How can I get mainly U.S. Friends?

[jodyberry]

No matter how hard I try to create new accounts with U.S. friends (in my niche), I can never get it past about 50% or 60% U.S. There always seem to be friends from other countries that do me no good for my marketing.

Is there some tip to finding U.S. friends in a particular niche, or am I ALWAYS going to get foreign friends too?



Thanks all...

You tried to scrape out ids from u.s groups/pages?
Example "university" "cities" etc etc? from the U.S.. Use your brain man

What brain??????

Good idea, but they won't necessarily be targeted towards my niche.

Yes, I can get 10,000 UCLA college students, but how many would like my particular niche - probably a small percentage.

So, would I rather scrape a page that is my actual niche and get 50% targeted friends from the U.S., or scrape a US university and HOPE that 50% are in my niche (probably unlikely).

Don't you think, you want to much, dude?

I thought the same, your asking for quite alot.

On the other hand, if you created a random fun page with an ipod offer or something neutral and wanted US traffic for your offers (i.e US pays more etc.) then the university idea would be spot on

You can never have TOO much!!

Hire me to make the accounts for you and focus on other things!

And yes, I'm being serious...

I believe you can make your profile only viewable to US so even if you send an invite to a non us they dont get it

 

[HowardOnline]

to attract mainly US users..hint: you need to think small

If you created a funpage with an ipod offer and wanted US traffic then you tried to scrape out ids from US group/pages.
