Twitter & WordPress – New Tweet My Blog Update
The power of Twitter and WordPress blogs are brought together through a fantastic WordPress plugin called Tweet My Blog. The brainchild of John Merrick and Soren Jordansen, this is one of the most powerful plugins for the Internet marketing, niche marketing and affiliate marketing bloggers.
Once set up in your blog’s Plugins section, the software posts your new post titles to your Twitter account with a link bank to the post every time you update your blog. While you could do this manually, we’ve all gotten too busy at times to do our full procedures with the Web 2.0 and social networking sites – and other times simply forgotten to let our Twitter followers know that we’ve posted valuable new information.
Well no more! Now you can simply put the Tweet My Blog plugin into your wp-content/plugins/ directory, activate it, tell the plugin what your Twitter ID and login information are, and go back to happily blogging away, knowing your posts are all being announced and linked to for your Twitter followers to see.
NOTE TO CURRENT TWEET MY BLOG USERS:
This morning John and Soren announced an update to the Tweet My Blog plugin – an update to allow for recent Twitter changes in the shortening of URLs posted in tweets as they show up at Twitter. Upgrade to the new plugin now, since your existing plugin will not function properly since the changes at Twitter.Upgrading is super simple, though, so no worries there. Log in to Tweet My Blog and download the update, unzip the three files in the plugin directory, and upload them over those same three files as they exist on your site right now. That’s it – it retains your existing configuration and Twitter login information, so no more action is needed. Once done, your blog posts will show up as valid links back to your blog from Twitter once again with each new post.
If you’re not using Tweet My Blog yet or need to get the update, simply click here for the Tweet My Blog download. If you need more information on using Twitter as part of your Internet marketing, affiliate marketing or niche marketing promotional efforts, see the information on the Road To Twitter Success website.

Doug,
Thanks for the info. This plugin is great. As you say it eliminates the need to ‘tweet’ your blog post on twitter, since it does it automatically when you publish.
The cool thing is that if you have more than one blog you post to, install it on all of them!
Thanks for the heads up on the update…going to download and reinstall now.

This is a fantastic plug-in, and I like how easy it is to use.
I didn’t realize that John Merrick was behind it, he did some custom programming for me a while back… this just makes me even more sure how cool this plug-in is.

Having your blog content syndicated to your Twitter account is powerful stuff. This is definitely faster and easier than posting by hand – don’t you think?

Tweeting blog posts is always a great idea. I use Twitterfeed.com which does a similar thing via RSS. Krumlr.com is also great because they retweet your own or other people’s posts when you use them as a bookmarking service to tweet your post as you will see shortly Doug..

If you are not using Twitter as a social marketing tool yet, I suggest you get a move on and sign up. We will be looking at what Twitter can do for your business (e.g. trying to sell an online product) or blog’s image, relationship-building, viral marketing, and networking, and how it can help you make more money online.
