Facebook and Twitter: Use Your Fan Page to Tweet

If you are the admin to a Facebook Page (Fan Page), you can now share updates with your Twitter followers, and are able to control the type of updates you want to share: status updates, links, notes, photos, etc, or all of them!

This is a huge advancement to Facebook and Twitter. You can now use two of the most powerful social networks on the Internet, side by side. Killing two birds with one stone.

This application will also allow you the option to sync multiple Pages to different Twitter accounts. So if you have a second or third Fan Page that you operate and a Twitter account to coincide with it, then can sync those as well.

Hint: If you create a Fan Page, make a Twitter account for it too. And vice versa.

All this is available at http://www.facebook.com/twitter

It is easy to use. Sign into your facebook account and follow the link above.

Click on “Link a Page to Twitter”

Then select the Facebook Fan Page you want to link to your Twitter account.Next, you will be redirected to Twitter. Allow Facebook access. (You might need to sign into Twitter)

From here you will be able to create the settings for what Facebook sends to Twitter. I go for them all!

Happy Tweeting!

Select Your Facebook Username

Facebook recently launched the “username” function for you Facebook page ( http://www.facebook/username ), which is probably one of the biggest SEO opportunities to take advantage of. This function allows you to select a specific username that will end up being your URL i.e. http://www.facebook.com/reispaluso.

This allows for a great opportunity for businesses to add a generic or specific keyword as their username for SEO purposes on the page itself. You will now have a powerful URL. Although Facebook has blocked certain generic terms, there are still opportunities for businesses to obtain relatively generic usernames, or usernames that combine their actual name with additional generic keywords.

The most effective way is to choose a username that accurately represents your business or brand. Make sure you think about it for a few because once you select your username, it is there forever! So pick something for the long term that you feel is right!

Also, for your Fan Page, a username is also available, but with more restrictions. The page must have at least 100 fans to be eligible for a username. So get out there and recruit your friends, family, and fans to join the forces so that you can take advantage of some SEO for your money making business.

It will even work with your TweetDeck or other Twitter applications you may be running. Check it out. We think it is cool.
