Nice post. All the options are very nice. But my personal favourite is Blog2Social. So far i have faced no issues. Not only you have a single dashboard which will help you post across platforms but also it requires no cron job done. You just have to simply install and activate it.

Thanks for stopping by. I have never heard of Blog2Social; I’ll check it out now 🙂 We are currently using Easy Social Share Buttons it’s by far one of the most advanced social sharing plugins I have tested. Monarch is also great I use it on many of my niche projects.
