Boy do I have questions about Fan pages.1.How easy is it to make one2.Where do you get the images to use on creating the page3.How do you get more traffic to your page.4.How many pages can you make.5. how do you add other places you find on your page.6. do you want others to comment on it like they can do on your personal page. 7. Do likes bring traffic or help with SEO

 I will stop here for now!! Smile

1 : About making pages.It depends on your skills, however facebook has really very easy to go interface and does not take big efforts to create a page for business. Simply just go https://www.facebook.com/pages/create.phpChoose business category, enter name and address, and create your page! Once it is created, just fill it up with logo, cover photo, basic information etc. (But you gotta be very careful in selecting category: If yours is business, there are many subcategories, or if you are creating fan page for celebrity or nonprofit or community topics etc., there are separate blocks of categories for them)
2: When it comes to use images, most businesses prefer to use their own, like their logos, products’ and brands’ images, office images etc. If you can afford you can go for buying royalty free images as well. 
3: Your third question is the one which hundreds of thousands of marketers keep looking for. So to be honest, it can not be answered in a single line or a post of text here. I would rather suggest you to go through one old post that our leading member made here: 
4: There is no such limit on number of pages you can manage for now. Refer (https://www.facebook.com/help/?faq=154425331291869)
5: For adding places nearby you, you can use your mobile fb app. Login to fb from your phone, select nearby, tap on check-in button, type in the name and add description of the place. That’s all. https://www.facebook.com/help/?faq=175921872462772
6: This last question is still tricky. But many page owners have successfully managed to boost their web traffic just by using their fb pages. But this needs constant marketing, free giving, contest and other elements of fan engagement. 
Hope this helps! Its time to put a stop here for me for now

@nicole-allen Thanks!Yes you are right, many companies (even big brands) do fail when it comes to follow cover guidelines. Most common mistake they make is they put their contact info (either phone num or email or web url) which is strictly not allowed in cover photos. Rules are : 

1) No phone, email, url or any other contact info, 

2) No call to action like “like us”, “download now”, “get free stuff now”, “buy now” etc., 

3) No price details of your product/services on cover photo

I do pubic relations and promotions primarily for rock bands, singers songwriters etc. I have a major problem creating name ID especially for unsigned artists…am I in the right place? thought?
