Is there a single PHP API to post to multiple sharing sites (Twitter, Reddit, Linkedin, etc)? [closed]

Question

Is there a single PHP API to post to multiple sharing sites (Twitter, Reddit, Linkedin, YouTube etc), or do I have to use multiple APIs? Or is there an online service that will do this via, say, a REST interface?

Does Youtube really count as a sharing site? – Swansdown

Answer 1

Good question, I know a lot of people use hootsuite to update multiple networks however I didnt see anything about an API on their site. In searching i found two that looked ok and offered APIs. They both update ~40 services however I didn't see reddit or youtube. You can check them out though, maybe you're able to link one account to another like facebook lets you do with twitter. Anyway the sites are:

http://ping.fm

http://hellotxt.com

Answer 2

Ping.fm supports quite a few services and has an API.

There is no single API for all services, so to speak, but there are multiple GitHub projects that do this!

• Social Share URLs
• Sharer.js

I personally contribute to both of these projects on GitHub! Even though there is a "support" button there for contributions for Sharer.js, they go to the project owners -- and I'm only a contributor, not a project owner!
