I found out how you can lose social authority (and maybe more) on your website.
If you will read this post with 100% attention you will like it:
1. You need a ?utm_source
2. You need a full page cache add-on like Lesti_FpcResult ? Incredible.
If you enter mywebsite.com/product1 and you like the page you give social authority to right page.
If you enter mywebsite.com/product1?utm_source.... and you like the page you give social authority to ?utm_source....
Well, most of us did not see that, cause facebook ads like page work good even you use a ?utm_source....
But if you use a full page cache, you have the chance that you index (cache) the page of product with ?utm_sourceThat why, i write there: How i can lose likes from Facebook on a category page. Mystery solved. Anyway i found out a way to explain the Facebook button to write on correct page and not on ?utm_source page and i removed the full page cache at the moment.
If you do not believe me you can check your self here: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/
Like your page without ?utm_source and like it with ?utm_sourceWith respect,

I've done Facebook ad campaigns and can definitely say that the likes don't go away when you turn them off.
You might try searching on the FB help community. You might be able to find someone having the same problem. (That's where I've been able to solve most of my FB problems.) There have definitely been times when FB's own reporting got screwed up, so it can be a check for that too.

Hey Erica, thank you for reply, and i am glad to hear answer from you. I usually read your posts on Moz.
But unfortunately , I have to contradict you. When we talk about a great number of likes , we can not put into account the possibility of mass unsubscribe or unlike/dislike. Chance for this to happen is too low. Even in a political showbiz likes will not acquire 0 (zero).
Somehow, not knowing how they(the likes) appeared again. You can check it here.
I have a bar in style of hellobar.com , and i can say mine is upgraded :))
We can leave this like a mystery, but in fact i have some theory about it. I think somehow they have great connection with paid campaigns on Facebook. Maybe someone who really care about SEM, can confirm that. If a campaign stop, likes gone away ?

You can definitely lose likes a couple ways: users can unlike it OR people who liked it have deleted or otherwise had their profile deleted by Facebook itself. It's so few that it's likely some user cleanup on Facebook's end. I wouldn't sweat it.

Why does someone's FB page rank so highly?
Hi Everyone, i recently ran a non-personalized search and saw that this facebook page https://www.facebook.com/tampapersonalinjurylawyers ranked very highly for both "personal injury attorney" and "tampa personal injury attorney." The page has very few likes, and they don't even post that often. From my limited knowledge, that leaves me guessing it's because its a quasi-exact match facebook page, but that can't be right...can it? (Ranking screenshot is attached) Thanks, Ruben GO4N11x

Content Marketing - what to post on their facebook page
Hello, I'm doing content marketing for an article that is helpful in our industry. When I'm building a relationship with a website, on Facebook I first like their page. Then, I'm liking and sharing a couple of recent posts that stand out and are related to our site. Should I read their recent blog posts and comment on their facebook page thanking them that what I read was helpful while posting a link to their blog post? Or should I post something else on their facebook page? Or should I not post on someone else's facebook page? Thanks.

Facebook shares/likes not showing correctly
Hi guys, I've been running searches on Opensiteexplorer for our site www(dot)mobileunlocked(dot)com and am seeing Facebook shares as 21 and 0 Likes. However, we have 2857 people who have liked our page on Facebook. I'm concerned that the search engines also aren't seeing our relationship with our true number so is there anything I can do to make sure this is being picked up? Thanks.

Getting more fans on Facebook
Does anyone have any tips or experience on how they increased their Facebook fan base? I work in the oil/fuel industry and getting people to like your Facebook page is quite difficult because our customers are mostly middle-aged men, who if statistics are to be believed aren't the most active on social media anyway. I've been doing regular posts for the past couple of weeks, liking other pages and joining conversations but don't seem to be getting any increase in followers. Does anyone have any advice, ideas or examples of what you did that worked? Thanks

Facebook Like Button or Like Box
Hi, A client has a FB like button on their website but is frustrated that those "likes" are disconnected from their company FB page. It is possible that they could change their website like button, to a like box, which will then mean people are liking their FB page and give them a greater opportunity for on-going engagement through FB. However, from an SEO perspective is it better for them to attract likes & potential sharing of their website content rather than their FB content? Thanks.

Anyone do SEO for facebook business pages? I'm having trouble with timeline layout.
I am working on my facebook business page and am frustrated with the new "timeline" facebook layout which really does not make sense as a business page. I have not found a way to change it to a traditional layout and have read some posts that said facebook does not allow you to go back from timeline. Does anyone have a good layout suggestions for a facebook business page with SEO in mind? Thanks.

Should my Facebook like button be for my Facebook page or my webpage?
I am curious as to people's opinion about the Facebook like button you add to a given website. It would seem with the increased influence of social media indicators that you would want to have people "like" your webpage (as opposed linking the like back to your Facebook page) when they go to your webpage, but this dilutes the number of likes you get at both Facebook and your webpage. It is my understanding that people are more likely to "like" a page that already has a lot of "likes." As most of my clients are very small businesses, this is a significant consideration as their "like" volumes are very low by default (i.e., if you only have a few hundred people who even use your business it is hard to get thousands of likes). Thanks for your opinion!
