Best type of FB page for a new information lifestyle (and product) page?

2 replies
Hi Warriors,

My name is Felipe and I am new to the forum. I have a question for you regarding creating a Facebook page. I am looking at creating a new Facebook fan page for a new Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Lifestyle/Information site that I would like to create. I am in the process of creating a couple of products such as a book, instructional videos etc and was wondering what is the best way to go about setting it up? Is there any advantages or disadvantages to setting it up as a "Brand/Product", "Public Figure", "Entertainment" or "Community" page?

Although there will eventually be a few products available of the page, I plan to use the page to provide free useful content and motivational material not just push my product!

Also I checked out some another thread about buying likes for a new Facebook page to kind of gain credibility to begin with and kind of left the thread still a little confused!!! :-( Is it worth buying them for the type of page I am starting just to begin with? I have no doubt that I will build a solid following of targeted customers reasonably quickly but I thought maybe the head start might not hurt? Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am still a newbie to social media marketing!

Thanks and have a great day!
Kind Regards
Felipe

    Go for the "Brand or Product", since you're planning to offer a variety of products. Facebook's fan page differ in the categories that you can get to choose from. You may also choose "Public Figure" if you want to represent your company or products, as a public figure of course - on your name.

      Thanks! I was leaning towards "Brand or Product" as I was not going to use my name for the page but I wasn't sure if there were any benefits to using the various category pages.
