Want more visibility & results from your Facebook Business page? Here are 10 tips that will increase your success.
2.) Include Photos – posts with photos get more edgerank than those without. Mix it up, use the questions app, go for 160 characters or less in your posts
3.) Posting via 3rd party apps – your edgerank goes down when posting via a 3rd party app such as Tweedeck, Hoostsuite or others. We all need to save time but be sure some of your updates are manually posted.
4.) Change Cover Images Regulary – mix it up, give your audience some visuals of your business, make it fun. Remember no contact info in the cover image.
5.) Pin To The Top – use this new feature to hold your status update to the top of your newsfeed if you have something you want people to be sure and see. It will automatically stay at the top for 7 days once pinned. You can always rotate your content top the top and again mix it up!
6.) Optimize your Thumbnails – with the new timeline you have thumbnails under you cover image, you can use these applications to re-direct to another page. Very cool way to offer your visitors more ways to connect with you. One can be a subscriber button to your newsletter, once could be a free offer, once could be a link to a website. Be creative!
7.) Monitor your insights – if you don’t have someone managing your social media chances are you are not even looking at your insights which are free to every page owner on your admin page. shockingly a 2% engagement rate is average (take the # of people talking about your page divided by your likes and this will give you are engagement rate)
