WordPress powers more than 16% of the web, and Facebook, aspires  to be the web for its more than 900 million users. So, in that context, the integration makes quite a lot of sense for both parties.

However the integration is not for the in-experienced and involves a lot of terminology so we recommend clients contact us for help.

The benefits of the WordPress to Facebook integration are:

• Publishing a post on WordPress will share the post automatically to your timeline
• Link to the page will be share
• Post to an author’s Facebook Timeline whenever a post is made public
• Mention Facebook friends and pages. New posts will be published to the timelines of the mentioned account(s) and displayed alongside the post.
• Like, send, and subscribe buttons can be easily added to a post to drive social distribution with custom settings scoped to your Facebook application identifier.
• Facebook Comments Box social plugin including noscript fallbacks for easy indexing by search engines.
• Open Graph protocol integration to help your content stand out in Facebook newsfeed, Twitter Cards, Windows 8 bookmarks, and other consuming agents.
• Recommendations bar helps visitors discover more content on your site by recommending other articles and encouraging Like shares.
