Updated 7 October 2026.

Why choose Postdom over Metricool

  • It makes the posts. Postdom makes videos, slideshows and single images from your website. Metricool's planning, analytics, inbox and SmartLinks all start once your team has made the post.
  • Approval on every plan. Nothing posts until you approve it, on Free too. Metricool lists post approvals on Advanced, from $53 a month billed annually (Metricool pricing page, checked 7 October 2026).
  • You pay about $1.30 for each finished post. Starter is $39 a month for 30 posts in any format, and posts you skip don't count. Freelancers charge $100 to $5,000 a month and agencies average $5,107 a month (WebFX, February 2026; Clutch, September 2026).
  • The formats are built on what gets views. Postdom videos put the hook in on-screen text over real clips and photos. In Postdom's study of 1,272 TikToks and Reels from 160 accounts, on-screen hook text went with 1.79x an account's usual views, and spoken-only hooks went with 0.62x.
  • A person on screen without filming. In Postdom's study of 2,138 TikTok posts, product brands' videos with their usual person on screen drew 2.51x their usual views, and videos with no person drew 0.42x. On paid plans, an AI persona is how Postdom puts the same person on screen in every video, with no camera.
