How to automate social media with IFTTT

Are you one of those social media managers sick and tired of copying and pasting the whole day? IFTTT

Have you ever wished to have a way to quickly add anyone who mentions your company via hashtags on Twitter to a Twitter List?

Would you love to automatically add your company Instagram pictures in a Facebook folder by only using a hashtag, or maybe to use that hashtag to schedule Facebook posts in Google Calendar?

Do you have only one company account to manage, and you do not want to waste your precious time either setting up a social media management software like Hootsuite or a browser extension for your tweets like Tweetdeck (they are pretty awesome, though!)?

Well, we got you covered! There is IFTTT at your service!

IFTTT, which stands for “If This Then That”, is an extremely powerful online service that connects services or channels together quickly, seamlessly and easily without using a single line of code.

In fact, it takes advantages of conditional rules and API, but you do not need to know how those rules are built or what an API is.
You just need to know that each action you have to accomplish can be done automatically by using these so-called “recipes”, which are applets that bring your social media accounts together to create a new management experience.

In November 2016, a major update of IFTTT has been rolled out providing even a better solution to its daily users.
