Twitter Auto Post is our service that allows you to post your Radio and TV stations ‘Now Playing’ songs or videos to your Twitter feed.
We offer a hosted service that can grab your 'Now Playing' song or video from any compatible streaming server (we support Shoutcast v1, Shoutcast v2, Icecast, RadioJar, SAM Cloud, Tikilive, Radio.co, CAST, Live 365, Centova Cast, Airtime Pro and many more) and then add an image*, tag the artist* and then send it over to your Twitter feed. Simple as that!
You can customise the message with each post, set the frequency of each post, add hashtags, emoticons, turn features on and off, all from our custom built control panel (see screenshots below).
Don't just post the names of the songs to your Twitter account for your followers to see, give them something extra... Give them a photo of the artist or cover art (selectable via the control panel*), tag the artist* with each song and even monetize your Twitter feed by adding 'Buy this song' links to each tweet which can link to your Apple iTunes or Amazon affiliate accounts.
There are loads of additional features such as the ability to filter out Jingles, promos and adverts and even adding custom images for artists and creating entries for artists not in our database. All configurable via the control panel.
Each Twitter Auto Post account comes with our 'Static' and 'RSS' posting features. With 'Static' posting, you can schedule up to 20 independent messages (with images) to post to your Twitter feed at regular intervals or specific times of the day. Ideal for posting show info!
The 'RSS' posting allows you to schedule up to 5 independent RSS feeds to post to your Twitter feed at regular intervals or specific times of the day. Ideal for posting blog or website updates, news or weather updates, etc...
