Use your Website as a free and simple social media tool for a maximum of 5 Zapier Webhooks. 
Each hook can represent a different social media channel (or possibly any connection Zapier offers).
Save time and money as you don´t need any paid third party software to start with if you don´t want to.
Just like for standard posts you got a separate section in the WordPress admin for Simple Postings including categories and tags. 
The only difference is that you can select an Alt-Tag and the social media channels (Zapier webhooks) where you want it to be sent.
Like scheduling a standard post you can schedule your Posting for a specific date. 
As soon as you hit the Planning-Button the Posting gets sent to every activated webhook which schedules your data in Buffer for example.
Every Posting consists of a title, a text, a featured image and an Alt-Tag for this image. No videos possible.
Tipp: After scheduling a Posting you can replan it for another date and reuse it.
<h3>Who is Simple Posting for?</h3>
Simple Posting is for any person who is mainly posting text with image on social media channels like Facebook, Instagram or LinkedIn.
<h3>Important Note</h3>
Please note this is a Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) plugin. 
You need a free <a href="https://zapier.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">Zapier</a> account to use this plugin. 
Zapier itself uses other third party connections where your data is transferred.
