Some are running Google ads, social media ads and some are working on the search engine optimization in order to rank their post on these search engines. In today’s era social media plays a key role for any successful business specifically blogs. So if you are running a blogging website, maybe you are posting several posts a day, then sharing those posts individually into different social media platforms is going to take a lot of time. Specifically if you are using WordPress, there are plugins you can purchase, or you can use the free plugins such as jetpack to automatically share blog posts on social media.

If you are a beginner, you must follow this step by step article to automatically share blog posts on social media while you are publishing your post into your blog.
