Today we are reviewing our usual allotment of six great plugins.
John
Scheduled Tweets
https://wordpress.org/plugins/scheduled-tweets/
The Lowdown:
Twitter is a useful tool for marketing and helping to keep your message in front of people. The hard part with it is you have almost always had to manually do the tweeting. This plugin eliminates that issue by allowing you to schedule tweets from inside your WordPress dashboard. You can create and schedule a single tweet or multiples and even set up a campaign of tweets to track their progress. All in all a pretty great plugin.
