Recommended/Convenient Social Share Plug-In for Agencies w/Multiple Accounts!

[RezStream8]

Hi! What is a recommended social media share plug-in (SEO-friendly) to implement across multiple websites (desktop & mobile) for an agency? Also, does the suggested social share plug-in provide a dashboard to review multiple accounts via one location?

Hootsuite is awesome....and SEOMoz Pro members can get a discount I think.

Do you mean like an addthis  type of thing, but more agency friendly?  If so I can't think of a good one, but I'd quite like to find one myself!

Agreed!! The problem we'd like to solve is being able to manage multiple accounts from one location rather than setting up multiple add-this accounts and checking in separately. Would you recommend setting up these accounts individually and measuring through social tracking via Google Analytics (that's what we're currently using for tracking)? Would that be optimal?

[matbennett]

We currently use multiple add-this accounts and use the information from their reporting emails, rather than checking-in that much.  I wouldn't call it optimal, but it does for our purposes when combined with analytics.

However I am not a massive fan of some aspects of addthis. I can also see that 1 account per site is going to get more and more annoying as time goes on.  I can definitely see me looking for this same solution before too long.

Thanks!

Hi again,

Actually, it seems that you can now do this in addthis using profiles.  http://support.addthis.com/customer/portal/articles/381216-using-profiles#.UIpencXA83Q & sharethis allow a similar set-up through domain access http://blog.sharethis.com/2012/03/01/sharethis-adds-domain-access-manager-for-analytics-sharing/

Bit of a slow reply, but your post came back to mind when I was having similar thoughts.

Either of those any use to you?

[RezStream8]

Yes!!!! Thank you!

I'm glad...

Well, sort of anyway.  The reason I started digging around more was that I was thinking that would be a great product to put together if no-one was doing it.  Happy you have the solution you were looking for, but slightly disappointed that you didn't lead me to a great business opportunity!
