What to post on my facebook page for maximum results
-
Hello,
What do you recommend I post on my facebook page for maximum reach?:
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Bob-Weikel-Associates/217292791620485
my site: bobweikel(dot)com
and how often?
It can't be too time consuming.
I'll invite more friends once I have some content.
Thanks!

Since the new timeline roll out it is very difficult to keep people engaged. From my point of view Facebook took the traffic away from businesses so they could turn around and charge them to promote the information. Having tested this over several facebook pages I have found that it is best to use the promote feature (located at the bottom right of any facebook post on your business page). It sucks that Facebook took away the reach but they have replaced it with a fairly inexpensive way of reaching lots of people. I have a Facebook page for freelancing professionals that gets a lot of engagement. The page has 11k fans and most of my posts are actually seen by about 11k people (although it is because some of my fans are sharing the page). Last week I pushed a post on the site and then went and promoted it for a budget of $50. The return for me was that 72k people saw the post, 178 liked, multiple comments, and an additional 200 fans were gained. I promoted to fans and friends of fans. I don't like that back in the spring Facebook took 2/3 of my facebook traffic away from all sites but replacing it with "promote" was a pretty smart move and gives me a way to get my content out in from of a bunch of people. Hope this helps.

Is there any SEO benefit of adding the Facebook "Like" widget to your site?
A lot of sites put their Facebook "Like" widget on their homepage and it shows the number of people who like them. Is there an SEO or marketing benefit to having this. I could see how this can provide social proof to visitors. Are there any other benefits?

Does buying thousands of Facebook Fans/Likes affect SEO?
To begin with, please pardon me if this question is ignorant. I'm completely new to this whole social media thing, and somewhat feel it is overhyped. I find it really difficult to believe that social media will actually help the majority of small business owners out there like me, and that most of them are probably being misled about the powers of social media to increase sales. Because it's mentioned so frequently, I've decided to delve into it a bit more to see how this could possibly help me business. Over the past few weeks, I've become familiar with a company that sells Facebook Likes, Twitter followers, as well as YouTube and SoundCloud plays. Since my official Twitter and FaceBook accounts really didn't have that many followers, I decided to buy a few thousand followers for each account. Initially, I bought them because I wondered what would happen if a customer that visited my online store happened to go to those Twitter and Facebook pages. If I personally see a Facebook page with few followers, I probably wouldn't give them my business. I would want to go with a company that seems to generate a bunch of traffic to their pages. Originally, I only had about 200 Facebook followers (now called Likes, it seems) and maybe 25 Twitter followers. I now have over 12,000 Twitter followers and 2,000 Facebook Likes. I may end up buying more since the service was pretty quick and affordable. I'd like to know if Google factors Likes and followers into it's formula for creating SERPS. Will my website rank higher if I have 10,000 likes, rather than only 200? If so, would it be a notable increase? FWIW, I found that more people organically started following my Facebook and Twitter accounts once I had more followers. I didn't change anything about how I maintained the page; I just had more people following them. One other thing of note: these companies are almost certainly using fake/hacked accounts to like various pages around Facebook/Twitter. You can tell because my Facebook page says some city in Croatia has the most amount of 'likes' of my page. Do you think this might come into play at all? Thanks for any and all help!
