So you have a blog, a LinkedIn account, a Facebook page, and you’re tweeting away. You’re spending some time each week to update each one, and you start to think that there has to be an easier way to take care of everything at once.
Twitter’s tiny little 140 character tweets can show up in a lot of places, which is a fantastic way to get noticed.
First, we will show you how to link Twitter to your blog and to Facebook.
Go to your Twitter account and sign in. At the bottom of the screen, you will see a link named “Apps.” Clicking here will lead you to this page:
You can scroll through the list and pick some that sound interesting to you, but for now we are going to stick to the “Widgets” application.
Once that is open, select the Facebook tab and click “continue” in the bottom right corner.
Click on the “Install Twitter in Facebook” button in the middle of the page.
Click “Allow,” and enter your Twitter login and password. Now anything you text to your Twitter account will be displayed as your Facebook status. Two birds with one digital stone.
Go back to the Apps link on Twitter. This time, click on the “Blogger” link, and then click “Continue” at the bottom to navigate here:
You can tweak the settings as much as you’d like, then click the “Add to Blogger” button. It will ask you to sign in to your account, much like Facebook.
Click the “Add Widget” button and you are up and running. This link brings you to a page that will let you finesse your blog’s layout. Spend some time here, as this will likely be the place a prospective client will end up on, and you want them to get a good idea of who you are and what you do.
Click “Save” when you’re all done.
If you need to get back to that page, it is the “Page Elements” tab under the “Layout” tab.
Hope that helps, leave a comment if you have any questions.
