Sharing you blogs on Friendfeed

[Frank1Donnelly]

I want to share me blogs on Friendfeed, I can import the url, but I was wondering what url to use, do I use the dashboard url or the url of the individual blog, like when you do a new blog the idea is that FriendFeed will receive it, but how will it do it, it's just to know what url to put in, like if the dashboard is used wont it show all your blogs at once?

Your dashboard is a private area for just the blog owner so don't put that into friendfeed, it won't work. Use the public url of the the blog ie http://vintgeguitarrablog.com and friendfeed will find the rss feed from there. If you have several blogs you'll have to do this for each one that you want to publish to your friendfeed followers. This hasn't been covered by the 30DC yet, but you might want to think about setting up a friendfeed room for each niche as well and importing the appropriate feeds into there instead of your personal stream.

Just a word of caution. By putting your feed into friendfeed associated with your own identity you are exposing your niche idea and keywords to anybody who wants to take a look so don't do it like that if you want to keep it a secret.

What Andy said plus if you are going to be using different 'personalities' for your niches you will want to set up separate friend feed accounts for each of them.

You can always 'make friends' with your alter egos if you want!

I have a business I want to market, it's got a website, capture page and over 2000 products on offer when joining a team does that matter?

So I should'nt have my blogs on FF?

If you already have a business in this market and want to be known for it, then it's fine to add your blog to Friendfeed. I do it myself. The concern above is if you are set up a new niche for the 30DC.

So should I still join a team and should I transfer my blogs to google reader and share them with FF, that way I have control over the individual blogs that are shown.

What url do you use? for submitting your blog, is it the individual blog url and if so will have to continuosly keep putting new url's of the new blogs?

All blogs have a RSS (Really Simple Syndication) Feed.

When you go to your main page of your blog (www .yoursite .domain), depending on the theme template you are using, you will find a RSS button or RSS text link. If you right click on this you can copy the link location of your RSS Feed.

If your theme doesn't contain either of these go the the RSS icon next to the address bar and add your blog's RSS Feed to Google Reader. You will be able to copy the RSS Feed link from there.

The most common RSS link looks like www .yoursite .domain/feed

It is this link you add to Google Reader, submit to RSS Directories, or insert into Friend Feed.

Hi,
Where do I find the url of my blogs for submition to FF and everytime I do a blog does that particular blog appear on FF instead of all my blogs. If I submit to Google Reader then I must share them everytime? in order for them to be viewed
