Everyone wants to get their blog as much attention as possible.

One way is to tie your blog into the social media sites.  The heavy hitters are of course Twitter and Facebook.  I have tried numerous plug-ins in an attempt to make an automated connection between my blogs an associated twitter and Facebook accounts.  None of them have fully satisfied me.

I have found a better solution through the use of HootSuite.com.

You can setup a free account on this service.  It allows you to manage multiple social media accounts from one dashboard and send a message to one or all of these accounts with a couple clicks of the mouse.

Even more importantly from the automation standpoint, it will take a RSS feed and echo it out to the social media accounts on the schedule you select.  I can take the RSS feed from my WordPress blog and have new posts echoed to Twitter and Facebook – all automatically.
