Automatic Twitter in Blogger using Google Feedburner



As you know ,Twitter has become one of the most popular social network recently, and you can get a lot of reader/traffic from this service . There are many tips and tricks to get traffic via Twitter ,one of them is " Tweet" on new post in your website each time it is published .
In Wordpress ,we can use plugin to tweet automatically when publishing a new post ,but in Blogger we can't do that . So this post is a small tip for you to do that using Google Feedburner .

FeedBurner is a free service offered by Google . Most of webmasters/bloggers use this service for providing RSS to readers .So if you are a web master or blogger ,I think you are familiar with it .
In this post ,I just mention to a function of Feed Burner service that allow us tweet automatically in Twitter each time a new post is published in our Blogger blog .
1,Create a feed for your Blogger in Feedburner .
2, Login to your FeedBurner account . Click on your Blogger Feed to go to the dashboard .
3,In the Feedburner Dashboard ,go to Publicize ,click on Socialize .


4,At this step ,you can see the button "Add a Twitter account " ,click on it to add your twitter account into Feedburner system .
5,There are some option for "tweet" message such as adding text ,include category name or not ... You can make it as you want .
5,Click on Active to make this service available .
Ok ,you are done , each time you post a new article in your blogger , a new message will post automatically in Twitter for announcing this .
That's all . I hope this helpful to you ^^

  1. Good advice, twitter certainly helps to drive traffic to your site and this new feature on feedburner really helps to streamlie things. It is also worth noting that you can also add additional text (see screen shot above). Two ways I have found to use this are either to add something along the lines of "New at XXX blog..." at the start (there is a character limit). Alternatively you can add a hash tag to go after the tweet so people can find you i.e. to indicate your blog niche etc as your post title and tags may not always have this in it.
