Google+Facebook+twitter and One single post - Time Optimization

Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Keystone Realty RS294813

Lately I've been spending some time trying to figure out how to be bit more efficient with my online sphere of influence/marketing.  I just read a post by Erica McClenny titled

Google + Tweets+ Local Info = BUSINESS for me!

and this got me thinking about another post I had read not that long ago by Cheryl Johnson

Facebook: Business Pages

You might be wondering how the two are tied together.  I'm going to tell you.  When you create a Facebook page for business (this is separate from your personal page) it allows you to have a page solely focused on real estate, lending, property management, (insert whatever you do).  This helps me keep from spamming the living you know what out of my other Facebook friends.

Note: I still post Real Estate info on my main page from time to time just to stay infront of the 500+ people who view my page.

Now in my title and in Erica's post she makes reference to Google's search engine picking up twitter - SWEET MORE GOOGLE JUICE. 

Here is a link to the Twitter group here at AR

Take what you need from the above group.  Some love twitter some hate it, but lets be honest it's probably here to stay and if it's here we may as well find a way to use it.

I'm personally a Facebook guy.  I don't use twitter much at all, but there is a way to use both without visiting another site.  I created a Facebook page.  Now Facebook will allow your business page posts to automatically transfer to twitter.  So your posts go to two locations and you only have to enter them once.  Since google already picks up Facebook business pages, and according to Erica's post will now be searching twitter there is a great opportunity for more web exposure.

Lets say you write an AR blog.  You go to your facebook business page, post the link to your blog on AR for your fans.  That post goes to twitter for your followers.  Maybe post it to your main facebook page if its a good topic.  You've now put your blog all over the web and all you had to do was write a blog at AR and post a link on Facebook. 

Google is able to search all of this different avenues to find your well written blog on an interesting local topic or valuable professional opinion on a often searched topic.

Figured I'd share this as a good way to kill two birds with one stone.

A wealth in information.  Thank you for taking the time to get all that information in one spot.  Great bookmark for me to get back to when business is just a bit slower.

thanks David. Another person bookmarking your blog. Like Dianne, above, you've prompted me to look into a Facebook business page.

I'm glad it was helpful.  It's almost overwhelming to take advantage of all of the possible avenues we have for generating business online.  I still think a successful blog is the key to the whole thing.  Where you put that blog is second.

Great post Dave!  I had no idea you could do this either.  Maybe I can get a little tutorial on how to do this or you could write another post on how to to, for those of us not so internet astute?  LOL.
