Facebook Contest: Fan or Not?
-
Let's say that I manage a Page for a company, and I run a contest through a "Promoted Post".
-
Does every single Like to that "Promoted post" will be counted as new fan?
-
My objective is to increase the fans number of the page, which is your best practice to achieve that through a Facebook contest?
Many thanks.

Ok Sean, thank you anyway for your tips!
-
haha damn. Was hoping it was not something I am in. I already consult for one of the largest ecom online printing businesses.
I will say this. Social is not for every industry. Attributable revenue is not always there, look at assisted conversions and determine what your real goals for social are. As fan count isn't a metric to worry about. Look for either last touch, assisted revenue via Google analytics or some engagement metric. Too many people get caught up in social and how cool it is. At the end of the day, its money that matters.

Great Sean, thank you.
The industry is "online printing", if you have some ideas
-
No you can have someone like a post but not be fan.
Here is an example of an in newsfeed ad to like a page from my own newsfeed

If you want to give me more details of the business, I could give you ideas. Don't have to tell me their name. Just what they do so I know the industry.

Thank you Sean, very specific about the 2).
What is your answer to the question 1)?
1) Does every single Like to that "Promoted post" will be counted as new fan?

We do facebook ppc for a few clients and depending on the industry, it works really well. Am able to secure a good fan (in the industry) for maybe $0.25-0.50. Also try and capture their email as well by landing them on a tab which post like they can enter for a contest.
Key is to build out your campaigns very targeted instead of lumping stuff together. Its just like newbies with PPC versus people who are good at it. Granular is good.

Facebook: How do you post to a brand's page, as your own brand page?
Eg, if you are an administrator of "Funco" which has a FB page, how do you post on the wall of "Followerwonk" as "Funco", not your personal FB account?

Benefits of getting inbound links to your Facebook account to go through your domain?
Hi, I was browsing a magazine recently and came across an advert that had a text of: domain.com.au/facebook When you visit this address you are automatically redirected to their Facebook account. It got me thinking, is there any benefit to this? It's the first time I've seen it and I presume they get links from outside sources to their FB account to go to domain.com.au/facebook rather than facebook.com/sitename Thanks

Twitter and Facebook Back-link Aquisition procedure?
This is another novice question that I hope is easy to answer for someone out there. How do you get a backlink from twitter or facebook? Either Open Site Explorer is not recognizing my accounts or twitter and facebook are not reporting it for some reason. I have looked at other competitors and they have twitter and facebook that show up as linking to them. Do you have to do something special to get a link? Utah Tiger

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?

Facebook "Voting" App
I'm wondering if anyone has any recommendations for a "voting" app on Facebook. We have some user-generated recipes that we want to post and allow our fans to vote for their favorite. Similar to this: http://www.facebook.com/New7WondersofNature#!/New7WondersofNature?sk=app_114026852036251 I've contacted Woobox but they only allow users to choose between 2 options and we would need 5. Any thoughts?Thanks!
