Starting a website facebook fanpage from zero

6 replies
Hello Warriorforum. I have made a website for sharing photos and vids in Drupal CMS. Number of visitors is low so I would like to promote the website on facebook, but I have no previous facebook experience.

Considering facebook I wonder if it is better to have a fan page linked to a personal account or if it is better to have a completely different account for the fan page without a personal page? Does it make any difference?

How would you do to start up a website fan page on facebook from zero with no facebook friends or other connections?

    Setup a fan page using your personal Facebook account (no need for a separate account just to setup a fan page). Populate the fan page with lots of content - sharing your website content on your page will suffice.

    Once the page is fleshed out with content, run a Facebook "like" campaign. If executed properly, you can build your fan base virtually overnight for less than $0.10 per like. Spending as little as $4/day should be plenty to grow your fanbase.

    Use some like exchange platforms as likemode.com to gain the first 100 or 1000 likes for free.

      Than you for your answer I will thank you officially when I get 5 or more posts . Btw: Will those likes be artificial in some way or from real people that have a possitive attitude to the content that I post? Can the like campaign be narrowed to only target people from certain countries, age groups etc to be more efficient?

    What exactly happens if a person likes my fan page. How does it generate more traffic?

    If a person uses the "share" button I guess content or link will appear in their facebook flow and also in their friends flow if the sharer chooses that option. I have a sharebutton associated to my posts, but it does not include the content that should be shared like images and videos when I click it. How do I include the content to the share so that not just a link is shared. Any ideas?

    I have seen that some pages use a "recommend" button. How is that different
    from "like"? Is recommend just "like" with different text?

    Facebook fan pages can not have friends as understand it. They can have followers. Is it possible to send messages from my the fan page to to people with content similar to "Hey there, take a look on my website" or is there some punishment for such "spamlike" behavior?

    I think that kind of behavior would not be very good idea, people would feel offended and might form negative attitude to your website, sometimes even report your page.

    The point of getting "page likes" is that they will become your followers, page like and post like are different, post like occurs when they enjoy your post so they like it.

    But "page like" means that they like your page and need more feeds from you, so basically they become your follower and are likely to see future posts from you.

    Howevery, the number of people who will see your post will be based on your "reach," for example if you have 1000 real likes on your page, and everytime you post something 20 of them see it that mean your reach is 2%.

    However the reach can varies from page to page, but the fact is that the more like from your target customer the more people can see you.

    You can easly use personal account. There will be no special deal with it. Just set up page, connect it with business page. Fill up page with informational content and start posting valuable content for audience you are planing to gather. Spend some time to think about that what they realy would like to read or watch. When you do that you can start with faceboo ads and build audience
