Best for social sharing and auto-posting on WordPress
Social Snap is a WordPress plugin for share buttons, follow buttons and auto-posting, from $39 a year for one site. The page says the lower price is for the first purchase and renewals cost more without saying how much, and it only works on self-hosted WordPress.
Who Social Snap is for
- Fits if you run self-hosted WordPress and want share buttons with counters
- Makes sense if you want auto-posting and are happy with the $99 plan
Who Social Snap is not for
- Not for you if you want to try it, as there is no free plan or trial
- Skip it if your site isn't self-hosted WordPress
- Pricey if you want auto-poster or social login: addons need Pro at $99 a year
- Watch out: the renewal price isn't stated, and the page says renewals are at full price
Why Social Snap gets a 2.0
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- BValue for moneyPlus is $39 a year for one site, about $3.25 a month, but the page says a discounted first-purchase price applies and doesn't give the renewal. Pro is $99 for 3 sites.
- FFree plan and trialNothing is free: no free plan or trial, only a 30-day money-back guarantee.
- CFeatures34 share providers, 40 follow networks, counters, statistics and meta tags. The listing's gap: auto-poster, social login and boost old posts are addons not in Plus.
- CEase of useNo store rating on record. A WordPress plugin you install and configure.
- BPlatforms and integrationsSelf-hosted WordPress only, with Bitly and Google Analytics, across social networks. No other site platforms.

Keep Social Snap, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace Social Snap you would be making email sent in volume that still reaches the inbox. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 41 of the 54 other popup and widget tools grade higher. It costs $39 a year.
What you could make
- Reports: an app builder makes this well.
What you could not
- Email sent in volume that still reaches the inbox.
- Sharing with other people, which means accounts and invitations.
What this rests on. Social Snap’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
