Facebook business page
-
Hello Can you help me. I'm starting out in SEO and sometimes I think I miss the Elephant in the room. I have tried and tried to find our via 'Google' or 'Seomoz' articles the answer to this question. How does 'Google Panda' link a facebook business page to it's actual business website if the url is not identical eg 'www.setteeherts.co.uk' 2 'www.facebook.com/settee-herts'? As no one is talking about this I'm assuming I am missing the elephant. If you can see it can you point it out gently? ta!

Thanks James

Thank you Gianluca - I did suspect that these entities would be enjoined by their relationships via reciprocal links. You are quite right I didn't word my query at all well, & I'm very impressed you managed to answer my question as well as reword my question. You should do training!
Thanks again

I think google will take the first content which was indexed i.e if the website was indexed first then it will have prority in the ranks.
If the Facebook pages was second it will rank lower, yet you can use SMO tactics to rank both pages within Google SERPS to drive traffic to both destinations.

Mmm... I think it is me now "missing the Elephant" right now?
Are you asking how Google link an FB Page to the corporate website of the same business?
Well, Google is not linking them, it sees as two different things, as really they are. What it does is identify the entity behind both web presence (the Business) because of signs as the presence of the link to FB Page in the site of the business and viceversa (the link to the corporate site in the FB Page). Or, when the Google+ profiles will be available also for businesses, with the presence in those profiles of the links to both the corporate site and the FB Page.
I hope I was able to help... and especially I hope to have understood your question... even though I still wonder what the Panda Update should have to have an influence here

Merging Facebook Pages - Getting Support from Facebook
Does anyone know how to get in touch with Facebook regarding issues with Facebook Pages and Merging Pages - I have posted on the Facebook Community Help Pages but no one from Facebook Support seems to read them or get in touch. Anyone got any ideas of how to get help from Facebook? Our original question on Facebook Community Help Pages was this but the question just got "merged" with another question where people were complaining about the same sort of problem with no one (out of 5 people on the thread) having come up with a solution of having heard from Facebook Support. We need to merge two company pages - The category and the address of the company of the page is the same on both pages - one page has a custom url - one does not. Both have the same first two words (i.e. the company name) as the page title. I do not want to list the pages publicly. Is there a way a member of facebook support can message us privately to discuss this please.

How to regain Facebook Page Authority - For page badly affected with spam users
Case- company Facebook page has more than 10K users and almost 50% are spam. When this happens, edge rank of the page is badly affected (because spam users are not interested in your shared content so they hide you/remove you from feed and of course never engage). Not to mention Facebook released an update end of 2014 where page will have less visibility anyway compared to user updates. Overall the Page updates get very less exposure / impressions Now only solution is to remove this huge no of spam users one by one or by an API. Question - Does removing the spam users regain the authority of the page ? Does that solve the overall issue ? What are the other solution to fix the situation ? Thanks.

How do I control the thumbnail image for a link on a Facebook post?
Hi, All! I've spent about an hour working on this with no success, so I thought I would ask the community: How do you tell Facebook which image to put in for the thumbnail on a link you're posting? And I would like it to be a different image for each post, and I don't want to have to deal with programming PHP (the main solutions I saw). I'm on a Wordpress based site, and I've tried putting images in as the featured image, made sure they weren't huge (under 200x200), made sure they were .jpeg... and the only thing that Facebook offers me as a thumbnail is a generic "green globe" image that I don't believe comes from my site at all. Any ideas? Thanks in advance!
