Facebook is the biggest and most popular social networking site. People talk about Facebook every time and everywhere. And now, beside Search Engine Optimization (SEO) plan, almost web master/owner think about ways to increase Fans for their Facebook Page in order to drive traffic to their page then go to their website.
Truly, if you have thousands of Fans, people will trust you as well as your service or product and also impress first time visitors who are your potential customers/fans. Vice versa, it’s so bored if just a few people know and visit your page, include you. Therefore, number of Facebook Fans is a main factor we need to care about.
However, increasing Facebook Fans is never an easy job. It takes a lot of time, creative jobs and have to be patient. In this post, I would love to share ways I try to increase Facebook Fans. And I also want to hear from you, let’s share your great ideas in the comment box.
1. Buy Facebook Fans
Yeah, this is an easiest and fastest way. It’s good idea if you’re new but please very careful as this may violates Facebook policy.
2. Buy Facebook ads
Another solution to increase Facebook Fans rapidly if you have budget.
3. Place Facebook Like Box on your website/blog
Place it in your website/blog template to make sure it will be appeared on every page.
4. Ask friends to like your Facebook page
I’m quite sure that you have hundred of friends in your list include family, friends and co workers. Let’s try to ask them like your page, I think they’re willing to support you. For example, you invite 100 friends then you have 25 fans. It’s so great and FREE. 🙂
5. Create a landing page and drive people there
Let create a landing page and say welcome to new visitors instead of linking them to the Wall. Try to introduce yourself and let people know why they should become your fan.
6. Offer gift or something free
They could be free e-books, downloadable product links, especial present like iPad, iPod, etc.
People like gift and something free. Me too. But those stuffs are just for Fans so they need to like your page (with creative call to action in your landing page) in order to access the restricted place.
7. Ask your fans to share your fan page
Meaning you need to have high quality, interest and unique contents.
8. Launch a new promotion
This will help to get more fans quickly depend on your prizes.
For example, you create an game or application that allow people to play then invite their friends (they have to like and become your fan) to have more chances to win a prize. Lets say 5 friends – 5 chances.
9. Utilize profile information & email signature
Don’t forget them. Try to add your Facebook Page in profile pages of forums/social sites/blogs you registered. And put it beside your contact information in email signature. This may not get lot of fans but very potential.
10. Remember to all your Mailing list
If you already have some mailing list of customers, it’s really a big chance to get more fan. Let tell them about your new Facebook page and why they should like your page, latest update instantly or something free? 🙂
