HS 2.0: HootSuite Gets a Makeover
HootSuite is one of very few services that I have used on a consistent basis in the past few months. I love jumping from one service to another to get more things done on Twitter, but HootSuite has everything I need to manage my Twitter accounts without having to spend hours dealing with confusing and information overload. The service breaks down my account for me so I get more done and learn more things about my performance on Twitter.
HootSuite 1.0 was certainly a capable service and let me manage my multiple Twitter accounts without having to log in and out of different accounts all day long. But the new HootSuite is twice as much powerful and sets the bar really high for competing services.
The new HootSuite is not only a professional Twitter client, but it also helps you track your clicks, monitor your brand, and work better in teams. You can manage lots of accounts on HootSuite, and their tabbed view makes it so easy to find out what people are talking about and what they are saying about you and your brand. You can also schedule your messages as well. Best of all, you get to open many windows on your page and track your replies, direct messages, pending messages, and Twitter messages all from one place.
Manage Multiple Twitter Accounts with HootSuite
Twitter API has enabled many talented developers to express themselves through their innovative applications for the Twitter platform. Twitter may be a great service but it’s not perfect. Thanks to its API, it doesn’t have to be. There are so many Twitter applications available these days that it would take weeks for one to go over them all. But you can always tell if a developer gets it by testing her application for a while. The guys behind HootSuite do get it. They have come up with an application that kills multiple birds with one stone. Hootsuite not only allows you to manage multiple accounts on Twitter, you can also schedule tweets for a future date.
You can also shorten your URLs easily using the functionality provided on the interface. HootSuite makes managing multiple profiles like a piece of cake. All you got to do is choose the right box on the right side of your screen, and you can tweet using that account. You can also add multiple users to manage your profiles. Maybe you want multiple people to tweet on one account. That is also possible using HootSuite.
HootSuite also comes integrated with Adsense and Ping.fm. You can make money every time someone clicks on your ads on Ow.ly. You can also send your blog RSS feed to your Twitter automatically using this service.
Overall, if you are looking to set up a corporate Twitter account with multiple users or just want to schedule your tweets, you should try HootSuite. It’s free and extremely powerful.
