What am I doing wrong??

8 replies
Please help. I am running a fb campaign. FB Fan page and I have an Aweber default tab for them to enter name and email address in exchange for a FREE ebook. I have gotten 184 likes on my FB Fan Page in 2 days but not a single opt in. What gives?

    1. You are giving away too much information before the opt-in box comes into play.

    2. Facebook people have figured out a way to bypass Aweber's system and get your ebook for free without having to subscribe to your email list

    3. I don't know until I see your Facebook fan page.

    4. You are being royally screwed by someone who promised you Facebook likes to your fan page

      5. Nobody wants your stupid ebook.

      Seriously, a lot of people put up an opt-in form promising something like "learn how to poop the alphabet!" and then wonder why nobody's joining their list.

    Have you paid for the likes ? These might be bots - not legitimate people.

    People on facebook and internet are getting tired of spam and are getting much more careful, where they put their email in. But giving a like is not hard

    Actually they are seeing seeing the opt in tab. Rename the opt in tab. Make the opt in tab the default tab, so that i will be the first page the see after liking your page.

    I agree with others. Check the quality of your free offer and traffic you are sending to the offer. Good quality opt-ins are not so easy to come by anymore - especially on Facebook where users are not so active with regular email.

    Have you thought about creating a fan page where you add a little of the content from your free ebook each week or every few days? Connect with users right on Facebook.
