Tip of the Week #8- RSS Post to Social Media Pages
In this guide, I'll walk you through the process of getting your blog posts to automatically post on your social media pages using Gym Lead Machine. Follow the steps below to set it up:
Step 1: Access the Marketing Section
- Navigate to Marketing: Start by heading over to the Marketing section within your Gym Lead Machine dashboard.
Step 2: Set Up a New RSS Post
- Create a New RSS Post: Look for the option labeled "RSS Post." You'll see a box that says "Create New RSS Post." Click on this option to proceed.
Step 3: Find Your RSS Feed URL
- Locate Your RSS Feed URL:
- Open a new browser tab and go to your website.
- At the end of your website URL, add
/feed
(e.g.,yourwebsite.com/feed
). - This should display your RSS feed. Copy the entire URL.
- Paste Your RSS Feed URL: Go back to the Gym Lead Machine dashboard and paste the copied URL into the designated RSS feed field.
Step 4: Select Social Media Accounts
- Choose Social Media Accounts:
- Decide which social media platforms you want your blog posts to be shared on.
- I recommend selecting Google, Facebook, LinkedIn, and X (formerly known as Twitter).
- Note: Avoid selecting Instagram since clickable links don't work well there.
Step 5: Configure Posting Settings
- Set Up Posting Frequency:
- Choose how often you want the system to check your RSS feed for new posts. Once a day is usually sufficient.
Step 6: Finalize and Create the Post
- Create Post: Once you've configured your settings, click on the "Create Post" button.
What Happens Next?
Each day, Gym Lead Machine will automatically check your RSS feed for new blog posts. If it finds any, it will push them to your selected social media accounts, saving you time and effort.
