Getting Social: Posting Your Blog Post to Facebook

I was asked to blog on this in the Q&A. For those of us with more than one Facebook page, how to go about posting your AR blog post on multiple pages in Facebook.

 

When you complete your post on AR and you want to "go social", Facebook in this example, it's pretty easy to post it. You have two choices actually:

 

METHOD #1. Copy and paste the short URL into your desired Facebook page or pages. See below:

blog 1blog 2

Just drop the link into your Comment section or "What's on your mind?" in facebook. You can also add photos and additional comments before you post it to Facebook.

 

METHOD # 2

Assuming you connected all your social media to your profile, you'll have buttons across the top of each of your blog posts:

social media buttons

Close Up:  social media buttons

This allows you to post directly into each of your pre-setup social media sites. There sometimes can be ghosts in the machine on AR and this method gets wonky, so revert to Method 1 when this occurs.

 

1. To  load your social media buttons, go here in your profile: Active Rain Profile Edit

 

2. Click the pencil next to your Contact Me and load in your web-addresses to the corresponding social media buttons.

3. How do you get the address? Just go to each of your sites and copy & paste the address out of the address bar from each profile page.
