The issue which I see is, that I don't want to like every page which does like mine. It will generate a lot of mess on my wall. But a lot of users […]

Many people don't understand social networking […]

I think that ultimately what will produce the best results in your social media strategy is building an authentic community, and the only way to be "authentic" is to concentrate your efforts […]

The fake likes, well I can see why people do it. To a new potential customer on your fan page, if they see you have a lot of followers they […]

You might catch a few people with your content, but I'm afraid most 'like exchangers' will just mute your status updates.I just […]

I had no idea people went to such great lengths to appear well-supported. It's like cheating in board games […]

It doesn't make any sense to increase your number of fans but have nobody who actually cares about your products and brands. No engagement, no […]
