Using facebook page to promote site.

i have a facebook page for my website but I havn't a clue the best way to utalise it to enhance my site.

Ideas please.

I take it you have tried it then?
Do you have one for Triphp?

I think we need to have good number of fans to help promoting websites on FB. otherwise they're useless

maybe if you are in the field of show business or in arts, modeling, games, cartoon, sports and other sort of informative site you can get benefit from Facebook otherwise you will not notice in the world because people at Social networking site are mostly joining there for socialization only and not in serious matters at all.

Good point, thanks for that.

I created a facebook page for my latest website which is in the webmaster niche and in all honesty i wasn't sure how to promote it, an i'm still not! Although I did create a facebook page for an old teen business forum I had and managed to get 200 members by doing very little work?!

I kind of get the feeling that facebook pages are over used and often associated with spam! Maybe thats just me but when I get an invite to a page etc I usually ignore it!

What I did with Facebook is I created a fan page to get testimonies and group page so people can discuss their ideas.

If you want to grab more fans look around for groups/pages with similar topic, including competitive ones, and drop a promo once in a while there; even better do some "free stuff" linkbait all over the place and don't worry, be happy.

yes facebook is the best traffic gaining source and we get dofollow backlink.

any other useful ideas to promote site using facebook page? pls .. some other useful replies needed..

Hi, a newbie in SEO. I agree with tdaley. Although I'm a newbie, I used facebook for my social accounts like friends and relatives. And I noticed that a lot of people in facebook became a fan to something or someone that gets their interest and attention. So. if your site is all about social games, products etc. facebook is one of the best way to promote it.

Try to get more facebook user to page and post link and information about website on facebook page - its quite helpful to get more and more users . . .

There are a lot of Facebook Pages related to the web and web design. Use the "Suggest to Friends" function to suggest the FB page to your friends. I got my traffic from Facebook thru these pages. I usually suggest an FB page to 35-40 of my friends.

There are many ways in Facebook how to generate the traffic to the website. Facebook is not only to promote the website, you can also feed your blog site to the blog entry of Facebook. You can create a fan page of web site if you have few friends in Facebook. Just use Facebook wisely to generate the traffic.

Oh, did you get the traffic that you needed and is there are lot people who join in the discussion? Testimonials and group discussion somehow can help but if you can't create a good starting topic to talk about with your niche they will never get interested to participate and even not get interested to read the starting post.

True, because they join social networking site like Facebook as a way to connect with their friends and relative which they are not often seen. And sometimes, social networking site such like that offers a good application of games that people find more enjoyable to spend their free time.
