How to use Hootsuite

Open your browser.

Type-in www.hootsuite.com

then press enter.

You can either

sign-in with Twitter,

…with Facebook,

…with Google +

…or create a new

account in Hootsuite.

For now, let’s create

a new account.

Enter your full name.

Enter your email

address.

Enter your password.

Then click

“Create Account”.

We’re done creating

an account.

Now let’s add the

social networks.

Click on the social networks you want

to add.

Every time you

choose a network,

…you will be asked to log-in and

authorize

…Hootsuite to be connected to that certain network.

For now, I’ve chosen Twitter and Facebook.

When you’re done adding your social

networks, click “Continue”.

Then click

“Done adding Social

Networks”.

Welcome to

Hootsuite Page!

Here you can see

tabs,

…which you can

rename.

If you want to add more tabs, click

+

Name your newly

added tab

Then add a stream or

social network.

You can create

numbers of tabs…

…to organize your

Hootsuite Page.

But first, let’s go back to our Personal

tab.

There are two ways

to add a stream.

First is through this

pre-made stream.

Choose whether you’re going to add a

network,

…or application.

Then choose what profile on what

account..

…you are going to

use.

I have chosen my

account in Twitter.

For this stream, I’ve

chosen “Followers”.

We now have added a stream.

The second way to

create a stream…

…is to click

+Add Stream

Choose from what network you want to

add a stream.

Select a profile.

Select the type of stream.

Click the + sign to add stream

A new stream

was added!

Now let’s just add a new stream for

Facebook.

For this, I chose “Timeline”

To compose a

message,

...to be posted in both Twitter and

Facebook

...hover over your

cursor on the arrow

…then choose the

profiles,

…you want to post

your message to.

I’ve chosen my Twitter and Facebook

accounts.

The “2” represents the number of

networks

…I’ve chosen to post

my message to.

Now let’s compose a

message.

Hootsuite also allows

you to add a link

…or attach an image

or a file.

To add a link, copy and paste your

chosen link

…then click “Shrink”.

When you’re done

with your message,

…click “Send Now”.

You can now see the

message

…you’ve composed on the streams you’ve created.

Save time and effort from posting to different social

networks!
