How To Auto-Tweet Your Newly Published Posts Using FeedBurner Socialize

There are bunch of ways to tweet your newly published posts. You can tweet it manually or automatically by installing some plugins. However, if you’re using Google FeedBurner, you can use it to auto-tweet your newly published posts without installing any plugins, etc. Check this out!

The FeedBurner Socialize service makes it easy to distribute your content to interested subscribers or followers on social networks using any FeedBurner feed you already have. The Socialize service currently supports distribution on Twitter.

How to setup FeedBurner Socialize to automatically post updates from your feed to your Twitter account:

1. Login to your FeedBurner account.

2. Click your feed name.

3. Go to Publicize tab.

4. Under Services, click Socialize.

5. Click “Add a Twitter account”.

6. Login to your account and authorize FeedBurner to update your Twitter status.

7. It’s time to format your feed for Twitter.

NOTE:

The formatting must fit within the 140 character limit imposed by Twitter. If the options you choose create messages longer than 140 characters, FeedBurner will automatically truncate your messages into 140 character tweets.

* If you choose to include a link to the feed item, it will automatically be shortened using Google shortener (goo.gl).

8. You can preview how your tweets will look in your feed as you change Socialize options.

9. When you’re done, click Activate.

Check your Twitter account the next time you publish a new post.

Now, you don’t have to worry about “tweeting” your blog posts because FeedBurner Socialize will do it for you!
