It really saves you a lot of time and also divert a lot of traffic to your website.\u00a0#gocarefree!!!<\/strong><\/p>\n When you post content out through your blog you want to promote it across all of your channels all of the time.<\/strong> But you \u00a0don\u2019t want to have to set up a tweet, Facebook update, LinkedIn update etc as this is time consuming. Dlvr.it <\/a>automates this. In Dlvr.it you specify the source where you want to pick the content up from and the destination where you want to put it.<\/p>\n When a new post is created dlvr.it will automatically send out your updates<\/strong>. \u00a0It currently supports Twitter, Facebook (business and personal), LinkedIn (business and personal), Google + (business page). App.net and Delicious. There is also very useful analytics in dlvr.it as well. \u00a0Because it uses it\u2019s only web address shortener it can track who clicks on your link.<\/p>\n Dlvr.it is a very reliable and useful tool that will save you a lot of time.<\/p>\n IFTTT allows you to automate a broad range of activities. \u00a0If a trigger event happens the automation kicks in and the corresponding action takes place.<\/strong> For example,\u00a0a new blog post is added and a tweet is generated. In IFTTT they have a concept of \u2018recipes\u2019. These recipes are individual tasks that can be automated. \u00a0When you log in you\u2019ll see over 4,000 to\u00a0choose from.<\/p>\n Each recipe has some ingredients! You have the source of what IFTTT is monitoring and then the resulting action. In the example if a new blog post is added to the RazorSocial queue then a tweet is sent to my account @iancleary.<\/p>\n If you can\u2019t find an IFFTT task amongst the 4k + examples you can also set up your own combination. Once you set up your IFTTT recipes you can forget about it and the automation kicks in every time<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Zapier is similar to IFTTT except you set up Zaps. A Zap is an individual automated task.<\/strong>\u00a0For example, a Zap could be a task that monitors YouTube and when it finds a new video then a tweet is automatically generated. There are over 250 services supported. These are the ones you specify where the trigger event kicks off.<\/p>\n You can use from the many Zaps that are available or you can build your own Zap.<\/strong>\u00a0They are very easy to set up.<\/p>\n Another alternative to Zapier is Cloud work<\/a>. This provides similar functionality but some different applications are supported so it\u2019s worth checking this out also.<\/p>\n Aweber is an email marketing tool with some essential automation tasks built in.<\/strong> When someone signs up to your email\u00a0list from social media you can automatically send some automated emails.<\/strong><\/p>\n The automated sequence of email helps nurture your email subscriber and eventually bring them to a point of sale. This automation is an essential component of your email marketing.<\/p>\n Postplanner is a Facebook page management tool that helps automate the sharing of content to your Facebook page.<\/strong> There is a content discovery engine which allows you to discover the most popular content in your industry and then you can add it to a queue for later delivery.
