Getting likes to your fb group

19 replies
Hello,

I am trying to build an fb group.

I got two likes so far in a day's period, but I want to know if there is a smarter approach to get more likes someone can suggest.

    Hello,
    A proven method is to provide quality content. Start providing quality, unique content on a consistent basis. The simple strategy of providing value to users will output likes. Start engaging with with similar pages and if you have a marketing budget you can run facebook ads to "boost" your posts. Hope that helps.

    You have to market your facebook page and "like button" app (or whatever) as if you were marketing anything else. Paying for facebook likes isn't something that i would do - and i dont know if it's something that you should do. Out of curiosity... why do you want to get lots of "likes"? Why not promote and build relationships via your email newsletter?

    Make sure you have something valuable & engaging in your posts.
    Then you can invite your friends to 'like' & also 'share'.

    Content and value is great but FB is so overactive with the constant posting going on that many people won't even notice your posts let alone group.

    I know some people ask me to like their pages (and I think that they have some way of asking their whole friends lists not just me), so sometimes I just like their page.

    You can buy likes, but Facebook is getting greedy nowadays. It doesn't matter how engaged you get your followers, FB won't show your post's, unless you pay for it. I've built many pages by buying likes, and always got good engagement, but God forbid I don't boost a post, and I'll be lucky if 8 people see it

    You are better off sending that traffic to your own site IMHO.

      Boosting a post to a low CPC audience (bangladesh, india, malaysia, nigeria etc) will help build up likes fast. I know these countries may not be potential customers but these guys seem to like absolutely anything and it will make your page look more trustworthy in the initial stages.

        Yeah, that will most probably kill your engagement because of dead audience. More harm than good. The point is not the number of likes on the page, but the number of people who actually engage in things you post.

    The fastest approach is to spend some money to buy likes by advertisement on Facebook.

    There are many ways to attract new likes and one of them is to contact some 3rd party provider of likes.

    Public quality content with a good coopy, be interactive with who makes you like, often publishes video and it is not yet doing enough sponsorship with FB Ads.

    Hi, There is a way I found. There's a plugin that has just come out which generates like on your facebook page automatically. Pretty neat hey.

    Hey

    First correct your question. What I see you have created a page and got only two likes because if you would have created a group then you could have option to add people in your group not get likes.

    You should try to get people to share your page or link them to your website, Twitter page or other communication towards your target group.

    Facebook groups function in totally different ways than facebook pages.

    For facebook groups, you need to get facebook members - and you can only add those who are your friends, or let the new group members come by themselves, from Facebook search

    Like some have said provide good content and engage with similar groups, Paid advertising may be one of the quickest ways.
