    Facebook has a lot of users and have a lot unique visitors thus it is the right place to market a product and one of the best method is by having a fanpage about your product and services.

    When its about marketing, Facebook is a social place where people share things they find funny, interesting or useful with their friends. Think about what kind of content your fans would actually want to share when planning your posts.

    You can use facebook to create a fan page related to your product to gain some traffic to your blog/site. You can choose to pay for advertising as well, but lately Facebook ads got little tight.

    Create a facebook page about your company (business) and post info about your business with a link to your website regularly.

    Better is you create an Twitter Account. Drive much more traffic to your site than facebook.

    Facebook in my opinion is the best for doing traffic and promoting your product. More active people more popular. You can do a facebook fan page which is what i'm going to do on my Forum Next. You can also do ads which my friends have said works great on there sites and much better price then ppc.

    Facebook and Twitter have tons of visitors. Now a days webmasters are using this social networking sites for getting huge traffic to their sites. You can make page related to your web site in those sites. Then attract people to those pages by making friends and participating in various discussions there. There have many other options for being active there and making strong and powerful network.

    When you log in your Facebook account you should see an option to create a page.

    I think Facebook is a more viable option than Twitter, as their platform is more intimate and you're not limited to what you can type.

    Facebook has a lot of unique visitors and guests then it is the best place to place your advertisement, try to have a fan page first and then promote your product and services first.

    It's a bit tricky to market your website in Facebook. First you have to create a fan page of your website, then invite the people on your friend list to like it, so that any message you post can be seen on their walls.

    The market you can tap in Facebook is huge, the difficult part is generating interest in your product/website.

    n the last couple of years, Facebook has gone from a college photo-sharing site to a burgeoning business- networking platform for self-promotion, advertising and multimedia interaction. With new apps and add-ons, Facebook users can send each other a virtual drink, create and host events, advertise their businesses through social ads, and more.

    You can just add about anyone you want Greg. You can even use add robots like Facebook Adder. Just don't go over the 30 requests per day. I'm currently banned again, for one month now.
