Look Mom, No Hands


In past posts we have discussed leveraging Facebook, Twitter and Blogs (#ftb) for promoting your business. In my prior post I discussed using the same or similar content in all three places and simply creating links back to the blog entry.

Today I am going to provide a way to automatically create the Twitter entry just by publishing the posting to your blog. The trick is a nice third party app called Twitterfeed that I learned about thanks to a posting on Blogger.com.

You simply create an account on Twitterfeed (you can leverage any of the OpenID accounts you already have) and then supply Twitterfeed with information on your blog and its feed information. Provide preferences on how often Twitterfeed should check your blog and how you want the want the Twitter tweets created and you are done.

Once Twitterfeed is setup your blog postings will just flow to Twitter with no effort from you. This gives you more time to create some additional catchy tweets or other tasks for growing your business.
