Social Media Management Applications Online

What are Social Media Management Applications? Why we use them?

Social Media factor is quite important for every businessman and web-developer/blogger. There are millions of people attached to different social media platforms like Facebook, twitter, LinkedIn and more. Business persons build their stable position over these social media platforms and introduce their business to the people connected from all over the world, deal with their clients and share all the essential updates relevant to their business. Bloggers/web-developers use that platforms to introduce their services to the millions of people.

But, there are several different social media platforms, not only a single one. So, sharing of even a single update on these different platforms by logging in every site individually is the time-consuming task.

That was considered as an issue and was resolved by the development of Social Media Management Applications.

Twitter is the second most used social networking website after Facebook with lots of unique visitors each month. Huge Number! also you too have an account on (Twitter) and if not an active user you must be reading tweets, posting new tweets or re-tweet or favorites etc at least once every day. Despite of your daily tour to twitter, am sure many of you are not aware of keyboard short-cuts that can actually save tons of your time which can be used for other productive work.

These keyboard shortcuts are not discovered but, are actually listed on the main site of Twitter. Follow the below steps to check the shortcuts listed on your twitter home page.

You can compose a new tweet by just clicking that letter ‘n’. No playing with the mouse. Just click ‘n’ and start writing.

2. r “Reply”

If you want to reply to a tweet, just click r. A word of caution, you have to first select the tweet in order to revert. As other shortcuts, it does not work on Home screen.
Quite obvious! how can you reply while at the home screen.

3. f “Favorite”

Favorite a tweet is although simple by mouse click, still in case your mouse isn’t functional, use ‘f’ to favorite any tweet but, do select it using J-k as ‘f’ also does not function on home page.
