Help with Brands Facebook page
-
Hi Guys
I desperately need help on this one.......I have taken over the management of a Brand's facebook page and have some concerns as to how it was setup. The account was opened by an individual that has a personal account but they did not open the brands page from their personal account...instead they used a slightly different email address and opened a new page business account. I am not able to comment on any comments on this account and i am assuming it was as a result that there is no "profile" (not sure).
Should i go ahead and create the profile with the details of someone at the brand? or how should i proceed to rectify this......am i not able to comment as a result of not having a profile??
help!
UpDate: The comment issue has been resolved and it seemed to be browser / firewall related...never happened before...very strange

If it is a Fan page, and you have a FB account, you will be able to just add yourself as an admin. There shouldn't be a separate login.

I would request that they create a special email address for you, such as nomad(at)site(dot)com and use that for the facebook business admin.
As mentioned above, fan pages have a lot more useful tools. You can see some cool examples at facebook.com/redbull and facebook.com/cocacola

thanks Steven..it is a business page so only "likes" no "friends". I want to change the email access away from the original person who opened the account and use one of the senior members at the brand as the contact. this person has an existing facebook personal account so i am concerned if i can use their email on the business page (in fear of the two account violation)..or should i have the brand create a email specifically for the facebook acount...to play it safe.....i am a little confused with what emails i can and cannot be used if they are linked to existing personal accounts..with regards to only having one account.
appreciate your help on this matter as the more terms i read the more confused i am.

Is it a Fan page? I have had this problem already, here is how you know the difference:
With fan pages you can have multiple admins.You would log in to Facebook as yourself and then go and admin it.
If it was done as a personal page, where you have to login to that account, you might have a problem on your hand as there is no administration on something like that.
In my opinion:
If it was done as a personal page I would start by creating a Fan page and then just posting on the current one for everyone to go and 'Like' the new one because the current one will be shutting down. It will take a few weeks for everyone to move over and you may loose a few who don't log in to FB anymore.
There are advantages to doing it as a Fan page including:
- Applications
- Administration
- Metrics
- User Control
- Wall Control

Does Facebook Messages count as a social signal factor?
Hi, We know that social signals are usually referred to as a webpage's collective likes, comments or shares. But what about the Facebook messages generated from the messenger plugin on a web page? Especially on a business page, if one business page receives hundreds of Facebook messages through a landing page or blog page, does that count as social shares? And how effective is social signals are for a website in 2020? Although social engagement is always good for any website, my question is, how logical is it to purchase "social signal gigs" from konker or Fiverr or other gig markets? We run a social media marketing company in Australia, our website: https://www.playchat.com.au and we get a lot of messages every day through the messenger add on from our home page. Will that make any difference whatsoever? Looking forward to hearing from you. I appreciate any help you can provide.

Facebook Spam - Suggestions?
We put a blog post up on our Facebook page earlier today. Within an hour, there were 560 likes and over 4,000 comments. While that sounds great, that is nowhere in the universe of normal. Almost all of that was spam (there were no services that we engaged in to bring likes/comments). So, has anyone else here been hit by rapid-fire Facebook spam? Any thoughts on what to do - leave it alone, delete the post, filters, etc.? Would love the advice of the Moz community. Thanks guys!

Removing Facebook Pages Without Admin Access
A few years ago someone started a Facebook page for my company. It has about 15 fans and is not active, however it is ranking in Google because of it's age. I want to delete the page (so that the real official Facebook page will rank instead). However, I do not have access to the original admin account and Facebook is not responding to my removal requests. Any suggestions for what I should do? Thanks!

On the new Google+ Local pages, I was wondering if anyone knew how to add the "Follow" button to lead to the company Google+ profile.
I saw a video on an Internet marketing blog that showed a company's Google+ Local page with a "Follow" button on it so people could follow their company Google+ profile.

Whats the SEO value of getting Likes to your brand's Facebook Page (not your site's URLs being Liked)?
UPDATED: I meant to say SEO VALUE, not just business value Lets say I have a site - www.company.com, and I set up a Facebook Page - www.facebook.com/company. I understand the SEO value of having the domain www.company.com "Liked", using the FB Like button on my homepage lets say, or the same goes for individual pages - www.company.com/page. My question is rather about having my Facebook Page - Facebook.com/company "Liked". Are those likes counted by the engines as a strong signal that www.company.com should rank well? Or only that the Facebook Page - Facebook.com/company should rank well in searches for that company?
