20 Ways to Increase Your Facebook Likes!

February 6, 2012 / Search Engine Optimization The Woodlands / One comment
  1. Advertise on Facebook to get more “likes”. This is the quickest way to grow your fan base. The Supre fashion brand did this to obtain almost 400,000 fans quickly.
  2. Rotate your ads “DAILY” !
  3. Add Facebook Social Plugin Box to your Blog and Website
  4. Offer a free exclusive video that can only be viewed if you like the page.
  5. Run a competition. Everyone likes a competition! :)
  6. Make it obvious on a custom landing page by providing a big bold “Like our Page”
  7. Initially ask friends and family to like your page. A bit overdone but essential at the beginning
  8. Offer a free ebook or whitepaper to obtain a “like” (just like you should be doing for email subscriber acquisition on your website)
  9. Post content from your blog to Facebook whenever you write a new post. Facebook users love receiving new content on Facebook without having to go looking for your blog. Treat Facebook as an extension of your blog.
  10. Provide enticing high resolution photos. Compelling photos that are appropriate for your target audience will keep them coming back and make them share and so drive more likes from their friends
  11. Ask questions regularly using Facebook’s native question app.
  12. Include a link to your Facebook page in your email signature
  13. Provide a compelling welcome video on your Facebook landing page
  14. Simple but often missed: Add a “follow us” on Facebook button near the top of your website and blog pages
  15. Create an incentivised “Like” page that gives people a reason to like your page.
  16. Include the Facebook like button on your email HTML template so that people can like your facebook page from the regular email newsletter
  17. Add a large custom banner to your blog and website asking people to “Like
  18. Add a link to your Facebook page as one of your three LinkedIn website links that are part of your LinkedIn settings in your profile
  19. Add a newsworthy update that is relevant for your industry or market niche to your Facebook page every day
  20. Offer “Specials” including discounts to Facebook fans. The majority of Facebook users “like” a page to obtain a discount.

Well, you have lots of ideas here so get busy and implement them!

Add Tabs to FaceBook Fan Page

February 9, 2011 / Search Engine Optimization The Woodlands / 162 comments

Would you like to add tabs to your FaceBook fan page.

You can, however, use the fbml application to create a custom box that is used as a tab. The tab will be whatever you name it, such as Welcome or Services, and that tab will contain whatever data you included in that fbml box.

  1. Install the Static FBML application on your fan page.
  2. Select the link that says ‘Add to My Page’.
    static
  3. Go to the main page and click on Edit page
  4. Select the FBML application and click on the pencil icon to begin editing the page.
  5. Name the box and add your html or text. Then save the changes. By default this will be a new box or your boxes tab.
    editfbml
  6. Go page to the Edit page that lists all of your applications. Locate the fbml box that you just created and select Application Settings under the pencil icon.
    appset
  7. Click on remove to get rid of the box and then click on add to convert the new box into a tab. Then click on ‘Okay’.
    settings
  8. You will have a new custom tab with the content that you added to the FBML box.
  9. Unfortunately, you can’t add more fbml boxes to the custom tab so everything you want under this tab needs to be contained in that one box.
  10. If you want to make more custom boxes or tabs, edit the fbml box that you have already made and then scroll to the bottom of the page. Here is where you can add more boxes – a new browser tab or window will be opened to do this. Once you use fbml for the first time, it no longer looks like the application is available and people think they can only use one box. It’s just that the application is replaced by the boxes that you make and at the bottom of the edit screen is where you can create more of them. I don’t know why that it but it’s super confusing.

You can create a tab for Services, Portfolio, or Contests.  You can even add your blog feed.

For information on adding content to your custom tab, see my next post and I’ll even tell you ow to add your blog feed.

Until next time, share this post with your friends and comment below!
