Now click on "Create a Recipe" button and proceed to the next step.

Step#3: Creating the "This" Trigger: 

A recipe consists of two things "This" and "That", in the first portion of creating our recipe we will work on "This". It is like if you have a new blog post then it will be published on twitter, or any other social site. So, simply click on the blue "this" link as it is shown in the screenshot below:

Now IFTTT will show you a list of channels that you can connect. It will act as the trigger like if your Blogger blog has a new post then [do something]. So, select Blogger from the list or search it in the search box.

IFTTT will now ask you to connect to your Blogger account, simply click on the "Connect" button to continue.

A window will pop on your screen asking you to verify your Blogger account, follow the instructions and verify your account. 

You must be logged in to your Gmail Blogger account before you can verify it. So, make sure you are logged in to the correct account. After logging in, press the "Allow" button to proceed to the next step.

After pressing the "Allow" button, it will show you the list of your Blogger blogs. Select a blog that you would like to use and press "Update".

IFTTT, will not try to connect to Blogger and once it is done it will show you a message that "Blogger is connected successfully". Now, click on 'Continue to next step’ button.

Now IFTTT will provide you a list or triggers that you can use. You can choose a trigger that fires whenever you publish a new post on your Blogger blog or  when you publish a post on Blogger in a specific Label.

Since, we want to publish our all posts so we will choose "Any New Posts" and proceed to the next step.

Step#3: Creating the "That" Trigger: 

Now we have completely setup the "This" statement now we need to work on "That" statement, so click on "Create Trigger".

Click on "That" link, in which we will basically define the type of actions that our recipe will perform after you publish a new post on your Blogger account.

Now you will see a huge list of services that you can auto-publish your blogger posts. Since, we are working for Twitter we will choose twitter. However, you can also choose any other social channel as well like Facebook, Google+, Linkden and etc.
