The Big List of The 61 Best Social Media Tools for Small Business

Banana Republic and Susan’s Neighborhood Shirt Shop could be using the same social networks—Twitter, Facebook, Google+, etc.—but their marketing plansand their marketing tools are likely quite different. Enterprise solutions are great for the big guys, but the rest of us are in the market for something more our size.
Small businesses are eager to find valuable tools that take a lot of the time and trouble out of social media marketing and that do so without costing an arm and a leg. I think we’d all want tools like that, right?
Well, I went searching for just this kind of simple, easy, cost-effective tool, and I came up with 61 that made the cut. I tried out more than 100 in total, and I’m sure I missed a few along the way (please tell me in the comments or onTwitter which ones deserve a look).
Hopefully you find one or two here that you can use in your small scale marketing that can get you big results.

Buffer

Before we get in too deep, I wanted to plug a social media tool I’m quite partial to (for obvious reasons). I use Buffer every single day to build a queue of the content I curate and send it out on a regular schedule to my various timelines. It’s simple and easy, and the intuitive analytics on each post make it a breeze to see which posts performed best.

Okay, now on with the lists…

Dashboards / Management Tools

SocialBro

A complete Twitter management tool (that also comes complete with Buffer integration), SocialBro can tell you everything you want to know about your Twitter account—community information, analytics on all your posts, and much, much more. There is a 15-day free trial to test out all the features.
SocialBro
Put this tool to use: The community insights are fascinating, and there’s some real value to be gained from the tweet analytics (pictured above), which show you which posts got the most engagement and when.

Tweetdeck

Now owned by Twitter, Tweetdeck is one of the most popular tools for complete Twitter management. Tweetdeck lets you track, organize, and engage with your followers through a customizable dashboard where you can quickly see at-a-glance the activity from different lists, followers, hashtags, and more.

Twitter Tools


Followerwonk

Followerwonk is one of our favorite ways to analyze and optimize our Twitter accounts at Buffer. With Followerwonk, you can do all sorts of amazingly helpful things like analyze your Twitter followers, compare different users, and search through bios—all for free. There are even more features—like tracking and sorting your followers—that you can access with a 30-day trial.
Followerwonk screenshot 2
Put this tool to use: One of our favorite uses of Followerwonk is to take the time-of-day charts and  sync to a Buffer account. You can also take a close-up look at various stats from those you follow to see which accounts you could maybe prune (because of factors like inactivity).

Social Rank

This Twitter tool identifies your top 10 followers in three specific areas: Best Followers, Most Engaged, and Most Valuable. Your engaged followers are those who interact with you most often (replies, retweets, and favorites), your most valuable followers are the influential accounts, and your best followers are a combination of the two. Social Rank will run the numbers for free and show you the results today then follow-up each month with an email report.
Social Rank screenshot
Put this tool to use: Social Rank can help you hone your Twitter focus so that you are aware of the followers who might deserve extra attention. You can even place these MVPs onto a specific Twitter list.

ManageFlitter

For quite awhile, I read the name of this tool as Manager “Filter,” which actually isn’t too far off from what ManageFlitter does. The Twitter tool helps you filter who you follow: Easily unfollow those who don’t follow you back, those who’ve never changed their profile photo, and those who are inactive.
ManageFlitter
Put this tool to use: You can batch select these groups of inactive or non-following users in order to give yourself a better following count (and closer to a golden ratio).

Must Be Present

Must Be Present

Tweriod
Find out when you’ll receive the most exposure for your tweets by letting Tweriod analyze your account. The Tweriod reports break it down into daily and hourly windows when you can expect the highest engagement with what you share.
Tweriod
Put this tool to use: If you use social media scheduling apps for your automation, it goes without saying that sharing at optimal times would be best. Use your Tweriod insights to check your scheduling, or plan your social media drivebys around this time.

Tweepi

Tweepi has a number of useful Twitter features, many of which fall into a couple categories: Managing your followers, and supercharging who you’re following. For management, you can unfollow in batches those who don’t follow you back, and you can bulk follow another account’s complete list of followers or who they’re following.
Tweepi
Put this tool to use: Tweepi’s detailed info on your followers can give you ideas on who to follow or unfollow. Try the cleanup section to bulk edit your connections on Twitter.

Tweet4me

To schedule tweets from any app, simply ask Tweet4me to do it for you. Once you’re signed up with Tweet4me, you can send them a direct message that contains a certain prefix, containing information on when and what to post.

Put this tool to use: If you find yourself double-booked and needing to post to Twitter in 30 minutes, Tweet4Me could be your saving grace.

Commun.it

Twtrland

Twtrland gives you a snapshot of your Twitter profile and can even track Facebook and Instagram for you as well. Two of Twtrland’s most helpful tools are a live count of how many followers are currently online and advanced search functionality tha tincludes keywords, locations, and companies.
Twtrland
Put this tool to use: Local companies can perform a location search to see which area accounts are most popular and potentially worth following.

NeedTagger

A super-powered Twitter search tool, NeedTagger runs language filters and keyword searches to determine which Twitter users might need your product or service. Sounds too good to be true, right? The tool shows you real-time search results and sends a daily email digest of new finds.
Needtaggr
Put this tool to use: Build a Twitter list of potential customers so you can learn and understand their needs and how they communicate.

Tweeter Spy

The Twitter click tracking at Tweeter Spy can tell you which tweets result in the most traffic back to your site. To install, you’ll need to insert a line of code at your website, then you can manage your Twitter click stats right through Tweeterspy.
Tweeter Spy
Put this tool to use: Tweeter Spy has a neat feature that allows you to “Say Thanks” (with a tweet) to  Twitter profiles who refer big traffic to your site.

Twitter Feed

For those looking to feed an RSS of a blog straight to your Twitter, Facebook, or LinkedIn profile, Twitter Feed has you covered. Simply enter your feed, connect your social accounts, and send your posts away, complete with tracking tools for follow-up.
Screen Shot 2014-04-20 at 12.47.42 PM

Put this tool to use: You can track your first and last name here to see what’s being mentioned about you outside of direct @-replies. You might be particularly interested to peek at the links and influencers associated with your name.

Topsy

Topsy is as a powerful search engine for Twitter content. Want to know how a certain term is being used on Twitter? You can search links, tweets, photos, videos, and influencers.

Facebook Custom Audiences

Upload an Excel file or link directly to your MailChimp lists. Facebook will create a custom audience based on which of your contacts is on Facebook. This feature can be added by clicking on the Audiences link inside Facebook’s Ads Manager.
Screen Shot 2014-04-20 at 7.44.51 PM

Social Media Monitoring Tools
