I am so glad you posted this, George36Studio. I am in a similar situation. I work for a company that has about 600 Likes. We have been trying to increase Likes (and impressions) for about 6 months, but only went from 500 to 600 Likes. My company does not want to buy Likes (and does not have budget for advertising). We post about 4 times per week, and most of the time it is educational content for our industry (how-to blog posts, videos, upcoming webinars, etc.) I am quite seasoned on LinkedIn and Twitter, and some pay-per-click advertising, but I am really a Facebook newbie. I am wondering:
(1) A couple of you above mentioned posting on "similar industry pages." Is that because (a) people on those pages will reciprocate or (b) Facebook's algorithm will view us as important and active in the industry?
(2) Johith, what do you mean by "quoted posts gain higher number of likes"?
(3) Smartboyhere, what do you mean by "Like the page from your page (not user) related to your page, FB will suggest your page when they like those pages..."?
(4) When posting to groups, can I post as my Business Page, or does it have to be me personally?
(5) Does anyone know of any other good black hat tricks, besides buying likes? For example, someone mentioned hashtags. I noticed that some of our posts that use hashtags and/or popular words (ex. MLB opening day, mentioning a celebrity, etc.) gives us more impressions. (We are a tech company, so our posts are not usually mainstream. lol)
Like I said, I am a Facebook newbie and could really use some black-hat advice.
Thanks!
