Write once, publish everywhere.

Share up to 30 times per month for free with Jetpack Social, and upgrade to share as many times as you want!

Grow your following by sharing your content with Jetpack Social!

It’s important to publish on both your website & social media in order to reach your whole audience. If you only publish on social media, you’re missing up to 60% of adults on a daily basis. Jetpack Social makes it easy to automatically share your site’s posts on popular social media channels such as Facebook and Tumblr. Increase your audience by engaging your site’s viewers & your social followers.

Manage all channels from a single hub to save time

Don’t have the time to keep up with social media? Jetpack Social pushes your site’s posts and products to all your social media channels in one place, with just a few clicks.

Set it and forget it!

Jetpack Social has scheduling tools that allow you to set your posts to publish at the time and day that works for your plan. Schedule your posts in advance so you’re not chained to your desk and publish at the time of day your fans are most engaged on social media.

Social Image Generator

With the Jetpack Social Advanced plan, you can have engaging imagery created automatically using the Social Image Generator feature. You can overlay custom text onto your images and choose from a variety of styles to increase engagement on your social posts. Most importantly, you’ll save time by doing it all within the WordPress editor.

Organic Content Sharing

Boost your social media engagement with Jetpack Social’s Organic Content Sharing feature. Research indicates that manually published posts receive 50% more interaction compared to shared links. Our feature allows you to select custom images, videos, and text to share your blog posts as native social media content, enhancing engagement and saving you time. This feature is available with the Jetpack Social Advanced plan only.

FAQ

How do I connect to social networks?

From your site’s WP Admin:

  1. Navigate to Jetpack → Social.
  2. Click on the Manage Connections button.
  3. Click Connect next to the social network you want to connect to.
  4. Log in to that social network site and authorize the connection.

You can connect to any of the following networks:

  • Facebook Pages
  • Tumblr
  • LinkedIn
  • Mastodon
  • Instagram Business

After you add a new connection, you have the option to make the connection ‘global’, meaning it can also be used by any other user on your site who has the ability to publish posts.

To make the connection available to all users, check the box labeled “Connection available to all administrators, editors, and authors”.

To which social media platforms can I post using Jetpack Social?

You can post to Facebook, Instagram Business, Tumblr, Mastodon and Linkedin. We are working hard to increase our social share integrations.

How do I share a post on social media using Jetpack Social?

To configure the Publicize options when writing a new post, click the green Jetpack icon at top right of the edit sidebar.

You’ll then see the Publicize options under the Share this post section, where you can toggle social media connections, connect new services, and write a custom message to be used when your post is shared.

How do I add a custom excerpt to my social posts?

The easiest way is to use the Custom Message option in the publishing options box prior to publishing your post.

I am loving the Jetpack Social Notes update! It could use some features like tags and comments, but overall I really like this addition to my blog. Social Notes make it easy for me to post quick thoughts without investing in full post writing, and having the posts auto publish to my LinkedIn profile have actually boosted engagement and traffic. I recommend trying Jetpack Social Notes.

It works and I love that jetpack gives the possibility to create a community over time.

So I thought I'd give Jepack a social chance and at least appreciate that they finally provide individual functions independently from the juggernaut Jetpack. Unfortunately, Jetpack social sticks to the woefully outdated XML-RPC and simply doesn't work without it. So again it didn't disappoint and nothing changes. Maybe that will change over time with one star reviews.

Fairly easy to set up and automate your posts within Wordpress and soc med sites. I had an issue where I was using EA duplicate to duplicate some postsm but the custom message was being duplicated too. Working with Paul from the support on the plugins forum, we discovered the issue and solved it.
