Technology News

Technology Tuesday is also called Tech Tuesday. These tech events occur on Twitter. People share their tech discoveries with the hashtag #TechTuesday or #TuesdayTech.

In honor of Tech Tuesday, these are my recommendations for free online tools.

As you read this article, you will discover free tools to save time in the areas of video-editing, SEO, and social media.

Vimeo:
I just discovered the Vimeo video editor. Although the tool doesn’t provide free stock images and video clips, I would use Vimeo again.

I liked how I didn’t need a 3rd-party tool like YouTube to be able to generate embed code to be able to put the video in my blog post.

Pinterest Downloaderr
Pinterest allows you to download images but not videos. There are many free 3rd-party tools that allow you to paste the video link and then download the video.
Downloading Pinterest images is even easier since you can download Pinterest images straight to your smartphone or desktop computer.
The link to provide source credit is available when you download.
For the less creative types like myself, being able to download videos and images legally is a huge time saver.

Splice Appr
If you prefer to make your own videos, you can use the Splice App for iOS.
Splice is free, easy to use, and popular due to the extensive music library containing over 6,000 tracks.
If you don’t need a video editor that provides free stock images and video clips, and you are using an iOS device, I recommend Splice.

MozBar
SEOs spend a great deal of money on SEO tools. Moz, in fact, charges somewhere in the neighborhood of $100 per month to use Moz SEO tools.
Using MozBar saves you that cost. For free, you can use the keyword research tool with unlimited monthly queries. In addition, you can check the Domain Authority Ranking of your website and your competitors’ websites. You can also conduct competitive analysis by seeing your competitors’ meta descriptions.

Free Word Cloud Makerr

You can do so with a Word Cloud Maker.

ative.

Instagram Story Viewers for Desktopr
Have you heard you can post Instagram stories from your desktop?
If so, what’s your favorite? Both Inssist and Combin are free. Although Combin is 100% free, Inssist is my go-to tool for posting stories to Instagram from my desktop. Inssist provides relevant hashtags that save me time.
You can see both paid and free choices for Instagram desktop story viewers here: https://www.mostlyblogging.com/instagram-story-viewer-online/
