8 Best 𝕏 (Twitter) Scheduling Tools

The best thing about Twitter is the real-time interaction it allows businesses to have with partners, vendors, customers, and prospects. But the best thing is also the worst thing: to have real-time interaction, you have to be on Twitter all day, and in business you can’t afford that.

Unless you can hire a full-time social media manager to tweet, post updates, and otherwise engage with people online, you need to plan your tweets ahead of time and use a platform to publish them for you.

To help you find the right Twitter scheduling tool for your business, we’ve compiled this list of free, low-cost, and enterprise-level platforms.

Free & Low-Cost Twitter Scheduling Tools

1. Twitter Scheduler

A convenient, free way to schedule tweets is by using Twitter’s built-in scheduler. Here’s a quick guide to get started:

• Open Twitter and click the blue “Post” button from the menu on the left.
• Type your tweet, set your audience, and add images, GIFs, or hashtags as needed.
• Click the schedule icon at the bottom of the composer (next to the emoji icon).
• Choose your preferred date and time, click Confirm, and then select Schedule.

To view or manage your scheduled tweets, simply click the blue “Tweet” button on the left menu, go to “Unsent Tweets,” and select the “Scheduled” tab. Here, you can easily edit or delete any scheduled posts as needed.
