Hi

I've been reading lately from some page admins that Facebook changed its rules now, and any status you post on your page will only be seen by 12% of you fans... and if you need more people to see it, you will have to pay $5 or $10

Is this true? Where on facebook does it say that only 12% of your audience will see your status?

thanx

What are you talking about?
You do it wrong then.

Ok, I won't play a the d!ck. Here's how I do it:

- Send messages to groups with +50k likes. Send A LOT of messages. Even involve nephews, your little brother, hire a VA or whatever.
- Hope that it's a kid who's the owner of the group
- Offer him a PS3, or some money

- Profit very good, day in day out.

Well...It is a good feature if you want to reach all your fans. Let's say you post on your page daily,sometimes the reach is only 5% and sometimes it's 10%. By using the promote option you have the choice of selecting the % of fans you want to reach. Can be effective if used well.

And all those who say fb marketing has died LOL. Lack of opportunity for you doesn't mean it's all over.
