Social Media Scheduling

[Kevin]

As I have a US publisher, I often have to schedule twitter posts to co-inside with US or UK time.

Currently I use twuffer.com, which doesn't allow me to post images.

I've been trying bufferapp.com but it keeps changing the time of scheduled postings to silly times like 2AM NY time. Does anyone else find this? How do you stop this from happening?

Guess what? Unlike twuffer, I have to stick to Sydney time for it to work properly.

How else do you guys schedule your social media and what do you schedule?

I don't do much scheduling these days, but I previously used Hootsuite. However, each release introduced more bugs and there's a major one that still hasn't been fixed (in the iOS version) after several updates.

I switched to Buffer. I wish there was a better alternative to Hootsuite but for now I use the iOS Twitter app for reading and Buffer for scheduling.

I don't believe scheduling is all that important. Fellow authors (or painters or musicians) can re-tweet your promotional tweet at any time of the day or night. It's the re-tweets that reach the largest audience, and sometimes they happen hours or even days later.
