Add a social account to Getyn Social

Adding your social accounts to G Social is the first step in saving time on social media. Instead of signing in to each social network separately, you can use Hootsuite to manage activity for all your connected accounts in one place. Learn which social account types you can manage with Hootsuite in this article.

 

Each G Social plan type lets you add a different number of social accounts.  If you reach your plan limit when adding social accounts, remove an account to make room for a new one.

Generally, everyone has one social profile per account when they sign up with a social network, like Twitter or Instagram. Facebook and LinkedIn are a bit different. With those social networks, you could have access to multiple account types, including your personal profile, as well as Pages or groups. Pages and groups are also considered account types in G Social
