The first 100 followers on FB

13 replies
100 Real FB followers, it not sounds like much.

But everybody, whoever started from scratch and without a budget knows how difficult it is.
I have a FB page with 13K real followers, but when today my new page reach 100FB likes, I made a little jump.

Yes, I could have had 100followers in the first hour. Inviting my friends, buying them, swapping them or with advertising. But I didn't, I wanted really people who liked what this page is about. And that makes the 100 Followers more valuable than you can imagine.

    So, how long did it take to reach that numbers? Which kind of general strategy did you use (if you woul like to share it)?

      Around 2months, but the first 1,5month I got just 20 followers, the last weeks it went faster,

      First i just started with making my page, choosing one style of posting.

      In the last 2 weeks I started to like comments of people who are commenting in on posts of other pages. Pages that are similar to mine. And that helped, because those people start to visit and follow my page.

    Interacting with other groups and pages makes a huge difference in page likes. It gets your name out in front of users that you already know are interested in your niche, plus it allows them to see you as interactive - instead of just an omniscient 'spammy' being.

    Congrats on your first 100 followers!

    This is a very true realization that you have pointed. Those first 100 likes are like the pillar on which a strong building will be built afterwards. So those first 100, I would say first 1000 likes are very important for any facebook page.

    Its true that accomplishing first 100 likes can be difficult, but once you have achieved that, there is no looking back.

      Sure, I could have asked my friends, but that are not the followers I wanted.
      If I would have asked my friends I would have had 250 Followers on the first day.

      The idea was to start from nothing, and only get those followers who really are interested. And friends would follow me just because they are sympatric to me.

    That's pretty cool you got all of those followers in an organic way. I think it took my small business about a week to get 100 Facebook followers.

      I agree with you, it could have been done faster.

      But I'm sure also for you the first 100 was like making a small jump.
      And you will jump again at 1.000 10.000 and so on )

    It is better to focus on the quality rather than quantity. 100 fans with 10% engagement rate is always better than 1000 fans with 0.001% engagement rate.

    Congrats on your milestone. Great job.

      Thank you guys, but I think it is more about the feeling that we all know, then the way how I did it.
