If you are a blogger, you will like this\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imagine whenever you publish a new blog post, an email broadcast will automatically be sent to your lists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The email will automatically include a snippet of your blog post and a hyperlink to the post.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Of course, you can customize the email template with any extra message you like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is how the email template can look like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

With the above template, the auto-generated email broadcast will be like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Which Blogging Platforms Does It Work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This system works for WordPress, Weebly and Blogspot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Does It Work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

WordPress and Blogspot come with RSS Feed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For WordPress, it looks something like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

https:\/\/yourblog.com\/feed<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For Blogspot, it looks something like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

https:\/\/username.blogspot.com\/feeds\/posts\/default\/<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You simply have to go to SendSteed List Manager > Blog To Broadcast<\/a>, then<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1) add the RSS feed,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) customise the email template,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3) select the list that you want to send to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s all!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our system will automatically check the availability of any new post on your blog, create a new broadcast based on your settings, and send it to the Active Subscribers of your selected lists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Soon Will My New Post Be Broadcasted?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The system starts checking for new post at the 30th minute of every hour. If a new post is available, a broadcast will be created and sent automatically in the next hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Say if you publish a blog post at 1:20pm, your post will be picked up by the system between 1:30pm and 1:50pm and broadcasted to your preselected list automatically at 2pm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But if you publish a blog post at 1:40pm, you will have missed the 30th minute cut off. The system will then pick up your article between 2:30pm and 2:50pm and broadcast it at 3pm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Manual ‘Run’ Option<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Instead of waiting for the system to detect your post, you can also manually run the detection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you publish a new blog, just to go Blog To Broadcast<\/a> and run the Feed manually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

A broadcast will be created immediately and posted in the next broadcast hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How To Test If Your Blog To Broadcast Works?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

After you have set up the RSS feed and email template, you can run the Feed manually as illustrated above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The system will create a broadcast based on the last post<\/span> in your blog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can then check the broadcast and see if it is what you expect. (But remember to save that broadcast as Draft, otherwise it will be sent to your list!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
