How to automatically feed your blog posts into Facebook


A video tutorial that takes ‘manual’ out of the process

John HaydonI recently spoke with a non-profit client who I’m working with on social web strategies. At the end of our call, she complained “We’ve been so busy recently. I can barely remember to paste our blog posts onto our Facebook Page.”

When I told her that she could automate the feed, she almost jumped through the phone with joy. I promised her that I’d make this video.

If you don’t have a Facebook Page yet, go watch How to create a Facebook Page in less than four minutes. I’ll wait right here.

This tutorial on how to import your blog posts into your Facebook Page covers the following steps:

  • Adding the notes application to your Facebook Page
  • Adding your blog’s RSS feed to the application
  • Confirming and importing your blog posts

Chris – I use a screen-capturing tool for Macs called ScreenFlow. It allows me to record from 4 sources at once (eyesight, mic, computer sounds, screen), add additional media (music in this case), edit (zooming, callouts), and publish in any format. Hope that helps!

Hello,

I'm sharing this info because I know it can help and bring traffics through your facebook fan page/profile to your blog. It's another way of adding your blog feeds to your facebook profile or fan page. Just follow this link: Create automatic RSS feed from your blog to your Facebook fan page.
