IFrame facebook fanbox and tweet blocks
-
I am looking for a Facebook fanbox display, and a recent tweets display which looks nice and uses an iframe. The reason I desire an iframe is to eliminate these otherwise followed links which I do not necessarily endorse.
When you use a facebook fanbox, if 12 users are displayed then you have an extra 12 links added to your page.
When you use a recent tweet display then each tweet, depending on your configuration, can offer many links. The tweeter's avatar is a link along with the sender's name and any links added to the message.

Thank you David and Gary. I have used the official one in the past from that exact page. Somehow I missed the iframe option.
Any ideas for twitter?

Yeah better just using the official ones to be honest. Always work well for me.
I one time had to use the other coded version for the Facebook fan box as the iframe would not display.

Just use the official Facebook fanbox widget creator. It gives you two options for code, one of which is an iframe;

Hope that helps?

Facebook Blocking Site
This is been a big annoyance for me. My site was on wordpress before and was infected with malware at one point. We were blocked by major AV, Google, and etc but we got the infection cleaned up quickly and got unblocked. Problem now is that Facebook, we are still blocked on. We try to post a link and says we are harmful. We got unblocked from facebook and we posted but than they blocked us again. We have submitted multiple requests on that form but got no answer. As a marketing agency, having our facebook page blocked to our site is bad. What can we do in this situation? We have no direct contact with anyone at facebook nor do they reply to our requests. I do own a .net to my domain, should we start using that instead of .com or what? We really need to find a way out of this. It is hurting our reputation.

Facebook Apps
Just discovered this site http://northsocial.com/examples/ They charge a few dollars a day to use their Facebook apps. However, I am thinking it will be pretty simple to develop apps like these ourselves. Also, once the app is created we can use it for all of our social media accounts. Wanted to get some opinions on the matter. My questions are: 1. Do apps help generate more likes? 2. Can Apps be promoted? 3. Is it challenging to create a Facebook app? 4. Are Facebook apps worth investment of time?

Running a contest to increase Facebook Likes
I recently read about a well known company giving away a large prize and offering anyone a chance to win by Liking their Facebook Page. Has there been any statements provided by Google on how they view the attempt to increase Facebook Likes through contests. Or if they have not revealed anything, what do you think Google's approach would be based on their history?

Facebook - one page or two for local insurance agency with 2 locations?
We have 2 offices within 20 miles of each other, and we are getting ready to launch a facebook page (or pages)... I'm not sure whether we should put up one page or two. One office is our 'corporate office', and the other a 'satellite' office, both are very much open for business, but there will never be a need to post something on one and not the other...the two locations are just too close for there to be a need for that. If something is relevant to one town, it is relevant to the other. I am really leaning toward one page for both offices for many reasons, but it seems like facebook wants me to have 2 pages (ie. I can't put in more than one address). Any help is much appreciated! Thank you!

Do you build tools meant to be shared on Facebook?
I have some neat ideas for calculators and fun tools that I'll implement on one of my sites from time to time. I'm not convinced that I am getting the most SEO value out of them however, and would love to discuss what others do. Let's say I create a calculator that let's someone "cartoon themselves" (fictitious example). So, I'd create the tool and then I would put a button in a prominent place on the page to encourage people to share to FB. I configure my page so that the title and meta description are enticing for others who would see the story in their friend's news feed, so something like: I just cartooned myself on example.com! Upload a photo and see what you look like as a cartoon! You won't believe the results! So, this gets me some traffic, but nothing has gone super viral yet. I have a few pages like this that have garnered a few links, but not nearly as many as I would like. I promote the page on digg and other sites as well but this brings very poor returns. When you make a tool like this, do you do a lot of promotion? Have any tips for me? (btw...it's possible that my tools are just not as "shareable" as I think!)
