Building A List From a FB Fan Page?

3 replies
If you've got a Facebook fan page, and a few thousand fans in that niche, can you build a list from them?
I'm thinking of 3 main strategies. Are these good? What are the regular strategies used? Here's my 3 ideas:
  1. Just put out a few posts like this: "Are you getting useful information from this page? Get even more useful info by signing out for our newsletter email@email.com!"
  2. A few more posts ever so often that promote a free offer they can get by entering their email.
  3. Putting the email on the about part.
Am I right? I'm just making a good guess. What is the way you use or most people use?

Thank you. Here's my page, haven't started the ad campaign yet, but I will after I've added a bit more content:

    It's quite simple for you to build a list with your Facebook fan page. First things first, you need to promote your FB page in various relevant forums. Just put your FB fan page as a signature which says "Like us on Facebook", and always be active in those forums. From there, you will be getting some likes, and it will slowly grow. Also, don't forget to update your Facebook fan page on a regular basis. Once you get a decent amount of likes, just share your website with a free offer, so that they can opt-in.

    My preferred method is using a fangate and buying ads to the fangate. I ask for the like, offer the free download and then offer a second freebie that requires opting in. This way I get a like and a subscriber. Of course not everyone who likes the page subscribes. You could require the like and the opt in ... I did this for a while, but I decided to go the 2 freebie route to give more value.

    Another very good way I've been getting subscribers from FB is simply making FB posts with a link to my site. On the site I have prominent opt in boxes.

    Most posts on fanpages get overlooked as huge pages are on facebook!
    What about messaging your fans? Did anybody try it?
