How Publer works
Publer has the power to unload the task of heavy Facebook users and make the social media platform a trouble-free, systematic and effective marketing tool. It can be called a superpower in the sense that it provides users with everything they need when they need it.
Publer allows users to:
Create, schedule, preview everywhere on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and Google My Business from the same platform. With Publer, you don’t even have to be on those social networks all the time as the system works for you.
AutoScheduling
Publer finds the nearest time slot from the current time based on the configuration provided. The system then checks if there are any scheduled posts. All you have to do is create a posting schedule according to your needs with the proper times and dates, labels and decide the post type, which can range from Links, photos, GIFs, URLs, etc.
Bulk Scheduling (CSV file, train sharing, multi-media uploader)
You don’t have to manually create your posts on Publer. You can import up to 500 videos, photos, updates and links at the same time to Publer’s bulk uploader using a CSV file or dragging & dropping them to the dashboard.
Automatically watermarks images and videos
Watermarking is the easiest way to secure your photos or digital work. It prevents the unauthorized use of the material. Watermarks are also used as advertising tools as they can immediately be connected to the company. The system automatically watermarks photos and videos, saving you time and effort.
Saved Drafts
Publer does not only post following a schedule or directly on the platform. It also allows users to save unfinished drafts or reuse old posts. The system has a Saved Drafts tab, which contains all the saved drafts for posting in the status update, links and others. Drafts can be saved in bulk.
AutoShare and AutoDelete
After posting, users can automatically share the post, schedule or repost it. Publer attaches the link to make it easier. There is also an AutoDelete option which is used to delete posts after a certain amount of time such as when the promotion/event is over. There are pre-defined AutoDelete options users can choose from.
Recycle
If you are into online sales and need to post your products all the time, you might find Publer a useful program. It has a reporting mechanism where you can select the days and number of times you want the post published. You can pause/resume the recycling process anytime.
Call-to-Action Buttons on Links and Videos
CTA buttons increase your accounts’ click-through rate. It is an invitation or call to viewers to act on your post. If you want them to visit your website, call or purchase a product, you can just choose the relevant CTA button.
AutoShorten URLs
Long links look complicated and distracting. Publer has partnered with Bitly, Rebrandly, Switchy, JotUrl, RocketLink and PixelMe to give you the possibility to shorten any link and also add UTM parameters. If you connect one of the shortening accounts with Publer, all the links will be automatically shortened if needed.
Group the accounts on your dashboard
The system allows you to coordinate your posts by grouping them on the dashboard. Just click on the group name and create/schedule posts per each one of the social accounts at the same time.
