Today I am going to show you how, with a little effort in initial set up, you can spread your blog and micro blog content across multiple sites with just one post.

Why cross post your blog entries?

Traffic of course!  Post once to your main Wordpress blog and your posts are shown on multiple other sites, therefore increasing your site’s visibility.

Thanks to the incredible widespread availability of all kinds of content on the web, you can now increase  the reach of your online campaign by automatically and instantly cross-posting your blog or website entries on different Web 2.0 services, such as macro and micro blogging services (Twitter, Facebook, etc.).

It is another fantastic way to build communication and connect to your audience, and it can have a far-reaching effect on your campaign, particularly by getting the attention of people who have never visited your website.

The entries on your blog can appear on countless other platforms simultaneously, therefore getting the attention of new audiences, and opening up new channels of communication.

There are multiple benefits to this approach. The first is that you drive more visitors, and thus eventual supporters, to your own blog campaign. Also, it has the effect of lengthening the lifetime of your blog entries by generating a cycle of sharing and promotion that can be easily picked up by the search engines.

First of all you will need to decide which platforms you wish to use. This is my list, which you can adjust to suit your own preferences:-

1. Twitter
2. Live Spaces
3. Multiply
4. SPN Babble
5. FriendFeed
6. MyBlogLog
7. Ping.fm
8. Xanga
9. Live Journal
10. Tumblr
11. Posterous
12. Facebook
13. Blogger
14. Vox
15. Identica
16. Plurk
17. Jaiku
18. YouAre

You will need an account at each of these sites, before you can begin to link your blogs together.

Some care is needed in setting up each link.  You will need to avoid duplicate postings, which can easily happen.

Wordpress have a number of plugins enabling cross postings, and you will need to utilise plugins, RSS feeds and Facebook applications, to link correctly.

Rather than turn this into an extremely long post, I have outlined the process step by step for you, and also provide a mindmap, so that you can see exactly how it works.
