Auto Post New Topics to Social Media

This is a good way to get your social media account suspended, I had this happen to one of my Twitter accounts for a website (build on Wordpress) I was working on that had a plugin which auto posted new posts on Twitter. You could get away with this if the amount of new topics/posts where limited (the social media platform will decide on what it considers “a lot” of new auto posts).
