Oomph – Social Oomph
Oom Pah Pah it is not!
Tweet Later was an easy name to remember. But alas, it is now Social Ooomph! Egads, that name is even worse than twitter! But, the service is good and so is the price – FREE.
Yah yah, the basic service is free – but it works for me, for my needs. Here is what you can do for free.
Send An Automatic Welcome To New Followers - This can be the most crucial part of your follower contact. They are online and interested in twitter now, not the next day when you happen to login and notice you have a new follower. Besides, how do you currently track who is new!
Schedule tweets – If you have a rush of adrenaline and have lots of tweets you want to do, you can space them a part. This makes you look like you are awake and functioning when you are actually passed out on the couch or just enjoying the daylight.
Autofollow – You will automatically follow anyone who follwes you. Not only is it a common coutesy to follow anyone who follows you, you are likely to be dropped if you do not follow them.
View Mentions and Retweets – A quick recap of who has mentioned or retweeted you. Find out which people respond to your tweets and focus on them.
Track keywords on Twitter – This is essentially your own search engine. One that works for automatically. You’ll get an email showing you who has used whatever keyword you are interest in.
URL shortening and Tracking – Here is a great way to see how many people actually click on the links in your post. Do you currently know that now?
Save and reuse drafts – This works great for common text and url’s you use. Of course you can also list them in a sparate notepad file too (do whatever works best for you).
Vet new followers – Here is a common cause/term of confusion. This process lets you interupt Autofollow & Autounfollow so you can weed out unwanted and irrelevant people.
Cleanup your Inbox – This automatically removes direct messages older than 7 or 30 days. A nice little time saver.
Personal tweet engine – You can schedule added tweets that do not go into your twitter profile.
Mutiple Twitter Profiles – Now you can manage mutiple twitter profile from one Social Oomph account for free.
Now some of you people are in a real twitter twap and need more tools than the casual twitter does. Not so surprisingly, the social oomphers have more tools and twicks for you – for a small additional monetary sum (money) you can get the professional version.

Social Ooomph is so much better than this video! - Now with RSS to Twitter too! It is also a top recommended twitter tool with free features.
Autounfollow – Is a service now included in the follower hub site along with superb search tools for zeroing on on targeted twitter users.
Social oomph has just added their url shortening service with tracking for free.
“The URL shortening and click tracking service is available to everyone with a SocialOomph account, free and Professional, at no charge.”
“URLs can only be shortened with dld.bz from within your account in the SocialOomph system. We do not allow general public access to the shortening service.”
Another good reason to choose them for your professional tweet tool!
Scheduled Tweets – New Feature
Social Oomph added a that they call ‘drip feed’. In essence it lets you set up scheduled tweets to your twitter profile. They call each schedule a ‘queue’ that includes your your pre-written tweets.
I have found that the ability to upload pre-written tweets is a feature that is lacking in most automatic tweeting programs. I an glad to see it added to Social Oomph. However, this drip-feed feature is not part of the free account, you must upgrade to the pro version to take advantage of this option. But when you sign up for a free account you can use the pro features for free for 7 days.
Their free triaL offer is also nice. If you do not want to upgrade to the paid version, your account automatically switches to the free status – you do not have to do anything to cancel the pro services.
Drip Feed
“Connect one or more update reservoirs to a social account and/or feed more than one social account from an update reservoir. The system drip-feeds the updates to the social accounts. All you need to do is fill the reservoir. You don’t need to worry about scheduling the updates. “
