How to automatically post from Facebook to Twitter

I’m all about simplifying and multitasking.  And when it comes to social media, you have to have a few tricks up your sleeve to help you to multitask your content across several platforms. There are a few third-party programs out there to do this, but I want to share one of the easiest ways to ensure that the content you write for Facebook – you know, those really great posts on your business page – can be automatically shared directly to your Twitter account.  No extra buttons, no copy-paste-repeat.  Just 60 seconds of setup time.  Love it!

Here’s how you do it:
  1. Login to Facebook
  2. Open a second browser or window tab and login to your Twitter account
  3. Click on the link https://www.facebook.com/twitter/ and make sure that Facebook is connecting to the account that you intend to connect.
  4. Edit any settings that you wish to change like Status Updates, Photos, Video Links, Notes and Events.
  5. Click on the Link to Twitter button.
That’s it! Your Facebook will now automatically post to your Twitter account whenever you post on your connected Facebook profile.
