Make Your Page More Attractive By Stepping Up Its Curb Appeal (3 posts)

  • If your fan page isn’t easy on the eyes, you might be scaring away your guests.

    While it’s true that installing applications with great content is one of the easiest ways to build out a ‘fan worthy’ Facebook page, there are other strategic steps you should be taking to enhance the look, and feel of your page.

    After adding more functionality to your page with powerful apps that add images and other goodies, you can take up a notch and layer on a smart (and visually appealing) wall posting strategy and you’ll be off to the races.
    A few helpful reminders:

    1) long URLs are ugly

    2) headlines sell papers

    3) thumbnail images should inspire

    4) always @mention referenced pages
    If you’re like most of us in this A.D.D. world, you may occasionally move too fast and post something before it’s ready for prime time.

    You can spruce up any post with a link shortener, an attention grabbing headline, some great images that add some punch to your posts, and don’t forget to give credit where credit is due with @mention links to your friends, followers, and fans.

    Don’t panic if you commit a party foul and push a weak post, that’s what the “remove” button is for on the right hand side.

  • @cohesian Great tips! 

    I have found the “Schedule post” availability in Facebook helps me to push the updates I want to reach more to the prime times. On one of my pages we are hosting an event this weekend. I created a post early afternoon about the event and reached 23% of our followers. I scheduled a post for 6:30pm EST last night about the event and that post reached 32% of our followers. We did not pay for promoted posts on either. 

  • @cohesian good points…i have  removed some!!! and im  trying to use the @  feature more.
