Make sure you mix the concrete well in wheel barrow first. I have seen fence companies dump the bag in the hole and just pour water onto it. This may sound obvious to most but just thought I'd throw it out there.

It is perfectly fine to pour the cement in first. The cement draws moisture from both the water and the ground surrounding it. Did this for my fence, and also the posts for my shed. No problems with movement or whatever.
