I need more fans to my fb page.

8 replies
Hello warriors!I hope everybody enjoying nice summer weather.
I am part time photographer, and i need more people to see my pictures and my services. My target market are spending quit a lot of time in fb, so I want to attract as many people as i can to my fan page and to get exposed. I dont wanna do paid traffic. Do you guys know any free ways to build a solid following on fb fan page?At the moment I have 561 fans.(I gathered this number in about 20days) I know is not always about the number is about relationship with those people.

Thank you for your answers in advance

      OK, here is what you have to do if you want to take advantage of Facebook's viral nature:

      Create a static FBML tab for your fan page.

      Make this the default tab for visitors.

      On the tab, put an arrow pointing to where the "LIKE" button is and put some text saying to "Like" us.

      521 of your fans have already done this, so this is for those who are not fans.

      For your current fans, the goal should be to make them use the "Share" button.

      Both times, when a fan likes and shares your page, all of their friends will see it and that is when it can go "viral".

      I would say you are doing a GREAT job already if you have 521 fans in 20 days. That is awesome. It does seem to slow down a bit once you hit that 500 mark doesn't it?

      Try sending messages to all your fans with new and exciting content, then asking them to "share it"

      Also try holding a giveaway prize drawing that takes place when you hit a certain amount of fans such as 2,ooo or something. Everyone who is a fan at that time can be entered to win etc.

      Hope this helps!

    I recommend you get more friends that you can invite. More friends = more fan page invites.

    You can also pay people to advertise your page on their profiles, groups or fan pages. Check out Fiverrr.com for good deals on this.

    if you look for EVO2 software from Peter Drew (he is a member here) it comes with a module to add facebook friend, that software does a lot more so using it just for the facebook functionality might be overkill.

    Thanks guys. Basically my market is Lithuania. And there is a lot of photographers just like my. Some of them dont have good portfolio, but portfolio(product) not always the case, isnt, marketers?

    Well i found kind of a strategy that works really good, but you know when you get over 500 fans in 20 days you still think there is not that much. I basically ask my friends(who are already my fan) to tell his friends about my page. If its a good friend he or she will send invitations. Today I did something unusall I found one girl has a fan page she is selling leather products, and she have like 400 fans and just about the same in her friend list. So i sent invitation to my friends about her page and she did the same, so its like doing a JV deal.But i think the pages must be in diferrent niches.

    Hey marius,

    Such a great result with your fan page. I hope you'll have more fans in upcoming days. This is one of my idea how to get new fans through FB fab page:

    Video Sharing.. You can post the video to youtube and share it to your FB.. a really valuable video can give you a lot of fans.
    You can use bubbleply to put the link of your fb page to your video.. It will make the person who watches the video click on the link and direct them to your FB fan page. If they like to video.. they will surely become your fan.


    or have your heard of Fiverr ? The place for people to share things they?re willing to do for $5 for just $5.. Someone can give you more fans in your FB fan page.

      Thank for the answer. I never heard about Fiverr. I just visited and I think this is awesome. But I dont really need just a lot of random people. As i mentioned before i need people from my country. But i think if have a lot of fans from other countries make me look maybe even better. Well i will think about that.

      Video is a great idea.I am not exactly sure how it works.Do you have real life example?I really would like to see it. Thank you

    I got this little trick for you. You can extractor list of email address using an email extractor. One is free at bigbooster. Add the list to your gmail/yahoo acct and use the auto invite friends in facebook. Mostly likely alot of the people will be from your town if you use an email that someone has forwarded about a local event. Say a county fair or something like that. You know these emails are the ones that your dad/mom/bro/bestfriend forwarded to you that has thousands of email address. hope this helps.
