How's my new Facebook page?

32 replies
I'm in the process of building a new Facebook Community Page. I'm about to begin an advertising campaign to promote this page but wanted to make sure that I'm setting myself up for success.. All comments are appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

    It's look really cool and interesting. I wouldn't write so much in the status updates though.

    Keep it simple and to the point

    Did you design those awesome beards yourself?

    Honestly, I love it. I'm not too interested in beards but I still stayed on the page and read a few of your posts. I particularly like how you have provided detailed posts which don't contain any links or ask the visitor to go somewhere else.

    I think you could have a more exciting header for your page.

    Seems like a great idea though.

      The beards were professional designed and are featured on my website. I appreciate the input!

      I'm not sure what you mean. Could you please rephrase? Thanks!

      I view Facebook as an extension of my website. I realize not everyone will end up on the site but a like is as good, if not better, than a single unique visitor. I appreciate the kind words.

      I just quickly made the header. I'll definitely be adding a professionally designed one shortly. Thanks for the feedback!

    First thing that popped into my head is to get guys to post pics of funny beards and/or their own beards. That might go viral.

      Thanks for the comments!

      I'm planning on running an advertising campaign to promote the page. Once completed I will run a contest which offers $100 cash to the most liked self-submitted beard picture. I'm hoping it'll go viral. Any suggestions?

          Solid idea. I didn't even think about "celebrity beards" as it pertains to the community page. Thanks for the comment!

        Nice page you got there. Although I think the posts are a bit wordy but cool pic. Way to go buddy.

          Thanks! I submitted my ad two days ago and it still shows up as "pending review"...

          Should I cancel and re-create it or just wait it out?

            I'm not into beards myself but your posts caught my eye. Are there any more types of beards out there? I think I will come back to the page to check it out later.

    I think its so cool, a bit worded on the posts and the description, maybe make it shorter. The pic says it all, love the pics.. overall -- i think its really cool!

    I like it. It's crisp and clear. Seems like "beards" might be a good little niche too.

      Thanks. Crisp and clean is what I was aiming for.

      I need 8 more likes to get insights...

    I suggest that you should post photos with caption which is connected to your fanpage. Pretty good help.

    Haha, you do have a cool page, and most of all, it's original. I haven`t seen a page about beards so far. Keep up the good work!

    Your images would be good on Pinterest (if you have not already done so) and get loads of beard images, and maybe get some guest contributors...

    Neat page - I gave you a LIKE. To get more LIKEs, you might ask folks in some Facebook groups you belong to if they would help you out. Most groups allow that and most people will be happy to help you out.

    I think the pictures are awesome and the wording is concise, and, personally, I can't imagine the wording being any shorter.

    It would be cool to add some beard memes to the mix at some point too. Anything funny has a tendency to be shared and go viral.

    Since you can set up Facebook to automatically send a tweet to Twitter whenever you post, I would set up a complementary Twitter account too. Pinterest is already mentioned and is a great idea. I usually set up complementary social media accounts for every niche. They include: Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, Youtube, and Google Plus. Sometimes, I add Tumblr, Instagram, and Rebel Mouse to the equation.

    Best wishes on your endeavor.

    I'm about to start a campaign but I'm having trouble choosing a photo and tag line. Do certain colors work better than others? Should their be a CTA within the advertisements text? Or would a funny picture work best?
