As we all know, Facebook is a renowned social networking website and is loved by everyone whether it be a friend circle, business personnel’s or a Webmasters. Webmasters liked to use such services for promotion of their websites. So to take advantage of such a wide-spread network I created a Facebook Fan Page for my blog. After that I got stuck as how to import all the blog posts to the fan page, sharing all the posts one by one will be a wastage of time. But after a little effort I found a solution for that too. So I would like to share the solution with you.So here it goes.
- First of all, Login to your Facebook Fan Page of your blog(or create a new one here).
- Then, Click on “Edit Info”.
- Then, click on the “Apps” in the left sidebar.
- Now a list of Added Apps will appear, click on “Go To App” next to “Notes“.
- Now click on “Edit import settings” in the left sidebar.
- Enter the URL or RSS/Atom feed address of the website/blog.
- Then click on “Start Importing“. After that, all your blog posts will be imported to your Facebook Fan Page and you will get a message after the blog posts importing is done. And then by confirming the import, Facebook will check your blog feed after every couple of hours for new posts you`ve made. Now keep writing articles to your blog, your blog posts will be automatically imported to the Facebook Fan Page.
So with that you blog is imported to your newly created Facebook Fan Page? Any doubts, please comment below.
Thanks, this is helpful. Social networking has become such a mainstay of marketing, though I think the model needs to be improved somewhat as far as the format within Facebook is concerned. As long as every comment appears in the news feed, people will get annoyed with ads appearing there. I think a dual-column format, one of friends and one of fan page news, would be more useful.
I`m glad you liked it..:) and ya I too agree with your idea.
If the entire blog post is being reproduced, will that not generate duplicate content?
Actually Facebook Fan Page is importing our feeds data, so it is not generating the duplicate content.
I am not able to locate the “Edit Import Setting” button when I try to do this… Why? Should I enable something?
Hello Sir, I think you’ve created your Facebook Fan page recently, but over time, Facebook has changed it’s functionality and user interface of several applications and features. As per now, you won’t be able to see “Edit Import Settings” button. But there’s an alternative you can use to import your blogs/websites post to your Facebook Fan page.
1.Use the link https://www.facebook.com/networkedblogs?sk=app_4949752878, Click on “Go To App”.
2.Upon visiting you’ll see two options which are “How to publish posts from your own blog here:” and “How to publish posts from other people’s blogs:”
3.Choose the first one, add and register your blog.
4.Add the necessary details, once done, click on Syndication button to the right, add your Facebook Fan Page to it.
5. You have to claim(verify) whether you are the owner of the blog or not. So follow the steps there too.
If you are still facing any problem, please let me know I’ll help you out.
Thanks Amit – It seems to be working. Although I don’t like Networkedblogs link appering in all my posts. That is too much of a distraction on my page. I am a little hesitant to use this app. I wish there is any other App which helps me do this. I am disappointed that Facebook has removed that functinality. Thanks.
Welcome Sir, will update you about the alternatives if I found any. Happy New Year
Great information and its really working thank a lot AMit!!
This is perhaps one of the most important things one can do to increase visibility of their blog. To be honest, I might do something like this.
