このガイドを信頼する理由
I’ve used Buffer for two years across four client accounts. Every step here comes from real hands-on use, not vendor screenshots.

Buffer is one of the most widely used social media management tools available today.
But most people only ever touch the scheduling tab.
This guide shows you how to use Buffer feature by feature.
Step by step, with screenshots and pro tips that actually save time.
バッファチュートリアル
This How to Use Buffer tutorial walks through every feature in order. You start with setup and finish as a confident user.

バッファ
Schedule social media posts across Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, ティックトック, and X from one dashboard. The free plan connects three social channels with no card required. Paid plans start at $5 per channel.
Bufferを使い始める
Before any feature makes sense, finish this one-time setup.
約3分かかります。
ステップ1:アカウントを作成する
Go to the Buffer website and click Sign Up.
Enter your email, create a password, and confirm your 仕事 タイプ。
✓ チェックポイント: Check your inbox for the confirmation email.
ステップ2:ソーシャルメディアアカウントを接続する
Click Connect Channel and pick a platform.
Buffer supports Facebook, Instagram, X/Twitter, LinkedIn, Pinterest, and TikTok.
Authorise access when the platform asks. Free accounts get three social accounts.
Here’s what my own dashboard looked like after connecting:

✓ チェックポイント: Each connected channel shows an avatar in the left sidebar.
Step 3: Set Your Default Posting Schedule
Open Settings, then Posting Schedule.
Add a posting time for each day you want to publish posts.
Confirm your timezone here. A wrong timezone quietly ruins every scheduled post.
✅ 完了: Your account is live and ready for every feature below.
How to Use Buffer Social Media Scheduler
ソーシャルメディアのスケジュール管理 lets you schedule social media posts across every connected account from one place.
Draft once, then publish posts to Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and X on a set posting schedule.
以下に、その使用方法をステップごとに説明します。
Step 1: Open the Publishing Tab
Log in and head to the Publishing tab.
Pick the social channels you want this post to reach.
ステップ2:投稿を作成してカスタマイズする
Type your content, then click “Customize for each network.”
これがその様子です。

✓ チェックポイント: Your post appears in the queue with a date and time attached.
Step 3: Add It to the Queue
Hit the queue option to drop it into the next open slot.
✅ 結果: Your post will publish automatically at the next scheduled posting time.
💡 プロのヒント: Set a new posting time for each weekday first. The queue system then fills those slots in order, so you never touch a calendar again.
How to Use Buffer Content Manager
コンテンツ管理 keeps your drafts, saved ideas, and scheduled posts organised in a single workspace.
Store rough ideas as drafts, tag them, and pull them into your queue when you’re ready.
以下に、その使用方法をステップごとに説明します。
Step 1: Open the Create Space
Click Create in the upper right corner of the dashboard.
Dump every rough idea here without publishing anything.
Step 2: Tag Your Content
Add tags so related posts group together by campaign or topic.
これがその様子です。

✓ チェックポイント: Tagged drafts show up under their tag filter in the content list.
Step 3: Move a Draft to the Queue
Open any draft, edit the copy, then send it to your queue.
✅ 結果: You have a running idea bank instead of a scattered notes app.
💡 プロのヒント: Tag by campaign, not by platform. For example, tag every launch-week post together. Buffer already splits データ by network, so campaign tags give you the one view analytics can’t.
How to Use Buffer Content Collaborator
コンテンツコラボレーション lets your team review and approve posts before they reach your audience.
Invite teammates, assign approval rights, and stop typos from reaching your followers.
以下に、その使用方法をステップごとに説明します。
ステップ1:チームメンバーを招待する
Open Settings and send an invite to each teammate’s email.
Step 2: Set Approval Permissions
Mark contributors so their posts need a manager’s sign-off.
これがその様子です。

✓ チェックポイント: Contributor posts land in Drafts marked “Awaiting Approval.”
ステップ3:確認と承認
Open the Drafts view, read the post, then approve or send notes.
✅ 結果: Nothing reaches your social accounts without a second pair of eyes.
💡 プロのヒント: Give your contributors a short brand 声 doc. Approvals get faster when everyone writes in the same tone from the start.
Buffer AIアシスタントの使い方
AIアシスタント suggests post ideas, writes drafts, and rewrites copy for you in seconds.
The AI Assistant drafts posts, shortens them, or translates them without leaving the composer.
以下に、その使用方法をステップごとに説明します。
ステップ1:コンポーザーを開く
Start a new post and click the AI Assistant icon.
It’s available on every plan, including the free one.
ステップ2:明確な指示文を作成する
Describe your goal, audience, and tone in one prompt.
これがその様子です。

✓ チェックポイント: A generated draft appears in the composer, ready to edit.
ステップ3:出力の精緻化
Use the shorten, expand, or translate buttons to fix the draft.
✅ 結果: You have a usable first draft instead of a blank box.
💡 プロのヒント: Define the goal before you prompt. Drive signups from 中小企業” beats “write a post about our product” every single time.
How to Use Buffer Bio
バイオのリンク turns your Start Page into a simple landing page you can link from any bio.
Build a mobile landing page with links, images, and 文章 — it counts as one channel.
以下に、その使用方法をステップごとに説明します。
ステップ1:スタートページを作成する
Pick Start Page from the channel menu and name it.
Note that it uses one of your channel slots.
ステップ2:リンクとコンテンツを追加する
Drop in a link, an image, and a short description of your business.
これがその様子です。

✓ チェックポイント: Your live Start Page opens correctly on a phone browser.
Step 3: Publish and Connect It
Publish the page, copy the URL, then paste it into your Instagram bio.
✅ 結果: Every social network profile now points to one page you control.
💡 プロのヒント: Put your highest-value link at the top. Most users tap once and leave, so the bottom of the page rarely gets seen.
Bufferアプリと連携機能の使い方
アプリと連携機能 connects Buffer to your browser, your phone, and the other tools in your stack.
Install the browser extension and the mobile app to capture content wherever you find it.
以下に、その使用方法をステップごとに説明します。

Add the extension, then share any article or image while browsing.
Step 2: Get the Mobile App
Download it from the App Store or Play Store and log in.
これがその様子です。

✓ チェックポイント: The extension icon appears in your browser toolbar.
Step 3: Check Your Timezone
Open app settings and confirm your timezone is correct.
✅ 結果: You can save ideas from any page or phone screen in one tap.
💡 プロのヒント: A wrong timezone in the mobile app is the top reason posts go out at odd hours. Check it before you schedule anything.
Bufferの共有カレンダービューの使い方
共有カレンダービュー shows your entire posting schedule on one calendar your whole team can read.
Switch between week and month views to spot gaps before your audience does.
以下に、その使用方法をステップごとに説明します。
ステップ1:カレンダービューに切り替える
In Publishing, click the calendar icon near the top.
Step 2: Filter by Channel
Select one channel or view all social accounts together.
これがその様子です。

✓ チェックポイント: The moved post shows its new date immediately.
Step 3: Drag to Reschedule
Grab any post and drop it on a different day or slot.
✅ 結果: Empty days are obvious, and fixing them takes one drag.
💡 プロのヒント: Scan the month view every Friday. Two minutes of gap-spotting beats a scramble on Monday morning.
Bufferカスタムレポートの使用方法
カスタムレポート lets you build a branded report from your social media performance data and export it.
Pull the metrics that matter, add your logo, and export the whole thing as a PDF.
以下に、その使用方法をステップごとに説明します。
Step 1: Open Buffer Analytics
Click Analytics, then choose Reports from the side menu.
You can analyze one platform or combine several.
Step 2: Pick Your Metrics

これがその様子です。

Step 3: Export as PDF
Click export at the bottom right to save or send the report.
✅ 結果: You have a client-ready report built from real data, not screenshots.
💡 プロのヒント: Check the Answers tab first. Buffer suggests better posting times there based on your past engagement patterns.
Bufferのソーシャルメディアテンプレートの使い方
ソーシャルメディアテンプレート saves your best-performing post formats so you never rewrite the same structure twice.
Turn a winning post into a reusable skeleton and fill in fresh details each week.
以下に、その使用方法をステップごとに説明します。
Step 1: Find a Winning Post
Sort your analytics by engagement and open the top performer.
Step 2: Save It as a Template
Strip out the specifics and keep the structure as a draft.
これがその様子です。

✓ チェックポイント: Your saved template appears in drafts under its tag.
Step 3: Reuse and Adapt
Duplicate the template, swap in new details, then queue it.
✅ 結果: Weekly posting takes minutes because the format is already decided.
💡 プロのヒント: Templates have to respect character limits per network. Build the shortest version first, then expand it for LinkedIn and Facebook.
Buffer Proのヒントとショートカット
After two years inside this tool, these are the shortcuts that stuck.
キーボードショートカット

|---|---|
| Save post to queue | Ctrl / Cmd + Enter |
| Save as draft | Ctrl / Cmd + S |
| Close the composer | ESC |
| Jump to search | Ctrl / Cmd + K |
ほとんどの人が見逃す隠れた機能
- The Answers tab: Sitting inside Buffer Analytics, it suggests a better posting time using your own past engagement.
- Combined network 報告: Analyze one platform alone, or merge all social channels into one performance view.
- Browser extension sharing: Share any article, image, or video straight from the page you’re reading.
- Mobile drafts: Save ideas on your phone, then finish and schedule them later at your desk.
Here are the benefits that keep me on the platform:

Sharing information with your audience gets easier once these habits stick.
バッファーでよくある間違いを避ける
Mistake #1: Posting Identical Copy Everywhere
❌ 間違い: Writing one post and blasting it to every social network unchanged.
✅ 右: Click Customize for each network. Different platforms reward different lengths, and character limits vary widely.
Mistake #2: Ignoring Analytics Completely
❌ 間違い: Scheduling for months without ever opening the analytics tab.
✅ 右: Review reach, engagement, and follower growth weekly. Then adjust your posting schedule around what the data shows.
Mistake #3: Scheduling and Walking Away
❌ 間違い: Treating Buffer as a set-and-forget system with no follow-up.
✅ 右: Come back and respond to comments. Scheduling handles publishing; conversation is what actually builds an audience.
バッファのトラブルシューティング
Problem: Posts publish at the wrong time
原因: Your timezone default is set to the wrong region, usually on the mobile app.
修理: Open Settings, correct the timezone, then reschedule anything already queued.
Problem: A channel keeps disconnecting
原因: Social networks expire access tokens, and Instagram does it most often.
修理: Click the channel, choose Reconnect, and log in again on that platform.
Problem: The cookie banner blocks the dashboard
原因: A blocked or half-loaded consent prompt sits on top of the page.
修理: Scroll to the footer, click the revisit consent button, and save your choice again.
📌 注記: If none of these fix it, Buffer support replies to email within a day.
バッファとは何ですか?
バッファ is a social media marketing tool for scheduling, managing, and analysing posts across platforms.
Think of it like a shared outbox for your whole brand.
Its core strength is the ability to draft one post and publish it across many networks.
It splits into three groups: Publishing, Analytics, and Engagement.
Publishing handles scheduling. Analytics shows social media performance. Engagement lets big brands watch Instagram conversations about them.
