Write Once, Post Many? (WP, Facebook, Twitter, etc.)

I'm looking for an app that will allow me to write a blog post, and then also post a notice that I've written a new blog post or an extract on Facebook, Twitter, etc.
I could write something myself to talk to those APIs but I'm sure someone has already done this...?
Blog is Wordpress, though I'm thinking of switch to Hugo.

Is it a self hosted wordpress? Try Social Media Auto Publish plugin
https://wordpress.org/plugins/social-media-auto-publish/
or you can try:
NextScripts: Social Networks Auto-Poster
https://wordpress.org/plugins/social-networks-auto-poster-facebook-twitter-g/
Maybe you could try IFTTT?
WordPress has a plugin that does that and it's jetpack
definitely worth the try
I use https://dlvr.it
I wrote those for Yii2 modules, but should work for any PHP 5.5+ code
Post to FB Page
`use Yii;
use Facebook\Facebook;
class MFacebookHelper extends \yii\base\Object
{
public function postToFacebook($message, $url, $description, $image=null)
{
$params=array();
$params["message"] = $message;
}`
Post to Twitter
`use Yii;
use Abraham\TwitterOAuth\TwitterOAuth;
class MTwitterHelper extends \yii\base\Object
{
public function postImageToTwitter($message, $url, $description, $image=null)
{
$params=array();
}
`
Redacted - not clear
I wrote it. if you can find the same code on the web i'll give you a penny & a unicorn.
I used IFTTT for over a year, and think is the best app do to a lot of things.
Wasn't talking about you
EDIT: Removed it for the sake of clarity
NextScripts +1, I have the paid version. I think it is the all round best solution to this problem.
Did you try Shareaholic, I've been using it for a long time and it's really good. It's free and worth using.
