How many of you out there reading this like Twitter? (You do not have to actually raise your hands… I cannot see you). Twitter has become a great asset of Social Media Marketing an amazing Social Networking tool. It allows you to post updates on what you are doing and people who are interested can follow you and see what’s up. There are many Twitter tools out there that make tweeting even easier (not that it was hard to begin with), such as tweetdeck, tweetlater, twallow, etc… but our favorite here at Turbo Social Media is Twitterfeed.
Twitterfeed is a simple platform that allows you to hook the feed from your blog up to your twitter account, so every time you write a new blog entry, the feed is sent straight through to your twitter, inviting all of your followers to come to your site and read the new post. This makes the SEO of your blog post so much more important, as people all over twitter will be able to find your post if searching for the keywords in your title
Setting up Twitterfeed is very simple. Once you login, you verify your twitter account and then set up your feed (if you have a Feedburner account, you can get your original feed url from there), and then you can set up how often you want your Twitterfeed to check your feed for a new blog entry. You can even set up your twitter post by choosing if you want it to be the title of your blog post or the title and a small description and even choose a url shortening tool to automatically shorten your blog url (we use bit.ly). Twitter feed has become a wonderful platform for us as it has allowed us to combine our blog with our Social Networking, and thus increasing the traffic to our site.
