Willing to Give Facebook Advice

Hello,

I own a lot of big Facebook fan pages related to the videogame niche and used to bank hard before I left Facebook marketing for good back in Feb 2014 due to newsfeed updates and reach being bogged down.

However, I've returned to Facebook marketing recently and have studied current trends and have got some good results. I'm willing to answer any questions that you might have using my 3 years of experience doing FB marketing.

I'll try my level best to give you straight useful answers but please don't anything too stupid like "give your page url" or 'I want to buy your page", etc.

I'm attaching an screenshot of my adsense earnings for the year 2013. Keep in mind, I was using adsense as a secondary network only and my main site had an premium network as its main one. I also used many other tactics to bank although most of them has become obsolete now due to the Facebook newsfeed updates designed to make users spend money to get reach however there are still ways if your page has not been spammed, etc.

Ask away and I'll answer!

Hi,

So what tactics do you use now then? Have you ever done SEO for your Facebook pages?

I'm only here to answer specific questions. I don't want to discuss what I do or don't do on my pages.

I did do SEO for Facebook pages back in 2013. You need to pick a popular keyword, mostly a yet to be released product or a celebrity and Twist the words such as "X Fan Club" or "Brand Fans" etc and grow the page using ads, etc. If you're smart enough, by the time the product or celebs gets bigger, your page will have a lot of fans. But then again, there's always a risk of the page getting deleted so you need to be smart about how you brand it.

Once your page is big enough, it's really wise to do "Share 4 Share' with other similar pages in your niche. It boosts your edgerank as well as gives you organic fans.

Where are you getting this information? These posts are frowned upon by Facebook.

I didn't mean you should share the direct link to the page. One should just share each other's images or videos. Facebook doesn't mind you doing that and it still improves your reach and also the number of fans.

Hey,

This is a serious question, how do you many to get facebook likes/exposure? I recently created a facebook page and i've been joining like4like groups to get started but I can't get any real viewers outside of that.

That will probably do more harm than good Andy. As always, content is king. The better your content is, the further the reach will go and the more people will see it. If you have crappy pages sharing your page, yeah you might pick up a few likes but they are going to be pretty ordinary likes.

Think about it, everyone in those groups are liking other pages so that people will like them back. They have no interest in engaging in your content and contributing to the growth of your page. They will be a stale fan which will hurt your reach.

I'm referring to your comment that sharing other page's content boosts your "edgerank" (a dead term), more so than sharing your own content.

Ya that makes sense, I wasn't planning on getting all my followers like that. I just wanted to have a small amount so it looks slightly appealing to other people. Right now its only sitting at 48 likes and I don't really know what to do. Do you have any tips on what I can do to grow? I don't mind it taking it a while but I feel like no one is even seeing my content right now which kinda makes it demotivating

What's the niche and what are your intentions for the page? Is this just a hobby or are you trying to build a business?

I have a few questions.

1. What is the best way to get targeted likes for newly created page?
2. Assuming you have a lot of experience with FB ads, how to avoid getting banned for no reason after spending too much?
3. Do you use any like-jacking script to increase the likes? If yes, how to avoid page getting disabled or maybe site's link get blacklisted?

hi i have celeb fan page with 800k
but im not getting 1000 to 3500 likes perpost)

800k likes and you dont get 1k likes per post? Sounds like fake likes.

FB doesn't remove all the fake likes. Did you buy any likes before? 800k likes on page and you didn't even get 1k likes on post sounds like a fake likes. Assuming if you have 800k real targeted likes on a page, that wouldn't be hard to get 1k-3k likes per post. Try post interesting photos or videos related to your niche instead of link to your site.

Would be interested in any advice to help out our nonprofit project.

Would you be willing to share or PM the name of the premium network you were using in conjunction with Adsense? For those of us that have banned Adsense accounts?

1. Ans - The best way to get targeted Likes for an Fan page is to share content from a verified popular page onto your page and boost that post. You can have your page link in the description so that people follow you. You can also try posting content directly onto your page and having your page link in the description and boosting it. Make sure you don't use terms like "Like my page" etc though.

2. There is nothing called being banned for no reason after spending too much. There's always a reason. Facebook doesn't want to lose money. They only ban you if you violate their terms of service. I can't really say what is right and wrong. If you have anything specific than maybe I can help you if that'll get you banned or not.

3. Like-jacking, etc doesn't work these days and is too risky. Facebook is always on the lookout for pages who uses them and if you do use them it won't be long before you wake up to your page being removed all of a sudden. Some people do manage to do it but it all boils down to risk and skills. I would personally not advice you to do it.

Are your fans real people or bots?

If they're real people. Share content from Popular pages and boost them for 1-3 dollars. Reach should increase over time. Also, follow that up with good solid organic content but don't overdo it. You can also boost organic content once the reach improves.

They have massive requirements. Unless you're getting 500k unique visitors and more than 1 million pageviews on your website and the domain is one year old and the site is really well made, it's pointless. If you meet all the above criteria. PM me.
