These strategic acquisitions show Automattic’s commitment to innovation in both open-source tools and AI-powered solutions.

Harper, a grammar checker designed for developers, will be integrated into tools like WordPress.com, WooCommerce, and Jetpack.

This update gives users valuable insights into the performance of their embedded social feeds, making it easier to measure engagement and impact.

Do you want to get more social media traffic and followers for your website?

Every smart marketer knows that sharing good content across your social media accounts is a proven way to boost traffic and engagement.

However, the problem is that social media sharing and account management can be very time-consuming for business owners.

What if you could easily share your blog posts the moment you publish them, automatically schedule to re-share popular posts for maximum exposure, and have the ability to manage all your social media accounts right inside WordPress?

If you’re like me and most other smart website owners, then you have at least wished for this solution at least a couple of times.

Today, I am excited to announce ClickSocial: a game-changing social media management plugin that my team built for our own internal use, and I am happy to share it with YOU, our WPBeginner community.

Imagine having the power of Buffer or Hootsuite, but integrated directly into the WordPress dashboard. With ClickSocial, you can simply connect all your social media accounts to start scheduling and publishing social content right away.

BONUS: There’s an awesome social media calendar there for better visibility, too.

Introducing ClickSocial

Background Story – Why ClickSocial?

Growing an audience on social media is a big challenge for most business owners. And posting regularly with engaging hashtags and visuals takes up a lot of time.

This becomes even more time-consuming when you want to connect with your audience on different social sites like Facebook, Instagram, X previously known as Twitter, etc.

While there are several social media management tools on the market, the problem is that they are not designed for WordPress. This means they limit your ability to drive social media traffic to your website.

Of course, you can promote your blog posts through RSS feed syndication. But since they’re automated and not optimized, they’re less likely to drive engagement and traffic to your site.

Plus, there is no easy way to revive old posts for more traffic.

So, I asked my team to build a social media management tool for WordPress users so you can easily engage your social media audience and drive more traffic to your website.  

That’s how ClickSocial was born.

With ClickSocial, you’re not just scheduling posts … you’re optimizing your entire social media strategy.

From one-click link embeds to easy media uploads and automated content revival, ClickSocial is an all-in-one solution for social media management – all within the familiar WordPress dashboard that you know and love.

Simply Click to Schedule Social Media Posts Directly From WordPress

Sharing your blog content on multiple social media platforms is one of the proven methods for getting more traffic to your website.

Luckily, ClickSocial makes it super simple to connect all your social media accounts, including Facebook, X/Twitter, and Instagram, with your WordPress website.

Then, you can simply click to share your WordPress post straight from the WordPress block editor:

Share on ClickSocial

This will immediately launch the ClickSocial quick share interface. From here, you can type in your post description and insert videos or images directly from your WordPress media library.

Compared to traditional social media scheduling tools, this helps you save you a ton of time that you previously wasted on searching for your post URLs and featured images.

Plus, you can draft social posts for all your platforms from the same interface. No need to jump back and forth between different dashboards.

ClickSocial quick share editor

You don’t even need to manually choose when your post will be published.

ClickSocial lets you automate the social media publishing schedule for your WordPress posts.

These include:

  • Publishing the social post instantly on multiple platforms when your blog post is published.
  • Adding the social post to the next available pre-defined slot in your social media calendar.
  • Creating a draft and saving it to your ClickSocial dashboard.

Streamline WordPress Social Media Management

Looking for a way to keep track of all your upcoming social media posts? ClickSocial’s dashboard brings everything together into a simple Social Media Calendar visual interface inside WordPress.

You can easily look at your future social posts in a straightforward calendar view:

ClickSocial calendar

This allows you to keep track of:

  • Recurring campaigns like monthly online giveaways and holiday sales
  • Upcoming product launches and other announcements
  • Regular social posts sharing your latest blog posts

Want to schedule a new social media post without opening up the blog post or content editor? ClickSocial lets you do this directly from the calendar view.

Just choose the social platform you want to share on and enter your text and hashtags. Then, you can click to link to the blog post:

ClickSocial scheduling tool

From here, you just need to pick the blog post you want to share from your list of published posts and click ‘Add to Schedule’.

This will automatically insert the link and featured image into your social post with a single click:

Choosing a post to share in ClickSocial

Ready to share the post now? Just click on ‘Publish’.

Otherwise, you can pick the exact date and time you want to schedule your social media post from the dropdown menu. This makes it super easy to choose a time when your target audience will be online and engaged.

ClickSocial schedule time and date

Revive Old Posts Instantly to Boost Social Traffic

I believe the #1 mistake beginners make is publishing a blog post, sharing it once, and leaving it to die in the blog’s archive. This leads to content decay.

Have you started losing traffic to some of your older popular blog posts? Re-sharing them on social media is a great way to instantly increase engagement and get more visitors to your website especially when a lot of the posts are evergreen.

This is why I had our team design the Revive Posts feature.

Using ClickSocial, you can pick the date range of the WordPress posts you want to re-share and even include specific tags and post authors.

Filter revival posts

After picking the social media accounts you want to share on, you can also set up a post template and a custom schedule for publishing the social media posts.

In the dashboard, you can easily see your upcoming social media schedule with the posts, dates, and times:

Scheduled revival campaign

Save Time with Automated Sharing Templates for Social Media

Do you usually post on social media at the same time? There’s no need to pick the date and time every time you schedule a social post.

Instead, you can set up a custom schedule for your brand with specific days of the week and posting times:

ClickSocial schedule settings

And what if you want a specific format for all your social posts?

ClickSocial makes this even easier by letting you create templates for your posts with dynamic variables like:

  • Post title
  • Excerpt
  • Short post link
  • Categories as hashtags

This way, you can simply automate your entire social media publishing strategy.

Effortlessly Collaborate With Your Social Team Within WordPress

Running a social media agency or working with a large team?

ClickSocial’s built-in collaboration features allow you to work together in the WordPress dashboard by:

  • Assigning permissions to different team members to control who can schedule, publish, and review content.
  • Reviewing, approving, and leaving feedback on social posts.
  • Sending custom alerts to all members of your team.

These features allow you to streamline your editorial workflows, maintain high-quality content, and keep everyone in the loop.

For example, you can easily drop a comment on a social media post in the queue before it’s scheduled. This allows you to make sure that all your content is high quality.

Leaving feedback in ClickSocial

How to Get Started with ClickSocial

ClickSocial is available to all users with a 14-day free trial. You can start by creating your account on the ClickSocial website.

ClickSocial signup

ClickSocial API keys

Make sure to copy the API key once it appears on your screen and go back to your WordPress dashboard.
