Hey all, I'm looking for the best ideas on how to engage Fans on a Facebook FanPage? What are the best tricks to get them to participate and invite their friends to join? I know that I can offer gift certificates and things like that, but I'm looking for ideas that don't involve putting up any money if possible Thanks
Well, I do not have any experience with maintaining a fanpage. However, you might think of giving fans something that non-fans don't have. Doesn't need to be material. Let's say access to information, pictures on that fan page, I do not know what you exactly do... but that's what I have for the moment.
Make your fan page more interesting by creating interesting discussion on your page which is also related to your business.
You could offer services or products from your website. I guess you'd have to pay something afterall... Try launching competitions - group ones lets say - that could drive people to invite others.
Holding contests is a great way to get fans and make them participate. I don't know if you could do it through the fanpage, may be try doing it on your website and publish that info on the fan page... hope it helps
