Is there a certain way I should go about this? I could not seem to find much on this subject. Any help will be valued. thanks -byount-
I bought a gig on fiverr.com yesterday. Gave 5 dollars to the guy who said he would invite his 3500 loyal friends to like my fanpage. In 24 hours he told me he's completed the gig. I went to my fanpage and found 31 likes. Is this the correct way to go?
First let me tell you, you will find lot of answers for this question, if you just scroll down the facebook thread on DP Obviously, since facebook has disabled the invite/suggest to friends, the fan page option, you have to earn those fan likes. the only way to increase your fans on your fan page is by doing some viral marketing for your fan page. Post some unique images and titles and share them in some other fan pages of your niche. Tag those pictures with some of your reputed friends on facebook. So each time you tag them, your image or the comment will display on their friend's homepage. And if the image is catchy you will get more likes Since the suggest my friends option has been disabled by facebook itself, I cannot digest these fiverr.com $5 gigs anymore. So better dont fall for it.
Having "Like" button will definitely help you expand your horizon and fan page. Try giving something free away or a contest is always good.
Oh really! I'm very new to facebook and obviously very disoriented. So hard to find a clue on how other successful facebookers attract their traffic.
Yes most of the fiverr.com sellers give you a proof of sending invites to thousands of their friends or fans for your fan page. But since the option has been disabled by facebook, how can anyone send such request. The maximum number of friends any facebook user can have is 5000 friends, then how much these sellers send around 20k or 30 k invites at once? So at the end it all comes to just some fake images done on photoshop. Many of the newbies who have started their fan pages do fall for this trap. Till the last month, all the other facebookers were attracting their traffic by requesting their fans to suggest or invite their friends to like the fan page. Now the only way to increase the fans is by doing some viral marketing.
Hey China_girl. I'd be most grateful if you could give an example of viral marketing done right because I thought I was doing "viral marketing" by using this $5 service. Do you provide any effective service? I'm interested.
