Buffer: Scheduling Your Social Media Content





Buffer is an application that allows you to connect with several different social media sites and then schedule out content to your profiles on those sites. As of right now you can connect Facebook,Twitter, LinkedIn, and Google+ to Buffer. It's a great application to use to have content consistently posting out to your sphere.


How to Schedule with Buffer:


  1. Set your weekly schedule for when you want your content to post.
  2. Find an article you want to share and highlight the url of the webpage.
  3. Paste the url of the article into Buffer where it says "What do you want to share?" A preview of how the article will be viewed on your social media sites will then appear. From there you can add your own status to go with the link.
  4. Select which social media profile you would like the post to go to. You can choose to have it go to all of them at once or certain individual sites.
  5. And finally select "Add to Queue". You even have more scheduling options such as having the post go to the top of the queue, sharing it immediately, or even giving it a unique schedule date that is different from your weekly posts.

PRO TIP:
Which ever day your work week usually starts on, take out some time in the morning and schedule the rest of your week out. That way you won't have to scramble to find an article to post later on in the week.

PRO TIP 2:
Install the Buffer extension for Chrome. After you install the extension, simply click on the Buffer logo on the side of your browser's address bar to schedule your post instantly. Save time and the hassle of copy/paste. You can download the Chrome extension HERE.
