My wordpress blog doesn't populate facebook's news feed properly

I'm new to facebook and wordpress, but need to figure thi开发者_开发知识库s out.

How exactly does the news feed on facebook extract information from the url you provide? What does it look for?

Right now on my blog there is the content and a side bar with an author bio. The bio ends up being the text the news feed extracts and not the post's content.

Perhaps someone out there can explain to me how I should "optimize" my blog so that the posts' content does show up.

Look at your newsfeed in a RSS reader and see what's already included in the feed. Post content is already included in a WordPress feed, unless you're running a feed plugin that changes it: http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Feeds
