Closing the Auto-share loop: From Twitter to Google+
On my previous blog post, Automatically Share Blogger posts to Multiple Social Networks, I discussed my strategy for sharing Blog posts to Blogger. However, Buffer does not yet post to Google+ Profiles, which often leaves this social network out of the loop and in turn decreases my reach. To remediate this concern, I have created a this IFTTT recipe.
Logic: Twitter posts with links are usually in regard to a new, whereas those without are usually a discussion specific event. Thus, I have designed it to only fire when posting a link to twitter.
In order to avoid double posting to Google+, I have removed automatically posting to Google+ from the other recipes that use sources, like Tumblr, Blogger and Disqus.
The loop is now closed and the structure, subsequently, easier to diagram.
UPDATE (12/21/2013): Updated IFTTT recipe to use Link to Twitter post instead of embed code, which results in a blank post.
