If you already have a Facebook account, it's time to get started with Facebook marketing. As announced on Wednesday, June 13, 2012 by Facebook Developer Blog, WordPress publishers can easily integrate Facebook features, such as social publishing and mentions, through the new Facebook for WordPress plugin. Then it is a good idea to integrate that account with your blog if your blog or web site is powered by Wordpress platform. Here are five tools you can use to integrate Facebook with your WordPress blog.
Facebook Fan Box Plugin - If you created a fan page on Facebook as a part of your Facebook marketing strategy, then you can integrate it into your WordPress blog. The Facebook Fan Box plugin will display a box on your blog showing the recent updates made on your pages as well as the fans that joined your page. This is great for encouraging visitors to become fans on Facebook.
WordPress Facebook Connect - This WordPress plugin adds Facebook functionality to your WordPress blog. Visitors can sign in to comment on your blog with their Facebook account. The comments they leave will show up in the newsfeed and their Facebook profile pics will be used as their avatars. This is a great Facebook marketing plugin because it encourages the growth of a community around your blog.
Facebook Posted Items - This WordPress plugin will display a list of items you have posted to Facebook. If you are surfing the net and you find a website of interest, you can a post a link to it onto your Facebook profile. That same link will show up on a list on your blog so visitors can see what you've been up to online.
Facebook Live Stream - This is a Facebook Plugin that is best used when you have a live event happening online. This plugin lets users share comments and their activity on Facebook in real time. It's a virtual equivalent of meeting everyone at the coffee shop to watch a favorite television show and commenting on what's happening.
