Facebook Pros - What Would You Do If You Were In My Situation

2 replies
Hi everyone...

I am considering facebook as one of my main sources of traffic to build my list and sell info products too. However, I am concerned a little and this is why ....

I created a account on Facebook years ago, but my name used to create the facebook account was abbreviated not to expose my full real name completely due to trust issues with internet hacks etc , keeping my info private, etccc not trusting facebook and what they may do down the road and how they misuse my personal information in ways that I did not approve off.

Up to this point, if I sign in 2 times a year it is a lot, don't have many people listed there either purposely, so I do not have a long list of friends or family on there maybe 6 to 7 people

MY CONCERN: How do you think this will affect me in my information marketing business down the road, and marketing efforts on facebook or do you think this is not something for me to worry about and should just keep it as is being the my real 1st name is being used and my last name initials "Dl" is being used...

Example : You Used This Name To Create FB Acct - Frank Perez Dl ( so you used your real first name your mothers last name and initials of your real last name ( so it is not totally fake, you made it harder to figure out because of the initials )



I am currently researching and considering using facebook advertising to do the following:
1) Build my list of subscribers
2) target people on facebook that are interested in making money online & new people interested in affiliate marketing or already active in affiliate marketing affiliate marketers
3) To sell other people products and my own products

    Personally I don't think it matters what your facebook URL name is in terms of marketing. You are able to change your display name, there are loads of people with identical names on facebook.

    Alternatively, just start a brand new account and call yourself whatever you like ;-)

      Well if you are planning on running ads in the news feed you will have to have a fan page to do that. Also if you plan on doing a lot of advertising I would suggest using dark post instead of regular so that your page doesn't just have ads on it.

      Of course you could just run ads that send traffic directly to your website, but most people, including me prefer to use a promoted post and link to the offer from their.

      So no I don't think your name will matter much.
