Buffer

One of the hottest social media managers at the moment, Buffer gives users a free way to schedule posts on Facebook, Twitter, Google+ and LinkedIn. You can schedule posts ahead of time by linking up your accounts and viewing stats from a web browser or the mobile application. It’ll even give users tips on how and when to post.
