see three small grey icons—one shaped like a gear.
