Sharing links to blog posts on your personal website, via Facebook (Automatically!)

Remember: It’s important that you use Facebook correctly for marketing your business, otherwise you could end up doing more harm than good. This guide is aimed at those of you who own a personal website (Not for business!). Read this for details.

Just think; usually when you add a new blog post to your website, you’d normally login to Facebook and post a link on your profile. There’s no need for that- it can be done automatically via your RSS feed, and it only takes a couple of minutes to setup.

Simply follow these easy steps to import your blog posts to Facebook:

1. Login to your Facebook account, then go to your profile.
2. Click on the ‘Notes’ tab. If it’s not there, click on the little + sign to the right of the tabs that are there… choose ‘Notes’ from the drop-down menu, and the tab will be added.
3. Whilst on the Notes tab, click on the link at the bottom left that says ‘edit import settings’.
4. Now simply enter the link to the RSS feed from your website, like so:

5. Tick the box agreeing to Facebook’s terms.

6. Click ‘Start importing’. (This may take a minute or so- be patient).

7. You should now see something like this:

Click ‘Confirm import’ and within 5 minutes, your blog entries will be imported to your Facebook notes. Now each time you create a new article on your website, It’ll be published to Facebook automatically (It can sometimes take up to 12hrs to appear, but it works well).
