Linking your FaceBook Fan Page to Twitter

by Jamie Ginsberg on 20. Aug, 2009 in Best Practices, FaceBook

Following a link from @susiesharp to http://mashable.com/2009/08/20/facebook-twitter-app/ I decided to link up a few FaceBook Fan Pages I am the admin for to their respective Twitter accounts. I logged into Twitter, opened up a new browser tab and navigated to http://www.facebook.com/twitter. It was quick and easy to Link the Twitter account to the Fan Page. There are controls so you can select options like only status updates or events get posted to Twitter, I left all pre-selected. Now anything an admin posts on the Fan Page will automatically be Tweeted. Very Cool.

Share and Enjoy:

    That’s great info.

    Is there a way to go the other direction? i.e., one tweet posts to twitter, myspace, facebook and linkedin (any/or all of above)?

    I’ve been able to integrate a twitter feed into my homepage and the same on my myspace profile…but feeds don’t show up in status updates on myspace or facebook.

    there has to be a better way….

    FWIW, I’m using hootsuite for my twitter acct mgmt (2 accounts – one personal, one for my business).

    Thanks!

    I use TweetDeck and Seesmic – Both let you add in a FaceBook account to do your status updates. I like Seesmic a lot, despite having to shut it down every few days. I don’t treat my FaceBook and Twitter status updates the same way, not sure you should either ;-)
