What Facebook Content to Post
-
Hi,
Our website is

facebook page:
http://www.facebook.com/pages/The-NLP-Coaching-Institute-of-California/187804434598142
They recently added facebook. I told them for posting on the wall to do the following:
-
Identify your target audience, possible people to like us
-
Identify what they really really are searching for on Facebook and the web, and give it to them.
How could we improve on this strategy.
At first my boss wanted to post article sinippits and links to the articles, but I told him to create facebook content with the above (1) and (2) strategy
Your thoughts?

Never assume that you understand you audience.
You don't.
Learn from your audience.
Observe what they engage. Make note of it.
Observe what they ignore. Make note of it.
Give them more of what they want and less of what they don't... but don't bore them with repetition.
Never assume that you understand what they want... because they will want different things over time and as your audience changes.
Finally... It is possible that only a small group of your audience is your real target population. They are the important ones. Don't let single voices steer you - unless they are voices that you must heed or voices that give great advice.

Remeber you have to convert to sales, it is no use getting too far way from your end goal just to get exposure if you cannot convert it back to sales.
I am not a big believe in social media, i assume in certain industries it would be good, but in many industries iit just not what facebook users are looking for.

The suggestions you made are a good start, however why not something that involves humor in that field like a short comic strip. PICTURES have to have pictures of the people who work their, when they are working, when they are out and about. Pictures are critical for social media it tells the followers that the company is real and the people exist. Good luck on your quest good sir!

Facebook Likes
Hi, Our Facebook account has 94,382 likes but Moz said that we have a total of 520 likes on Facebook. Could you let me know why Moz is not displaying all of them? Many thanks Antonio

Add Tracking Parameters to Website Links on Facebook/Twitter
does anyone know of a way to add tracking parameters to facebook/twitter website links in the about us section so that we can understand what traffic is specifically coming from that page? I already add tracking to posts, but I am more trying to track each standard link on these social channels. I am currently running into character limits or the result looks like a long url that will most certainly deter clicks because it looks suspicious.

Facebook Virality Metrics Compared To Open Rates
I'm trying to put Facebook's Virality Metrics in a framework I understand better. In email marketing, if you consistently get 25% to 30% open rates on newsletters, you're doing solid in most industries. What would you all say the equivalent for that is in Facebook Virality? Thanks, Ruben P.S. If it's drastically higher than 4% - 6%, I'm going to be very sad.

How to change Facebook username and pagename for a large company?
Greetings, I've been tasked with investigating how to change our Facebook pagename and username. Problem is we have a huge number of followers - over 1,000,000. From my research it appears you have to submit a change request to FB and hope they accept it as you can only make these changes once. In addition, the change appears to be more challenging if you have more than 200 likes. And there is no guarantee that FB will accommodate your change request. I have been unable to contact a human being at FB. SEOMoz Staff 😉 - May I ask how you effectively changed your page name and username? What was your process? Kind regards, Eric Darby

Does buying thousands of Facebook Fans/Likes affect SEO?
To begin with, please pardon me if this question is ignorant. I'm completely new to this whole social media thing, and somewhat feel it is overhyped. I find it really difficult to believe that social media will actually help the majority of small business owners out there like me, and that most of them are probably being misled about the powers of social media to increase sales. Because it's mentioned so frequently, I've decided to delve into it a bit more to see how this could possibly help me business. Over the past few weeks, I've become familiar with a company that sells Facebook Likes, Twitter followers, as well as YouTube and SoundCloud plays. Since my official Twitter and FaceBook accounts really didn't have that many followers, I decided to buy a few thousand followers for each account. Initially, I bought them because I wondered what would happen if a customer that visited my online store happened to go to those Twitter and Facebook pages. If I personally see a Facebook page with few followers, I probably wouldn't give them my business. I would want to go with a company that seems to generate a bunch of traffic to their pages. Originally, I only had about 200 Facebook followers (now called Likes, it seems) and maybe 25 Twitter followers. I now have over 12,000 Twitter followers and 2,000 Facebook Likes. I may end up buying more since the service was pretty quick and affordable. I'd like to know if Google factors Likes and followers into it's formula for creating SERPS. Will my website rank higher if I have 10,000 likes, rather than only 200? If so, would it be a notable increase? FWIW, I found that more people organically started following my Facebook and Twitter accounts once I had more followers. I didn't change anything about how I maintained the page; I just had more people following them. One other thing of note: these companies are almost certainly using fake/hacked accounts to like various pages around Facebook/Twitter. You can tell because my Facebook page says some city in Croatia has the most amount of 'likes' of my page. Do you think this might come into play at all? Thanks for any and all help!

Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, etc. Is there value in a presence on them?
I have a client (professional practice) whose father is a marketing professor. He is pushing the client that he should have a professional page on social sites. While I believe having FB likes, shares, Tweet links, +1, etc. on the page, I really am ambivalent about building pages specifically for social media sites.
