| The best medium to feed your social networks from blogger Posted: 03 Jan 2014 11:07 AM PST The idea is simple. You post new article on your blogger, the medium automatically post the notification on your social networks' timelines to attract traffic to your blogger. Which medium are the best for this purpose? Let us look at one by one. First, let us remember the posts feed RSS from blogger is http://surfonblogger.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss and the comments feed RSS URL is http://surfonblogger.blogspot.com/feeds/comments/default?alt=rss. You will need to change to your blog name. We will analyze three most popular media here, twitterfeed.com, dlvr.it and hootsuite.com. It is clearly the best option for Twitter is twitterfeed.com. dlvr.it does change some links if your post contains two links and one of them is of Youtube's or image's link. However, recently twitterfeed.com shows it has problem to update blogger comments feed and search feeds from Youtube search feed. The solution? Use dlvr.it for blogger comments feed and Youtube search feeds. Unlike Twitter, Facebook can show image and video on the post. dlvr.it does it best to extract the image and video links and directly post them. So, generally, the best medium for Facebook is dlvr.it. However, if the feed does not come from your bloggers, but from their party, while dlvr.it extract the image or video link, it would erase the rest links. In this case, the best option is using Twitter's built-in function to post to Facebook from Twitter's timeline. Google Plus Currently, the only free service to post to G+ is Hootsuite. So, if you want to use free service, this is the only option. Hootsuite's free plan only allows 2 feeds. That is why you should not use it for Twitter and Facebook. Actually, you can set your blogger directly post to G+, but it excludes the comments and those posted through email. Hootsuite's free plan is still the only option. |
| Best social networks to drive traffic Posted: 02 Jan 2014 04:08 PM PST The big three are Twitter, Facebook and Google Plus. It is suggested you should have all of these three. Do you know what are the ranks among them? Since the purpose for your blog is the traffic driven by social network, it does really depend on the followers of your social network. In this sense, Twitter is the best, because you can easily gain followers. Both G+ page and Facebook page are really hard to gain the Likes or Followers. If you do not have enough resources to explore three of them, then concentrate on the Twitter. |
