Heard about Hootsuite? It’s a hoot to use!

Twittering has evolved from a social “message burst” to a full-fledged social media tool, and more applications are being created around its unique appeal.
There’s a new player in this scenario, and it’s a great tool to use! The newest in social media, Hootsuite, is pegged as a “social media dashboard”, offering a lot of valuable Twitter resources for those of us that like to Tweet a lot or have multiple accounts.

Here’s are the reasons why we love this hot new tool:

1. Multi-tasking is a breeze.
Got two or more Twitter accounts? It’s easier to maintain these accounts with the Multi-Editing feature. Access and maintain your tweets in each account and still maintain privacy of your own Twitter password.  Switch back and forth or post to all of your tweets via the HootSuite dashboard and you’ll never have to log in and out again!

2. Ease in running a business.
With a Multiple Editors feature, you can have a “business” Twitter account, and have someone else Tweet information as needed, perhaps have one person tweeting about marketing promos, while another replies to direct messages you may receive!

3. No sweat tweet scheduling.
This tool makes it pretty easy to schedule your tweets using its date and time feature and send it out later. That way, you don’t have to spend all of your time glued to the screen and tweeting every so often.

4. Link shortening for optimum impact.
Links are shortened within HootSuite.  This savvy tool also enables you to monitor your mentions, even your retweets. It’s like a mini Google Analytics program for your tweets, where your tweets have metric value!

5. Light and easy on your computer’s memory.
HootSuite is internet based, so it won’t affect the performance and speed of the computer. Similar applications like TweetDeck take up a great deal of processing time on the hard drive.

6. Saved keywords.
This savvy tool allows you to save some of those keyword searches and recover them at the click of a button. No more searching or figuring out the keywords to join in a trend or continue one, as you can have them easily accessible.

7. Fantastic navigation.
Similar to the Twitter homepage and easily tabbed, the HootSuite dashboard is set up with ease in mind. Tabs like “Home”, “@Replies”, “DM’s”, and the like make it a no brainer to use.

Indeed, Hootsuite can transform the way your business engages on the web with its amazing features! It’s a great tool to use, and I give it two thumbs up!

If you happen to be trying out or looking for the best Twitter client to suit your needs, I hope this post has given you a fantastic new option. On the other hand, if you’ve already been using Hootsuite, let me know what your favorite feature is. Otherwise, feel free to share this post with your friends who may be searching for a great Twitter tool!

To Your Success,
