How to Automatically Post Twitter Updates to Your Blog

I have been asked a couple of times how I get my Twitter posts to automatically display in my blog. So, I figured I’d take a moment and share with you the great Twitter Tools plugin for WordPress. Simply visit the Twitter Tools website and download the plugin. Upload the plugin where you normally place plugins for WordPress. If you are not sure how to upload plugins, then please visit this WordPress Plugin Help Page.

Once you have the Twitter Tools installed, you can see all of the options. You can choose to post your tweets immediate, daily, weekly, or even monthly. I have it set to weekly, and I have it set to automatically post every Sunday afternoon. All you need to do is supply it with your Twitter username and password, and then configure the settings the way you want and you’re good to go. It’s a very simple and you never have to think about it again after you’re done!

Fast Blog Finder Review

This is the first product review I’ve done, but I felt this product was worthwhile enough for me to share my opinions on the matter. From time to time I am going to review products that I’ve found helpful. I’m going to include my affiliate link to those products, just to help offset costs for running the blog. Having said that, I will only write a review on a product I think highly of, and have tested myself.

This brings me to the Fast Blog Finder Review.

I came across this piece of software when I was looking into ways in which to gain links to my blog. In the blogging realm, blog commenting is a major source of traffic and backlinks. The only problem is that a lot of blog owners have their links listed as “nofollow”. This means that the links you receive from these sites will not count for your blog or website. The key is in finding “dofollow” links. This knocks out two birds with one stone. It drives traffic to your blog and also builds your backlink count.

This sounds great, but where do you find the blogs that are DoFollow? Not one to waste time, I went to work finding out the best way to track down these DoFollow blogs. That’s when I came across the Fast Blog Finder, sometimes called the G-Lock Blog Finder after the developing company’s name (G-Lock Software).

Here are some screen shots of the software in action:

The software allows you to quickly identify themed “dofollow” blogs that allow you to drive targeted traffic and build quality backlinks. The only negative thing I would say about the Fast Blog Finder is the amount of “unknown” types that it can return. Depending on the search query, you may get 200 blogs that are “nofollow” and 200 blogs that are “dofollow”, but then you may also get 150 more that are “unknown”. I typically do not bother with the unknowns, as I have more than enough dofollow blogs to deal with, but having a more definitive search results would be a little more helpful. My advice is not to mess with the “unknown” types, unless you just really like that person’s blog. I just follow the green highlighted blogs, as those are conveniently the dofollow blogs. The good news is, you can also set your preferences to just display “dofollow” results.

Another great feature of this software is the that it can filter out blogs that have not been posted in for a specific date range. So, for example, you can set the Fast Blog Finder to only return results for DoFollow Blogs that have been posted in the last 3 months. This is another very helpful feature.

Priced at just $49.99 it is well worth the investment for any marketer or webmaster whose looking to drive traffic and backlinks to their website. I personally own this piece of software and can definitely appreciate the idea behind it and the time it has saved me. If you’re interested in quickly finding related “dofollow” blogs, please visit the Fast Blog Finder website.
