I was wondering if there are any tips to help a FB page rank well for a given search term?
Any help welcome!

To further enhance how a crawler sees it, or any webpage, you can turn off CSS and browse as Googlebot.
Use the default user agent plug in for Firefox
Use the web developer plug in to turn off CSS
Also, shutting off JavaScript is good too.

Hi Ryan,
Thanks for the quick response. IS it possible to add GA code to the page somewhere?
Thanks.

I'll share two ideas and hope others can add to them.
1. Treat the page like any other web page. A search engine crawler will.
2. Log out of facebook and view the page. Ensure the page is accessible while not logged in to facebook, and all the content is visible. The way you see the page while logged out is how the crawler would see it.

Google Plus Company Page Verification
Hi How do you test successful G+ company page/publisher integration/verification if using the less technical methods such as linking between the Home page and the G+ company page instead of adding code to the head section? Since i take it the google structured data testing tool cant work in these cases since no code on the head section ! Is it best to add the code anyway ? I note my clients still not achieving a knowledge graph card/section in the search results for a branded search but i have heard that doesnt come until you have at least hundreds of followers and/or G+ interactions. All Best

Why can't anyone check in on my Facebook Page?
Once upon a time, we were able to check in at our office on Facebook. Then, one day, we just...couldn't. I didn't (at least intentionally) change any settings on the page. I can't seem to even find a setting for this. What happened, and how do I fix it? Thank you so much in advance. (Edited to include the Facebook URL) https://www.facebook.com/LegacyTravel

Facebook Contest: Fan or Not?
Let's say that I manage a Page for a company, and I run a contest through a "Promoted Post". Does every single Like to that "Promoted post" will be counted as new fan? My objective is to increase the fans number of the page, which is your best practice to achieve that through a Facebook contest? Many thanks.

Tools for Automating Facebook Posts?
Hey Mozzers, We're revamping our social media campaign, and I'm looking for a tool that will allow me to schedules social media posts (Facebook specifically) in advance, so I'll only have to knock them out once a week. A cursory Google search has provided me with some options (HootSuite, etc) but I'd love to hear from people who actually use these services. What's your social media automation tool of choice, and how has it worked out for you? Thanks!
