We try very hard to avoid desktop applications since we need access from our homes, on the road and at the office. For managing our Twitter,  Facebook Profiles/Pages and LinkedIn accounts we have been using Hoot Suite.

Hoot Suite uses a browser instead of a program and allows us to have it running in a window behind what we are currently working on. When we need to post an update,  it’s there.  We are confident in recommending this service and of coarse are big fans of using social media’s to promote products across the web. The site also has a very FAQ and help section. There is even mobile apps.

I hope this helps, and we are looking forward to see you tweets, updates and tiny URL’s about your Ahwooga listings.

A couple minutes after posting your listing, it gets pulled into Google shopping through their API system and your item is visible with in 5 to 6 hours and has the chance of being on page one in Google depending on keywords typed in by a Google user.

At the same time it is pulled into another Google Product called Feedburner and is automatically viewable by away one following the RSS feed.

From Feedburner, it is RSS fed into one of our Twitter accounts and published with a shortened URL to your listing attached. It takes around 30 minutes for your listing to be on Twitter.

From Twitter, it is RSS Fed into one of our Facebook fan pages in both chronological and reverse chronological order. It can take a couple hours for your listing to be on Facebook.

So here is an example;
Here is a listing for a 2007 Suzuki GSX600 on Ahwooga.com
