Social Media and Joomla!

Wednesday, 18 November 2009

Well I finally have gotten around to my own site and have updated it to automagically update my Facebook and Twitter accounts whenever I add content to my Joomla! website www.tangerinefiles.com. It only took a little know-how on the the Facebook settings side and using Joomla's built-in RSS feeds.

For Twitter, I bought a component called Twitter Status which allows me to choose which sections and categories I want automatically posted to Twitter. It only cost me $10 and setup in 1 minute flat. Can't beat that!

This is great for finding new business, reaching out to people who are actively searching for you products or services and search engine results.
