Gosh, please don't take it badly--it was meant entirely in fun, I even put a happy face in my reply. I think you ask great questions and I enjoy your references to Weatherby, UK. I hope you can accept my apologies.

Thanks Tim, very Helpfull & so what if you produced the content

Chris,
Ive no idea what your talking about and to be honest I'm quite cross youve jumped on some bizarre theme of geocommentspam.
Why oh why did you do this? This is the first time Ive ever had a reply from a cynical viewpoint and had the audacity to tarnish my profile by playing judge & Jury.
Maybe youve drank too much cofee I just dont get how a question or any questions Ive posed could be in any way remotely related to brand building.
For the record this is the second time youve given me an obtuse answer whilst other responses from other community members are 99% on the money. So if anyones in line for a slap on the wrist by an administrator it should be you for playing judge & jury.
Well done mate, have a great wk end!

I'm not able to point you to a superlative guide on that subject.
However, I would like to introduce the idea of "geocommentspam" : -) as I'm beginning to wonder if your questions aren't actually cloaks for unsolicited bits of "information" pertaining to a targeted geographic location.
Now, some people may see your comments as a good way of raising awareness and brand building for a community, while others may see them as superfluous, off topic rhetoric that detracts from the conversation at hand-- and may not actually even be coming from a resident of such location, rather, from someone from outside who was paid to make it appear more popular, inviting, and worthwhile than it may actually be.
Depending on which way the wind blows, I have to say that a manual penalty from the powers that be may possibly be in store for you.

Facebook Business Page Optimization: Awards Section
Hi everyone! I am looking to add my clients awards to the Facebook business page to add a little "pow" and give myself a "look what I did" talking point at my next meeting with them. I was comparing their page to the competition, and I noticed the competition has a lovely Awards section under their About. Do you know how/where this is hiding? My clients business page is rather new (a little over a year old), so I'm leaning towards this was an old feature that Facebook has not hidden from older pages. Anyone have any idea on where this is hiding? fXVWEwM

Facebook guidlines for NPO
I've been trying to help a local chapter of a non-profit organisation set up a Facebook page (for free!) but the idea has been refused at the national level. I think from a lack of understanding of what good Facebook can do for their communication because even the page created for the whole NPO is very low on fans and hardly ever updated. I've got plenty of examples of NGOs doing well on Facebook. But what I'd love to find an example of an NGOs doing good work on Facebook through local chapters and (in my dreams) get my hands on guideline document that explains to local chapters how they should go about creating the page in accordance with the NGOs. Anyone out there have good examples ? Thanks Neil

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.

Is there a way to set up a business Facebook page without linking it to a client's personal page or having to use our own employee's personal page?
Our clients want us to manage their FB pages. I need to know how we can do this without having to enter through the FB page of whomever set up the business account. I'm aware of the ability of the person who set up the Business page to allow admin access, but that too requires an our employee to give his or her personal FB info for this access. In the same vein, a former employee set up a client's FB page using his own personal account and now when we enter the client's business page, we do not have access to the search window and we don't have the ability to go to other pages to "like" other pages - the button doesn't even appear if we are signed in and search a FB page through an engine. We do have the ability to see Admin settings and metrics but we don't have the news feed, and we have other limited access/abilities. I would like to have a central access so neither client or our employee has to offer personal FB log in information. Thank you, Julie

Good idea to include links in Facebook posts teaser-text?
Hi guys, I'm wondering; is it a good idea (for the engines primaliry) to include links with targeted keywords in facebook posts. From a user perspective I would say it's not desirable. But I'm wondering how Google and co treat links which they find there. They are nofollowed, yes. They are indexed however but when I want google to show me the text-only version of the cached page I receive an 404 error which is odd. Anybody else getting the 404 from google? Eg. clicking on this cache-URL: https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:jsC_26QVKbgJ:www.facebook.com/echoonline/posts/156674087731661+site:facebook.com/echoonline&cd=3&hl=de&ct=clnk&gl=de&client=firefox-a and then on "text only" leads to this page which does not exist: https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/echoonline/posts/156674087731661?_fb_noscript=1 Looking forward to your ideas on this topic.

I'm wondering what's the most important number in facebook that affect more the SEO of a site: It is the number of "Recommend" that your site have received or It is the number of fans the facebook fan page of the site have? Also does this really affect SEO or not? If you can provide some data, statistics, link to post or whatever it would be very nice. Thanks for your help
