Facebook Like on URLs
-
I have a doubt regarding the facebook LIKES for URLs
Case 1: By using a Facebook Like Button (for URL) on my page(s). Here people are coming to my page and giving like directly on my page.
Case 2: Here i'm not using any Facebook Like plugins on page, But my page got shared on facebook pages and profiles. And people are giving likes on facebook.com for my shared links.
Is this two count as different methods? Explain me please.

One way to see the differences is to use a free tool like http://sharedcount.com/ it shows you Facebook likes, shares and comments which are all different items.
-
api.facebook.com/restserver.php?method=links.getStats&urls=http://www.domain.com
change www.domain.com to yours and you will see exactly the stats of your domain name.
The Like plugin with [button] #125 number usually includes likes+shares...
-
Facebook shares and facebook likes are different. As someone can share a post they see on a friends wall and it is not added to that page's like count.
If you want to check the like count for certain urls quickly, I prefer to use the excel plugin for SEO

Just do not try and do a few thousand urls as it will take a bit.

Tool like Followerwonk for Facebook?
Hi For Twitter using Followerwonk you can gauge the influence on what a person/brand is using a tool like Follwerwonk helping you find the most influential twitter users based on a number of metrics. But is there a similar tool for Facebook which shows which brands/companies Facebook sites have the most influence. Or is the best way to gauge this is just on their number of likes? which is not really accurate

I am wondering if there is a way to recapture the manager's position on Facebook Pages.
If this is a duplicate I apologize. Our employee had a client's business page tied to their personal page. This person is now a former employee and closed their personal page. That leaves us without full capacity on this client's Business page. Is there anything I can do? Or is the only way to reclaim manager status to start a new page?

Facebook Page not in Search
My Facebook page does not show up within the first 50 results of a search for my brand. I have over 3,000 fans and am relatively active so it should be there. On the second page of SERPs for my brand there is a Facebook page of a spammy looking affiliate with 15 fans. On the third page my Facebook test page appears. Any ideas about what happened with my page? Is it possible Google penalized my Facebook page - and if so, how do I fix that? I checked the admin again and the page is open to the public and when I do a search for "brand facebook" it appears. Thanks for your help!

ShopTab Facebook App - Duplicate Content Issue?
Hello I've been trialling an app for Facebook called Shoptab where you can add a shopfront to your Facebook page and then users can browse through the items and when they click buy or more info they are linked through to the main site. The app displays the product, title, description etc so I was wondering if we would run the risk of duplicate content issues by loading our inventory to this app? OR would Google see the hyperlink through to the original item and no damage done? It would be very easy to add our whole inventory to this app. Thanks

Facebook Admins
Hello, Can you give admin status to a user, that doesn't give them the ability to remove other admins. This would be editor or contributor in wordpress. The concern here is that an admin can delete the other admins. IF ATT gave admin to a disgruntled employee, they could lose a page for some time. Thanks
