11 Free Online Tools for Blogging and Social Media Marketing

March 10, 2014 By Erik Emanuelli 52 Comments

There are many tools available online, which can let you track, monitor, automate or help you in any other way during your social media marketing campaign.

May be you need to know the trends of the moment and you want an inspiring idea to create your next blog post or you want to manage one of your social media account, automating some process that otherwise will take you a big part of your time.

I am sure you will find something interesting and useful in this list.

Let’s see the 11 free online tools for blogging and social media marketing.

 

 

Tools for Twitter

1. Followerwonk

Followerwonk provides valuable information on your Twitter account with the ability to compare your followers with those of other users.

2. Tweriod

This is perhaps one of the most useful tools.

Tweriod analyzes your account with a particular attention to the moments in which you generated more engagement.

In this way you will know what is the ideal time to tweet and you will reach the largest possible audience.

3. JustUnfollow

This useful site lets you manage easily your Twitter followers. It’s free up to 100 daily actions.

I’ve been using JustUnfollow since a good time already in order to clean up my inactive followers.

(Ouch, Lady Gaga is not following me…). πŸ˜‰

4. JustRetweet

C’mon, is there any blogger or internet marketer who do not know and use this amazing site?

JustRetweet is fantastic if you need to expand your social media audience and promote your content.

Tools for Facebook

5 – Conversation Score

Discover the influence you have on Facebook with an infographic created instantly just for you.

Conversation Score, after analyzing your page, will provide information regarding your relationship with those who follow you, your habits, the percentage of likes in your posts and other useful statistics.

6 – LikeAlyzer

LikeAlyzer analyzes your Facebook page and gives you advice on how to improve your presence and your appeal, relying on dialogue, timing and posts that you have posted.

Search Tools

7. Open Site Explorer

Open Site Explorer is basically a search engine for links.

It enables you to find all the sites that link to your website (or anybody else profile, if you are curious).

When someone is linking to you, it may give you huge SEO benefits, depending on some crucial factors.

This site can help you check other blogs in order to establish relationships within your niche – or to just keep an eye on your competition!

8. Google Trends

Google Trends is a very useful tool when you have to write a new post.

In order to gain as more visibility as possible, it is suggested to write about something which is the trend of the moment and this tool lets you know what topic is hot on the web.

Miscellaneous

9. Quicksprout

Quicksprout scrutinizes your site from top to bottom, giving you precise details on SEO, SMO and comparisons with competitors.

10. Content Idea Generator

Content Idea Generator, rather than a real instrument, is a title generator of posts ready to make you smile.

Simply enter a keyword in the box and you will get a nice title with a lot of sarcastic comments.

11. Down for everyone or just for me

Sometimes the doubt assails you : ” Is the site down for everyone or just for me?”

You can enter here the link to the website you are trying to reach immediately, in order to get a response on its status.

I hope that you will find useful this list of tools that you can consider for your blogging and social media marketing.

    Thanks for compiling this list together, is really helpful and to be honest, I only have heard and use just few of them, most on this list are new to me.

    But I’ll like to add one Twitter tools I used almost every day – unfollwers.me. This twitter tools sent you notification via email every day about users who just unfollow you and if there’s no one in the day that unfollow, it reply 0 unfollow for the day.

    Thanks Erik.

    Hi Erik
    First time on your blog and found great list.
    I only have used Google trends and Open site explorer, after your recomendation in above post i checked out Content Idea Generator, Everything i searched in it made no sense. Either i was using it wrong or something else can be the reason.
    Can you suggest me something….

    Hi Erik,
    It’s a nice share. I am using 5 tools out of these 11 and Just retweet is my favorite among all of them. It’s a nice tool to get retweets which eventually helps to get more traffic.
    I’ll try my hands on new tools too.

    Hi Erik Sir,

    A list of very useful tools this is! These tools will definitely come handy and help boost productivity. Lots of them are new for me and few are familiar.

    I’m a user of JustRetweet. And it makes social sharing a cakewalk for me. It is really easy to use and makes the task of social promotion of posts real easy.

    Downforeveryoneorjustme is also a fantastic tool that I use sometimes. Majority of the tools are unexplored by me. Looking at their uses, I feel I can make good use of them.

    Thanks for making this list sir. I’m kingging this post on Kingged.com, where I found link to this post πŸ™‚

    Thanks for the useful tools – “Down for everyone” was very timely as someone was telling me my site was down – well it isn’t apparently.

    I enjoyed the title generator very much – that’s an area I really struggle with, so sure to come back to that one.

    Have a good weekend, Joy
