I don’t like how sometimes it is hard to control the way things appear across multiple social media platforms, notably posts with links.

Finally I could undertand the art of hashtags on Instagram, I'm just learning how to create copy with AI and the idea generator part is super cool. It is very useful.

I was hoping for a tool that could tell me when I will be ranked for which hashtags in order to build an effective strategy. Unfortunately this didn't work as expected. The price is way too high. The support leaves a lot to be desired.
