2. At the outset, you must specify the platforms and websites where you wish to submit posts. Click on the topmost icon in the left vertical toolbar, click on ‘Login’ beside each website that you wish to add, select the ‘Default Profile’ and supply the login credentials for the website to complete the process. Repeat the same steps for every website that you wish to add.
3. Click on ‘Create Submission’ to send / schedule a post with multimedia content and select and add the file to be uploaded from your local disk. Next, choose the template to be used and click on ‘Yes’. This will bring up the submission editor.

5. Click on ‘Websites’ and select the websites that you have added in the above steps. Add the ‘Description’ for the content using the Rich Text Editor, specify all the website tags separated by commas and click on ‘Post’ or ‘Schedule’ at the bottom right depending on whether you have scheduled a date and time for posting of the submission.
6. If you haven’t scheduled the submission, it will be queued and sent out immediately to all the selected websites as soon as you clicked ‘Post’. If it was a scheduled submission, it will be saved in the ‘Scheduled’ container, moved to the Queued’ container at the prescribed time and posted.
7. You can also click on ‘Save to Template’ at the bottom to save your settings such as selected websites, tags, description and more so that you can use it in the future for similar submissions.

Downside:
- Although Postybirb attempts to transform your text into a valid submission for the target websites and also allows you to provide tags, there may be some incompatibility and limitation in supporting each websites specific requirements. Hence it may not always work as intended
- The Navigation and Aesthetics of the application are not satisfactory and user friendly. You need to spend some time with the application to figure out how to use it and where to click.
Verdict:
Overall Postybirb is a good application that helps you to automatically Post and Schedule Multiple Submissions to Social Media and other Websites making the process very easy, simple and less time consuming. You can focus more on the content and its quality rather than spending too much time in posting it to the desired websites.
