Let Bambuser help you drive traffic to your website, blog, MySpace etc.

For those of you who have not yet connected your Bambuser account to Facebook, Twitter or any of the other supported 3:rd party services - try it out, it’s awesome! You’ll find out how easy it is to connect in this short tutorial.


Customize your status-update-URL


We know that many of you would like your viewers to watch your broadcasts at your own website, blog or MySpace page in order to boost traffic (learn more about how to embed your Bambuser channel or video). Therefore we added some things and now allow you to customize the link posted in the status update to the services and networks that you connect your Bambuser account to. It will look something like this:




To connect and make use of all this nice stuff, sign in to your Bambuser account and go to your Dashboard, where you'll find "Settings" on the right side of the screen. Scroll down to "3:rd party services" and connect to any service you automatically want to update - and feel free to customize the posted URL!




Enjoy :-)

Broadcast live directly on Facebook


We know you’ve all wanted this and now you've got it!

We’re taking our Facebook integration to a new level. When you have connected your Bambuser account to Facebook the live broadcasts will now be seen in the news feed – of course all your friends will also be able to watch it on demand from the news feed after you’ve finished broadcasting. We’ve been testing this day and night for the last few days and what we've seen is that the number of views per broadcast increases dramatically – yay!

If you already have connected your Bambuser account to Facebook you will have to disconnect it on bambuser.com and re-connect it again to make it work. We tried to find a shortcut but couldn't - sorry about this.
