    I think this question have been asked before...

    You can make CPA lead on FB,
    or make an app, then advertise on it.
    another way is, you can make a store on it, and you have to manage it manually

    Hey Guys,

    I saw this post and thought to share.

    There is this really great product that I am using called Infinite FB. I am very new to the whole online/affiliate marketing world and signed up to receive Ian Fernando's 30-day eCourse. The information is amazing, different each day, and allows me to get a better understanding of how Facebook Ads work. I am ALWAYS clicking on them when I'm on Facebook--so I thought, "Why not develop my own advertisements for people that need the exposure?" The information I have learned is invaluable and each day I am waiting in anticipation for the next lesson. There's also a money back guarantee if you don't like the product but thus far, I am very happy with it.

    Make a "fan page" on Facebook and solicit target market to qualified fans. Don't just ask everyone to become a fan - that does no good because then anybody will join. You want your fans to be real fans!

    On FB. Create a fan page. Also create a personal account, start writing nice things, start adding friends. When adding, make it a bit personal by sending a message along with the request. Max out your personal account (you can add 5k friends). Post your affiliate offers on your wall, but make them attractive. Invite your friends to your fan page. All others adding you as friends, direct them to your fan page. Make it a great fan page, post usefull stuff.

    On twitter. Make yourself a great bio and cloak your link. Follow people, if your tweets are good they'll follow you back. Post free offers within your tweets but don't overdue it.

    Some people think Twitter is a great tool, while others think Twitter is a waste of time as it won't give you major traffic or sales....

    I personally have not tested Twitter...but I would like to .....So far I am getting mixed advices...

    Twitter is good if you get a following and post 10+ useful tweets a day to stay on people's radar.

    You can make money through twitter by recommending quality products to your followers or other members but you need to build your credibility first. In facebook, you can also do the same but there are still lots of useful features that facebook has, like advertising and facebook fan page.

    As a facebook fanatic I must say that is what I will use over twitter. Hands Down! Face book seems to offer so much more that twitter in a side by side comparison. Not to mention it's popularity. My two cents... Facebook is becoming increasingly embedded in Internet users' everyday lives and, as one respondent to Abrams Research's survey of social media leaders put it, "[Facebook is] better than my godforsaken landline, which I pay for every month and wonder why".

    Stay out of trouble by reading the Facebook rules regarding business accounts. Obtain a Facebook vanity URL so that people can find you easily. Use Facebook Connect to add social networking features to your web site. Use search to find groups and fan pages related to your business by industry, location and career.

    Make sure you take advantage of re-tweeting. Twitter is very viral and your business info should spread fast. Ask your friends to re-tweet for you.

    Notoriously bad for conversions on twitter and facebook. You dont see many Internet markets pushing affiliate links anymore.

    The simplest and most effective way to have an impact with these social networks, is to make them an extension of your actual business. Get a custom background for both Twitter and Facebook that utilize your business colors, logo, and contact information. Then, you need to make friends and actively interact. Post updates, comment on others' pages, Tweet about store deals and sales, or run a Facebook contest. The key is to be socially active. You wouldn't go to a business after hours event or networking event and stand in the corner and not speak to anyone. When you sign up for Facebook or Twitter and create a business account, it's the same thing. Find people from your niche or geographical region and build reputation by communicating with them.

    You can actually get an unbelievable amount of business from FB and Twitter, but not in the way that you think. The company I work for, Dukky, is a marketing company that deals with direct mail and email. One of the thing that separates us from others is that we input integrated social sharing software into all our campaigns.

    What this does, is when the initial campaign reaches a customer (in the mail or email), and they decided they like it and want to redeem the offer, they get taken through a quick and easy activation process. The last step of the process gives the customer the opportunity to share the offer on over 280 social networks (But FB and Twitter are obviously the most used).

    We've had amazing success with it, and instead of you personally having to go out and try and get people to buy your product on these social networks, those people's friends do it instead. The really interesting thing is whether Twitter or FB will draw in more customers, we've had campaigns where FB had dominated and ones where Twitter has generated the most incoming customers. Same thing for sharing the offer.
