Build Lists with Facebook


If your online business includes building a list, then here are few steps for you to build your list using Facebook.
  1. Create a Fan Page by clicking on "Pages >Create a page" in your home page.
  2. Once you create a fan page with your website details - post your blog posts/ articles in the "Wall".
  3. Create a "Notes" tab and publish your Featured content/articles in this section.
  4. Using FBML (Facebook Markup Language) you can create custom widgets for your fan pages. Now, using the FBML create a new "subscribe" widget where you can display your squeeze page.
Create Subscribe widget with FBML application


Here are the steps involved to set up a FBML application.
  1. At the top of the Face book page, search for 'Static FBML' in the search box and go to the application page.
  2. Below the FBML picture on the left, click on the link that says 'Add to my Page'; once you've clicked it a box will come up. Next to your page click the button 'Add to Page'.
  3. Go to your page.
  4. On the left below your page picture click 'Edit Page'.
  5. Scroll down until you see 'FBML - FBML', click the link 'Edit' beneath that. Change the Box Title to something like 'Subscribe'.
  6. Use the below code to include your squeeze page.
    <fb:fbml version="1.1">
    <font size="5">Subscribe to my newsletter!</font>
    Your squeeze page code here
    </fb:fbml>
  7. Click 'Save Changes' then go back to your page and click the '+' button next to the 'Boxes' tab. And select the name of your FBML in the drop down menu.
  8. Now click 'Edit Page', click 'Edit' under 'Wall Settings' and beside 'Default Landing Tab For Everyone Else' change it from Wall to the Name of your FBML tab.
You're done! Now, everyone who visits your page sees your squeeze page in your "subscribe" tab.
