I like having a Facebook page for my blog since I'm already an active Facebook user in my personal life.
When I set it up, I wanted it to have the right mix of content there. It needed to include my blog feed with titles and description AND the feed from my Twitter account without the tweets about my blog content (in other words, I wanted content from both social media without duplication).
Here's my solution:
Use Feedburner.com to post my blog feed to Twitter (go to http://www.Feedburner.com and burn your feed, then click Publicize, then click Socialize and adjust your settings). I like this better than TwitterFeed because it automatically turns my blog topic tags into hashtags on Twitter.
I use NetworkedBlogs to post my blog feed to my Facebook page. It works well and is another entry point for followers.
Use the Selective Tweets app on Facebook to shoot select Tweets over to the Facebook blog page (i.e., the Tweets that are not related to blog posts). All I did was install the app, set it up, then I add the hashtag #fb to any Tweet I want to also post on the Facebook blog page (when it appears on the fan page there's no #fb hash tag; appears within two minutes).
Check out my Facebook page and see what you think.
