Tracking FB views
-
This is somewhat off-topic, but this seems like a good place to ask.
Has anyone used a script/code/3rd party service that allows you to track who has viewed your profile?
-
Such a script/app is against the facebook terms of service. At https://www.facebook.com/help/210896588933875/ FB states:
Can I know who’s looking at my timeline or how often it’s being viewed?
No, Facebook doesn't let you track who views your timeline or your posts (ex: your photos). Third party apps also can't provide this functionality.
If you come across an app that claims to offer this ability, please report the app.

I am talking about a personal Facebook page. Is there a way to know who has viewed your profile? Any analytics available for persona FB pages?
I know FB does not allow Javascript or GA tracking, but I have read there are ways around it.
Thanks for the help.

PS if you are asking about SEOmoz You didn't specify so I don't believe that is something that they will allow however you are welcome to ask the staff e-mail you the analytics reports on your profile. I doubt don't share that but they might. Once not under view a week or month again you can make any link trackable so where it's accessed matters
your affiliate code would be something that gives your information
-
you can of course mix that with http://sendible.com/ to make a great platform.
If you're asking if you can tell if somebody has looked at your twitter profile I don't believe so that's proprietary to twitter. If you are asking about Facebook no I'm going to say again I don't believe so unless they click a link or do something else or you make the link trackable to access it which you can do with the 1st software I gave you.
You will also not be happy with Google plus as they will not tell you in addition I believe only LinkedIn is the one that spills beans.
However if you have awe.sm link for your twitter profile on your site you will know exactly how many times it's been pushed.
Hope I have helped,
Tom

Absolutely my favorite social media tracking tool and the best as far as making domains that are Twitter friendly shareable and your own.
http://Totally.awe.sm is the website if you want to purchase a domain that is 3 or 4 letters and matches your brand I would suggest domainr.com as it will find the domain you're looking for.

Namecheap is currently having a sale on .PW I saw this 3 days ago so please don't hold me accountable if it's not still for sale however it was only $3 a domain. Regardless SEOMoz pro perks allows us to purchase domains for $5 from name cheap you can find that at the bottom of the page.
Totally.awe.sm integrates with kiss metrics, mix panel, and of course Google analytics you will see all know all and be like Yoda to on twitter.
I hope I have been of help,
Thomas

Why does someone's FB page rank so highly?
Hi Everyone, i recently ran a non-personalized search and saw that this facebook page https://www.facebook.com/tampapersonalinjurylawyers ranked very highly for both "personal injury attorney" and "tampa personal injury attorney." The page has very few likes, and they don't even post that often. From my limited knowledge, that leaves me guessing it's because its a quasi-exact match facebook page, but that can't be right...can it? (Ranking screenshot is attached) Thanks, Ruben GO4N11x

FB Sharing Contest Tracking Question?
We are going to give-a-way a PS4 through a social media contest. Likes, g+ circles and shares, but I wasn't sure if there was a problem tracking shares. I always thought I could just look at my FB posts and it would say how many shares. All I want to do is people to give someone an extra entry for sharing one of my post on his or her FB page. However, I've read that tracking shares can be difficult. I think the shares that are difficult to track are the ones beyond what I need, like if a 3rd party shared it or something, but I'm not sure. I want the contest to be as accurate as possible. Can anybody confirm or correct my thinking, please? Happy Thanksgiving Eve! Ruben

How do I track my Facebook page rank?
Hey guys, Probably a newbie question, but I'm wondering if there's a way to track Facebook (or other offsite profiles that I own) pagerank along with my domain? I'm working on a project right now where I noticed we're not on the front page for our search term, but our Facebook page is. It would just be helpful to have that info for a more complete SEO picture. Thanks!

Can you have FB Comments post to a business page?
I am looking into incorporating Facebook Comments into my site. When commenting it gives the option to the commentor to post it on their FB wall. Can it be setup to post everyone's comments on my site on our FB business page? I tried to use the commenting tools while logged in as a page, but it said I had to be logged in as a person. If not, how do I get notified someone has commented on my website through FB Comments so I can reply?
