Speaker 1: Welcome back to another video and for today, I'll be going over the 5 best free tools for scheduling your posts on social media. I personally know what it feels like to manually post your content on social platforms and the more content you create, the more you get recognitions on those platforms and posting manually is not going to help you in the long run. So that's why I've gotten the best scheduling tools that you can use completely for free in 2022. Now let's head into the video. At number 5, we have Crowdfire. Crowdfire is a social media management tool that allows you to discover, schedule content and manage all your social accounts in one place. But what we'll be focusing on today would be scheduling abilities. You can publish on a lot of social platforms like Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and Pinterest from Crowdfire alone. You can schedule your posts days and weeks ahead to give you more free time in the long run. You can also choose to set your own daily posting timing or you can allow Crowdfire to suggest the ideal time for each account. Every post will automatically be adjusted for each social platform. Additionally, before publishing, you can preview each post. For the free account, you can only link 3 social platforms and schedule only 10 posts per month. So if you're comfortable with posting twice a week, then consider using this tool. But my advice for anyone getting into social media management is that they should upgrade to the big plan and get up to 100 posts per month. Now on to the next tool. Now at number 4, we have Buffer. Buffer is a social media tool that helps you to build your audience organically and it is the best for solo users and teams. You can use it for a lot of things but let's focus on its scheduling abilities. You can plan and publish your content for Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and LinkedIn all from Buffer. It works especially with Instagram because you can directly post your carousel and story posts from the dashboard. You can add comments to all scheduled posts so as to not go directly to Instagram to add the comments. Plus, you get notifications after each post has gone live. For the free plan, it's the same as Crowdfire. You can connect 3 social networks and schedule 10 posts every month. I also suggest upgrading to the next plan to get the most out of Buffer. Now on to the next tool.

Speaker 2: At number 3, we have Planoly. Planoly stands out from other social media tools thanks to its appealing AI, its wide array of features and ease of use. Its capabilities to respond to comments on your posts is one of the features I like. Additionally, it offers an auto-post tool that is consistent and make it simple to schedule posts for particular periods of the day. You can organize your social content for Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest, Facebook and Twitter all in one place. Your account won't ever be in danger because Planoly is a certified Instagram and Pinterest partner. As a certified Instagram and Pinterest partner, Planoly seeks to open doors for businesses of all sizes to successfully implement their social marketing strategy easily from one dashboard. Planoly's free plan allows you to manage only one account but it makes up for that by allowing you to schedule 30 posts every month. And I would urge anyone who posts daily to definitely get this tool and get started with Planoly. But as a social media manager, it would be great if you are just starting out but as you get more clients, you should think about upgrading to the next plan. I would like to ask you for one quick favor, please don't hit the like button right now. Let's get back to the video. At number 2, we have Facebook Creator Studio. Facebook Creator Studio allows you to control the scheduling and publishing of your posts on Facebook and on Instagram. It helps you plan ahead and automate your posts by giving you more time to focus on creation and promotion of your content. This tool was created by Facebook for Facebook and for Instagram only and that's the only drawback I can get from this tool. But this tool offers a lot more in its posting abilities. For example, you can change the publish date of a new post or an already posted content and also choose when you want your post to stop showing up on the news feed. There's not much I can say on the Facebook Creator Studio but what I can say is that it's free and it's a well-organized tool for Facebook and for Instagram. Now on to the next tool. And at number 1, we have Socialoomf. Socialoomf is definitely the number 1 social media post scheduler out there and I will say why. It helps you control the timing of your posts for the best outcome in your time zone of your choice and allows you to spend less time worrying about when to post and give you more time to think about creating your content. Socialoomf automatically releases content to your social accounts from your post queues that you have created according to your fixed or varied schedules. It also helps you avoid confusing your followers with outdated information by creating posts that self-destruct after a period of time. Socialoomf also has a publishing limit that prevents you from accidentally posting too frequently while keeping your followers informed without annoying them. Socialoomf is a great free tool that works well for solo users and teams. They have also been providing scheduled social posting services since 2008. Socialoomf free plan allows you only one social account but outweighs every other tool on this list by allowing you unlimited social posts. I'm sure this is the tool you've been searching for. Every tool has its drawbacks and so does socialoomf. It doesn't support Instagram but it supports major networks like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn and Discord.
