How to Set Up Blogger to Auto-Post to Your Social Media

Every time you publish a new post on your Blogger blog, Nuelink can turn it into a social media post and share it for you automatically. This guide walks you through creating a Blogger automation and setting up its collection, so your latest articles reach your followers without any extra work.

Note: To follow this guide, you'll need a Nuelink account and at least one connected social media channel. You'll also need your Blogger blog URL. If you haven't connected a channel yet, add one first from the Social Channels page.

What Is a Blogger Automation?

An automation on Nuelink adds content to a collection for you and schedules it to post on your social media channels. With a Blogger automation, Nuelink checks your blog every hour, picks up new articles, and turns them into ready-to-share posts. You stay in control of how each post looks and when it goes out.

Create the Blogger Automation

1. Go to Automations in the left sidebar, then click Create Automation.

   

2. Open the Blogs category, find Blogger, and click Create Automation on its card. 

   

3. In the Blogger Link field, enter your Blogger website or blog URL (for example, https://website.com or https://website.com/blog).

4. Set up your Post Caption. This is the text shared with each article. You can type your own caption and use variables like ((title)) and ((link)), or turn on AI captions to let Nuelink write one for you. Click Add Caption Variation to add more versions that Nuelink rotates through.

   Tip: You can use these variables in your caption: ((title)), ((link)), ((website)), ((website_title)), ((website_description)), and ((author)).

   

5. (Optional) Add a Post title. This is used for YouTube, Pinterest, and Facebook videos. You can leave the default ((title)).

   

6. (Optional) Turn on Auto thread long captions to automatically split long captions into a thread on supported platforms.

   

7. Under Choose post format, pick how each article is shared: Link Post or Image Post.

   

8. Set Import existing Blogger posts as well as future ones the way you prefer. Leave it on to import past articles too, or turn it off to share only new posts going forward. When it's on, set the Number of Posts to Import (any value from 1 to 100).

   

9. (Optional) Turn on Mark the posts as draft for later review if you'd like to check each post before it's queued.

   

10. Set Publish Immediately the way you prefer. When it's on, Nuelink checks hourly, publishes the latest post right away, and queues the rest. (Existing posts are always queued, not published immediately.)

    

11. (Optional) Turn on Send a follow-up comment to add a comment after your post goes live, for example, a link back to the full article. Use the Condition setting to choose the delay (such as After delay, 60 minutes).

    

12. (Optional) Turn on Use smart conditions to only include posts whose titles contain (or don't contain) certain keywords. Choose Include or Exclude, then type a keyword and press Enter.

    

13. Leave Create a new collection for this automation on to make a fresh collection, or turn it off to add these posts to a collection you already have.

    

14. (Optional) Open Advanced Options for two extra settings: Auto-clean links (removes UTM and tracking parameters from your link) and Use a custom user agent (helpful if your blog blocks default crawlers).

    

15. Click Add Blogger Automation to finish.

    

Nice work, your automation is now running. Next, set up the collection so Nuelink knows where and when to post.

Set Up the Collection

When you create the automation, Nuelink makes a collection for it and starts importing your posts. Open that collection and go to its Settings tab to choose your channels, schedule, and recycling rules. Posts in this collection follow these defaults automatically.

1. Under Collection Name, give the collection a clear name and pick a Color code so it's easy to spot.

   

2. Under Default Social Channels, select the channels you want to post to. If you post to Pinterest, choose a board under Pinterest Board (one board per channel).

   

3. Under Weekly Schedule, set the days and times your posts should go out. Choose your days under Select Days, pick a time under Pick Time, then click Add slots. Posts fill the next available slot. Check that the time zone shown is correct, and click Change if you need to adjust it.

   

4. (Optional) Under Recycle (Evergreen), turn on Recycle published posts to reshare your content automatically. Set the Cooldown (how long before a post goes back into the queue) and the Repeat limit (how many times each post can recycle).

   

5. Under Queue Behavior, choose where new posts land: Top of the queue (post sooner), Bottom of the queue (post later), or Random (shuffle into the schedule).

   

6. Click Save Changes.

   

Open the Posts tab to review everything Nuelink has imported and lined up.

That's it, you're all set! From now on, every new Blogger article will turn into a social media post automatically, right on your schedule.

FAQs

How often does Nuelink check my Blogger blog for new posts? 

Every hour. The Blogger automation runs hourly, so new articles are usually picked up within an hour of being published.

Can I review posts before they go out? 

Yes. Turn on Mark the posts as draft for later review when setting up the automation. You can also edit any post, caption, format, or timing from the collection's Posts tab before it publishes.

Will Nuelink import my old blog posts too? 

Only if you want it to. Leave Import existing Blogger posts as well as the future ones on to bring in past articles (up to 100), or turn it off to share only new posts going forward.

Can I share posts as images instead of links? 

Yes. Under Choose post format, pick Image Post to share each article as an image, or Link Post to share it as a link.

How do I share only certain articles? 

Turn on Use smart conditions and add keywords. Nuelink will only include (or exclude) posts whose titles match those keywords.

Troubleshooting

New blog posts aren't showing up in Nuelink. 

The automation runs hourly, so give it up to an hour. Also double-check that the Blogger Link you entered is correct and that your blog is public.

My blog posts imported but aren't publishing to my channels. 

Open the collection's Settings tab and make sure you've selected at least one channel under Default Social Channels and added time slots under Weekly Schedule. Posts won't go out until both are set. Also check that Pause posting from this collection (under Advanced Options) is turned off.

I'm seeing older articles I didn't want to share. 

This happens when Import existing Blogger posts as well as future ones is on. Turn it off in the automation, and remove any older posts you don't want from the Posts tab.

The captions aren't what I expected. 

If AI captions are on, Nuelink writes them for you; you can edit any caption in the Posts tab before it publishes, or turn AI captions off and write your own using variables like ((title)) and ((link)).
