Auto Tweet

Tweeting just got a whole lot easier with the new RSS to Blog feature from social oomph and others.

Now it is easy to
- Make blog posts from any RSS feed
- Tweet those posts to Twitter

Step 1 - Make Blog Posts from any RSS Feed

All of this is done automatically with the professional paid version of social oomph.

“you can now grab one or more (in fact as many as you like) RSS feeds and automatically create blog post entries from the RSS feed entries.”

“it is now possible to populate your blog with hand-crafted scheduled blog posts, combined with posts that are created from external RSS feeds”

“One Blog Feed can feed as many blogs and social networking accounts as you want, and you can feed as many Blog Feeds into one blog and/or social networking account as you want.”

“You access it by:

- Adding your blog to your SocialOomph account.
- Adding a Blog Feed account, and selecting your blog (and other accounts) as the target for the Blog Feed.”

However, if you want a free way to automate your blog with content from RSS feeds, we suggest the word press Feed Word Press plugin. We currently use this plugin on a few of our websites to augment our regular posts.

Step 2 – Send Your Blog Posts To Twitter

Once you have a blog with your own RSS feed, you can then send that feed to your twitter profile with the free twitter feed service. Twitter feed is also a great way to populate your twitter profile with extra tweets from any RSS feed like google news and any other website with an RSS feed.

Another free word press plugin is the free twitter tools plugin. However, this plugin will only send manually written blog posts to twitter. It will not send the posts to twitter that were created in step 1 above. But you can use it for a number of other things like creating blog posts from twitter profile tweets on a per post basis on with daily of weekly recaps. You can also use it to tweet from your wordpress sidebar.

Using the above two simple steps you can now easily “Set up an auto blog and auto tweet system”.
Now, wasn’t that fun!

The whole purpose of Twitter Feed is to send an RSS feed to your twitter profile and even your facebook account. And its free.

You can actually send any RSS feed to your twitter account. This includes your blog RSS feed, an industry blog RSS feed, a google news feed and any other RSS feed that you can find.

Here’s a sample google newsfeed ” http://news.google.com/news?q=auto%20tweet&output=rss ” and a yahoo newsfeed ” http://news.search.yahoo.com/news/rss?p=auto+tweet&ei=UTF-8&fl=0&x=wrt ” just in case you’re new to this business.

To spice it up a little you can shorten these RSS feeds into ” http://bit.ly/1CmP2x ” for google and ” http://bit.ly/2GlBxh ” for yahoo news feeds. To add a general content link in your tweets you could simply just add them in and call them something like “auto tweet information”.

Why do you want to do this?

Well, if you are lazy you can let another site do the tweeting to your account. But, the best uses for sending an RSS feed to your twitter account is to provide valuable tweets to your followers. Value is in the eye of the beholder.

You certainly view your treasured blog posts as valuable don’t you!

You can also track your feeds too. The Twitter Feed site is very busy, so you should be patient or you might also want to check out other RSS To Twitter sites too.
