Promoting Your Facebook Channel

(Internet Marketing Powertool)

Facebook has come a long way toward making your website more personalized and social. There is a list of great social plugins that can be easily embedded into your website and drive lots of new visitors: “Like Button” plugin, which is almost everywhere now, “Like Box”, which let’s you become a fan of the website without leaving the page, “Live Stream” which is often used while broadcasting some event. Try them on your website and see what happens next.

The “Like” and “Share” Buttons: These two are so powerful that they require a separate paragraph. Once you own an online store – those buttons are of exceptional value. Whenever you find something that appeals to you in an online store – you no longer need to copy the URL and send it to your friends to ask for their opinion. Just press the “Like” button. They will see that and comment on it. This applies to photos, videos, games, blog posts, reviews – literally anything that can be found on the web.

Put links everywhere! Once you have a website, you put its address everywhere – e-mail signatures, forum signatures, twitter info, author bio section, LinkedIn profile, links section of your blog. Do exactly the same with your Facebook Page. Highlight your Facebook page presence at offline events, print it on your business card, use every opportunity you have.

Power Tip: Take some twitter auto follow script that follows a person whenever he has specific keywords in his tweet. Some percent of the people you’ve followed will follow you back. Write an engaging request to join your Facebook fan page and set it as an automatic direct message to people, who have just followed you. Being launched, this system will drive new fans to your Facebook page on a regular basis.
