I’ve tried many of the free options for creating Facebook Tabs:
TabSite
Lujure
PageModo
Fiddled around with:
ShortStack
HyperArts
And even purchased a package via FanPageEngine (which is now iFrameEngine).
A few others (but it’s early & I haven’t had coffee yet).
Two that I’ve heard about but have not tried:
WooBox
Customizer by GroSocial
I feel generally familiar with what is out there…
I did purchase an SSL certificate to create and offer Facebook Tabs to clients and self-host.
What have others found the most successful method of facilitating via Wordpress?

Can someone explain the custom Facebook tab or post an example we can see? Thanks.

@Cansil, Here’s a link to a welcome tab we did for a ski retail store:
The Ski Bum Welcome
A reveal tab can be seen on this one: Aging with Vitality
We used WooBox and TabPress ( think!) Woobox lets you customize your own favicons (those little icons for your tabs), so we’ve been using that more lately.
Does that help?

For welcome pages and such I just program it in HTML, load it to the server, and pull it through to facebook with iFrames. This lets me do the basics.

@christinamarie7 2 followup questions:
1) Could you post an example of your HTML code? I know enough html that with a good example, I can probably get it.
2) Then do you just host it on a page on your own server? Could you elaborate a bit more?
Thanks.

Hi guys,
I just had a quick question – Is there such thing as an iPhone tab? and if there is, what does it do?
Thanks!!!

@elauragreen I am not familiar with an iPhone tab app – I did a quick search on the Facebook apps and didn’t see anything. Obviously Facebook has an iphone app where people can access Facebook from their iphone. But that’s all I’m aware of.

@andrea-vahl Thank you! I did some searching myself and that’s all I could find too.
