How to Share a Hub Post to Social Media using IHUBApp

Sharing your Hub posts to social media is a great way to increase visibility and engage your audience across multiple platforms. IHUBApp makes it easy to share your posts on Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), LinkedIn, and via a shareable link. This step-by-step guide will take you through the following:

1. Locating the Share Options on Your Hub Post

Once you've created your Hub post, you'll see sharing options for Facebook, Z, LinkedIn, and a general share link located at the bottom of your post just above the comments section. These buttons are designed to make it easy for you to distribute your content across your preferred social media platforms.

2. Sharing from Desktop

When using a desktop, sharing your Hub post is straightforward. You can directly see and select the platform where you want to share your post.

1. Ensure You Are Signed In

   • Before sharing, make sure you are signed into your social media accounts on your desktop.
   • Facebook: If you manage multiple pages or profiles, ensure that the correct account is active.
   • X and LinkedIn: Confirm that you are signed in to the appropriate accounts.

2. Locate the Share Buttons on Your Hub Post

   • After publishing your Hub post, you'll see sharing options for Facebook, X, LinkedIn, and a shareable link directly on the post.

3. Sharing to Facebook

   • Click the Facebook share button.
   • A new window will open, displaying a preview with the image and headline from your Hub post.
   • If you're logged into multiple Facebook accounts, you may need to switch to the correct one.
   • Add any custom text above the post if you wish.
   • Click Post to Facebook to share.

4. Sharing to X

   • Click the X share button.
   • A new window will open with a preview of your post.
   • Add a comment or relevant hashtags.
   • Ensure you're logged into the right X account.
   • Click Post to share your content.

5. Sharing to LinkedIn

   • Click the LinkedIn share button.
   • The LinkedIn sharing window will appear, showing a preview of your post.
   • Add any additional message if needed.
   • Confirm you’re signed in to the correct LinkedIn account.
   • Click Post to LinkedIn to share.

6. Using the Share Link

   • If you prefer to share your post on another platform, use the share link option. Copy the link and paste it where you want to share.

3. Sharing from Mobile

On mobile devices, the process is slightly different. Instead of seeing individual platform buttons, you’ll use the share link, which will display available apps based on what you have installed on your device.

1. Ensure You Are Signed In

   • Before sharing, ensure that you are signed in to your social media accounts on your mobile device.

2. Locate the Share Link on Your Hub Post

   • After publishing your Hub post, tap on the share link button. This will open the sharing options available on your mobile device.

3. Sharing via the Share Link

   • Tapping the share link will present you with a list of apps installed on your phone that can share the content.
   • Select the app you want to use (e.g., Facebook, X, LinkedIn).
   • The app will open with a preview of your Hub post, including the image and headline.
   • Add any custom text or hashtags as needed.
   • Complete the post by tapping the Share/Post button in the respective app.

Additional Tips for Effective Social Media Sharing

• Customize Your Message: While the image and headline are automatically pulled from your Hub post, consider adding a personalized message or call to action to engage your audience.
• Use Hashtags: On platforms like X and LinkedIn, use relevant hashtags to increase the visibility of your post.
• Engage with Your Audience: After sharing, monitor interactions and respond to comments to foster community engagement.

By following these steps, you can effectively share your Hub posts across social media, whether you’re on a desktop or mobile device. This will help increase your content's reach and engagement, driving more traffic back to your Hub.
