Our blog has been going strong for about eight months now (please hold your applause) and a lot of you follow us on Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest, and Facebook (and if you don’t, you should!) Anyway, managing a blog and four social media accounts while traveling the world and juggling different time zones can be hectic! That is why Crowdfire has been a big reason for our success! We have be relying on Crowdfire since the early days of our blog and we prefer it over the other big names in social media management companies.
So what is it?
Crowdfire works similarly to Buffer or HootSuite. It allows you to schedule posts across your different social media accounts, choose times, and attach photos. One thing about Crowdfire that we fell in love with was their content curation. They provide hundreds of articles relevant to your focus that you can share on your accounts to help spread the word for fellow bloggers as well as keep your audience engaged.
What makes it better than the others?
One of the functions of Crowdfire that makes it stand out is their “To-Do” section. This makes it easy to schedule your own posts, find similar posts to share, find similar Twitter accounts and tweets to follow and like, as well as suggest followers to unfollow. Having them walk you through the steps of what needs to be done each day makes it so much similar and easier to stay on top of your social media accounts.
Why should you use it?
Most (if not all) of these types of services are “freemium” meaning you can use them for free but to get full access to all their amazing services you have to pay. Buffer for instance only allows you to have a certain amount of accounts on the free version. That is the main reason we never used Buffer. Crowdfire on the other hand, allows you to connect all of your accounts, they simply put a cap on how many posts you can schedule per day.
Honestly, we would not be recommending it if we didn’t completely stand behind their service. If you are a blogger struggling to connect your social media accounts, or maybe you just want to be internet famous. Check out Crowdfire for all your social media needs!
