IFTTT - What`s your favourite recipe for marketing?

[captainT]

Hello guys,

I found IFTTT through a thread here on the forum and it is really great. Started today by connecting the rss funtionality of google alerts to a google spreadsheet and now I am monitoring the hell out of the internet

Which IFTTT recipes are you using for marketing/research/content automaton?

Muchas Gracias in advance for your answers!

rss feeds to certain evernote notebooks under certain stacks
Had a brilliant idea to monitor certain feeds in a relatively organised way.
You can monitor and swift through forum feeds and even product feeds.
I've only discovered about 1.5% of what ifttt can do.
Bet they have a shit load of power now. Free for use and you give them access to
your profiles.
I hope they don't become the automation google in regards of data usage.

Just found this goldmine... http://www.seerinteractive.com/blog/ifttt-recipes-for-marketers/

This one looked particularly useful, especially for you traffic leakers. Seems simple, but I would have done it manually forever if I hadn't seen this.

Monitor Reddit for Content
WHAT IT MEANS: Keep track of relevant Reddit subreddits to get content ideas, or to answer questions as an industry authority

HOW TO DO IT:

• • Go to a relevant subreddit (i.e. http://www.reddit.com/r/seo)
  • Find the subreddit’s RSS feed by adding .rss to the end of the url (i.e.http://www.reddit.com/r/seo.rss)

CREATE A RECIPE ON IFTTT:

• • THIS Channel: RSS
  • New feed item matches – select a keyword or simple phrase relevant to your brand or industry
  • Enter in the subreddit RSS URL
  • THAT Channel: Email
  • Repeat for any relevant keywords or phrases.

Now, you’ll get an email any time someone posts in that subreddit about something relevant to your brand or industry.
