Social Network Management is often costly and time consuming, to say the least. Using a combination of IFTTT and Buffer, you can automatically share a blogger post to all your social networks for FREE!
- Follow this post to Setup SMS to Google+
- Login to Buffer and link to your social networks
- Login to IFTTT
- Use this IFTTT recipe to send ALL blogger posts to your SMS and/or Buffer emails
- Use this IFTTT recipe to send LABELED blogger posts to your SMS and/or Buffer emails
I use a combination of the two IFTTT recipes, where all posts get sent to my personal network. Then I use one labeled version per other network. Specifically, tekAura goes to my company pages, where tekNorah goes to my personal-business/company-employee network.
You might have noticed there is no SMS loop for the tekAura company network. That is because Buffer now posts to Google+ Pages. When they add posting to Google+ Profiles, I will likely be able to remove the SMS/Google Voice paths, as well.
By default, this setup will delay posting via Buffer based on your schedule. This behavior can be modified with advanced controls on the Buffer Email Guide. I usually add these as labels to the post so it is easy to identify which posts were sent immediately or to a specific profile.
UPDATE: You can only have one Google+ account activated per Google Voice number. Also, links will not embed using this method. Although not as visually appealing, it is still functional.
UPDATE 2: I have switched Automatic posting to Google+ from Blogger using this method: https://support.google.com/blogger/answer/1752748?p=share&rd=1 for My main NorahAura Profile. However, Google+ SMS is still useful for other services like Tumblr, Disqus and posting to an alternate Google+ profile (tekNorah).
UPDATE 3: Opened to allow for reader comments. Didn't realize I had it disabled for this post. It appears I have to set this every time. *Sarcastically* THANKS GOOGLE! You have made my life Oh-So! Simple as of late!.... Sorry guys, it is working now. Also, please see the newly revamped Auto-share Diagram in the Related Posts.
