Make Me Social – WordPress Plugin – Automatically Submit New Posts to Social Bookmarking Sites

Posted by Microments 10 July, 2009

Initially I had developed this plugin for personal use but I thought that lot of people will need it. So I give it to everyone for free! It is a big key to success and I have attached some stats at the end.

What is this plugin about?

Make Me Social is the WordPress plugin which will send each new post you make to the most famous social services. This practically means instant traffic to your blog as soon as you publish a new post, helping it to become famous in a few seconds.

How it works?

Make Me Social automatically submit new post to Twitter, Delicious, Tumblr and Diigo. Thus instant traffic to your blog as soon as you publish a new post, helping it to become famous in a few seconds.

Stats
10-15x more visitors and spiders in just 3 days

Requirements

The chances are 99% that you are okay with them. You need Wordpress 2.6, 2.7 or 2.8.* A server with PHP 5 and support for the curl and file_get_contents functions (they are supported by almost all the web hosting companies).

However, if posting to Twitter, Tumblr and Diigo does not work, then curl is not enabled on your host. If posting to Delicious does not work, then the file_get_contents function is disabled on your host. But as I already said, these cases are extremely rare.

Instructions

The installation and configuration is very easy and takes only 1 minute.

  • Open the file makemesocial.php with your favorite text editor.
  • Change the $twitter_username, $twitter_password, $tumblr_email, $tumblr_password to match the credentials of your accounts on the relevant social bookmarking services.

Now save the file makemesocial.php and upload it to your wp-content/plugins directory. Visit your Wordpress Dashboard and activate the Make Me Social Plugin. You are ready! :)

Every new post you publish from now on, will be sent to Delicious, Twitter, Tumblr and Diigo. Good luck and enjoy your continuously increasing traffic!

Testimonials

A new blog I created last month was getting around around 50-100 unique daily visitors. Although I was updating it often, this was not changing. After installing this plugin. You can see how the stats jumped suddenly. Now I get 700-900 unique daily visitors and it is still rising. Also, the visits from search engine spiders have increased from 20-30 to 300-500 daily. – Alex G

The best thing is that after auto posting to Twitter, lot of other blog owners are now finding my posts and linking to them. In only 3 days I got more than 80 original backlinks from other blogs and forums to my blog posts. Before installing the plugin, I had no backlinks at all. With its turn, this had as a result that many of my posts got a high rank at Google search results (some appear on the 1st page, just 1 hour after posting them to my blog). This was not happening for a whole month before installing the plugin, although I was updating my blog with the same frequency. – Nyk S

Important: If you already have another plugin for auto posting to Twitter, disable it, else your posts will be twitted twice!

Thanks much!!I’ve downloaded and using it in my WP blog, can’t wait to see how it works, maybe I will creat a short post to try it out later!Look forward to your “dashboard version” :)

Will you include more web 2.0/ social bookmarking sites to your next update version? that would be cool and save more time :D

Everything is working fine EXCEPT Twitter. It does send a tweet with the title of the blog, but no link? What can I do to fix that?!?
