The social media marketer should know what are the best tools on the web to increase traffic or leads. You can find here most effective tools used by  top social media marketers . These are the crucial and engaging social media marketing tools that you should use in your day to day activity.

There are many tools out there that can help you do your social media marketing better and with more results. A lot of people opt for free solutions because they can’t afford to buy a tool. But, one thing that I always say is “A free tool might be good, but not as a replacement for your paid tool.

 Biteable

Creating content for social media is an essential part of the game. Visual content gets three times more engagement on Twitter than plain ol’ text, so good visual content can help you take it to the next level.

With Biteable, you can easily create engaging, entertaining, and informative short videos to share on social media.

With a host of free video templates, footage, music, and animated scenes, Biteable is a godsend for anyone who wants to create studio-quality quickly without needing expensive resources like film or sound recording equipment.

Biteable was created to be super easy to use and one of the cheapest tools of its type on the market. Most features are available even with free accounts (it’s pretty cheap to upgrade to Premium anyway) so why not add a bit more excitement and spark to your social media content by creating some short, super-shareable videos?
