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.

Good Morning!
I feel like it might be important to discuss how you acquired so many "spam" fans in the first place. I assume these fans were not generated naturally? If so, you could prevent this in the future by being more selective in your ad targeting.
While the removal process will undoubtedly be slow and might not have a direct impact on the "authority" of your page, it will help increase your organic reach. When you have a high number of disengaged ("fake") fans that do not interact with any of your posts, your organic reach will suffer greatly. However, by cleaning up your fan base and reaching more fans who are actually interested with that you have to say, engagement as a percentage will increase - sending positive signals to Facebook - and your reach will increase because of this. It is always better to have a smaller number of legitimate fans that a high number of disengaged fans just for the sake of having x amount of followers. Happy fans = happy Facebook.
Hope this helps!

How to see all our ads' relevance scores in Facebook reporting all at once?
Hello, We run Facebook ads for 30+ companies each month. We have not found a way to quickly monitor relevance scores from all our clients in one reporting format. Right now, we're still going into the ad account for each client, then into each ad to check the relevance scores, either in Ads Manager or Power Editor. Is there a way we can pull up relevance scores from all ads across clients in one fell swoop using Business Manager reporting features?

Google + Business Page Custom url -too-spammy-long-url?
Hi to all, Ok so I was offered a custom url from Google Plus, greatly appreciated. Yet do you go ahead and add keywords when prompted? I mean if its your business page, and Google says you MUST add some sort of number or letter behind your custom url, do you add some keywords? Like ford for example sake. Would it be smart to put google.com/+ford-mustag-f350 So you add a couple of hyphens, and a few keywords? I understand the principle of shorter is better. But if your url is already like 15 characters, does a few more hurt? Or is it useless? Another example: Your Google page is tv repair man. Your Google offered url is google.com/+Tvrepairman But again it says you must add a number or letter etc. So do you add like your location? so tvrepairman-colorado or maybe no hyphen? Or go farther and go with tvrepairman-colorado-springs-co My point is, I am lost. It seems like for now its a one and done. You mess it up, your stuck with it for a while, and I cannot find any ideas online on how to work this. Maybe because its common sense, but just looking for some friendly and honest advice. Chris

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?

Sending a global facebook message
Hi, This is really a social media question, hoping you can help. We have 2 facebook sites that we are going to delete. One is a group and one is a page. Here they are: http://www.facebook.com/pages/NLP-Institute-of-California/101752159860852?ref=ts and http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=90698249783 How do we send a message to all people in both groups all at once letting them know of our new facebook page that we're making? We're also concerned that people will get 2 emails that are subscribed to both sites to be deleted.. Thanks!
