How to Automatically Share New Content on Social Media

Connect your website or app to zedgad so every new article, product, job, or listing is shared on social media as soon as it is published.

The best time to share new content is the moment it goes live. Automation makes that happen every time, not just when you remember.

Pick the publishing event

Start by deciding what should cause a post. For a blog, it is publishing an article. For a store, it might be a new product. For a job board, a new listing.

Each event needs a title, a short summary, a public URL, and ideally an image. Most content systems already store all four.

Connect the source to zedgad

On WordPress, install the zedgad plugin, paste your project API key, and choose which fields to send. Publishing a post will share it automatically.

On any other platform, send the same fields to the zedgad webhook or API when the event happens. The docs include examples for Python, Node, PHP, Ruby, Go, and cURL.

Test, then switch it on

Connect a test account or use a separate project first. Publish one real item and check how it looks on each platform.

Once it looks right, connect your real accounts. From then on, check the project log occasionally to confirm everything is publishing.

Key takeaway

Choose the event, send title, summary, link, and image to zedgad, and test before going live.

Practical workflow

From source to published result.

01

Choose the trigger

Decide which publishing event in your site or app should create a social post.

02

Connect it

Install the WordPress plugin, or call the webhook or API when the event happens.

03

Test and monitor

Publish a test item, check each platform, then watch the log as real content flows.

Questions

Before you publish.

Do I need to code?

Not on WordPress. Other platforms need a small webhook or API call, and the docs have copy-paste examples.

What content types can be shared?

Articles, jobs, events, products, listings, announcements, and custom updates.

Can I share only some content automatically?

Yes. Your site decides what to send, so you can filter by category, type, or any rule you like.

Create once. Publish everywhere.

Make your next post go further.
