How to regain Facebook Page Authority - For page badly affected with spam users
-
Case- company Facebook page has more than 10K users and almost 50% are spam. When this happens, edge rank of the page is badly affected (because spam users are not interested in your shared content so they hide you/remove you from feed and of course never engage).
Not to mention Facebook released an update end of 2014 where page will have less visibility anyway compared to user updates.
Overall the Page updates get very less exposure / impressions
Now only solution is to remove this huge no of spam users one by one or by an API.
Question - Does removing the spam users regain the authority of the page ? Does that solve the overall issue ?
What are the other solution to fix the situation ?
Thanks.

Good Morning!
I feel like it might be important to discuss how you acquired so many "spam" fans in the first place. I assume these fans were not generated naturally? If so, you could prevent this in the future by being more selective in your ad targeting.
While the removal process will undoubtedly be slow and might not have a direct impact on the "authority" of your page, it will help increase your organic reach. When you have a high number of disengaged ("fake") fans that do not interact with any of your posts, your organic reach will suffer greatly. However, by cleaning up your fan base and reaching more fans who are actually interested with that you have to say, engagement as a percentage will increase - sending positive signals to Facebook - and your reach will increase because of this. It is always better to have a smaller number of legitimate fans that a high number of disengaged fans just for the sake of having x amount of followers. Happy fans = happy Facebook.
Hope this helps!

2 Facebook Company Pages - Best way to merge
Hi I am about to set up a Facebook company page under our current brand name Key - however in March we'll be re-branding to Manutan UK. I didn't want to wait until March to start using Facebook (we're so behind!) but when we re-brand what are the best steps to take. Here are my options - I'd love some help! 1. Set up a Key company to actively use now & a separate Manutan page just to secure the page - only using Key until March then merge the business pages (I did read however Facebook won't allow it if the names are different?) 2. Set up a Key page now & in March request a name change of the page & vanity URL We obviously don't want to lose any likes/followers we've gained between now & March Does anyone have any advice or experience with this? Thank you

How to see all our ads' relevance scores in Facebook reporting all at once?
Hello, We run Facebook ads for 30+ companies each month. We have not found a way to quickly monitor relevance scores from all our clients in one reporting format. Right now, we're still going into the ad account for each client, then into each ad to check the relevance scores, either in Ads Manager or Power Editor. Is there a way we can pull up relevance scores from all ads across clients in one fell swoop using Business Manager reporting features?

Opinions on offering an incentive/discount for Facebook sharing
I often see sites offering a discount for liking their Facebook page, but very rarely do I see sites offering a discount for sharing a link or their page. What are your opinions of this, is it something that Facebook could frown upon? Are people likely to just share, get the discount and then remove the post etc?

Does adding a twitter or facebook feed to a website help rankings in regards of providing fresh content?
I have been asked if this is a sufficient way to provide fresh content to a website, however I am unsure if Google considers this as "fresh content", and I can't seem to come across a clear answer. Any thoughts?

Like my Facebook Page or my Facebook URL?
Like many other companies or company has a site and a Facebook page. With the Facebook like button your can either specify a url or a Facebook Page. So I don't know what would be better to get more 'likes' or if I need both? My thoughts: More people liking the Facebook Page then we can post updated to more people that will show on their wall. More url likes, I think this might have (or will have) effect on search engine rankings. The more people that like your url the higher it could be in rankings. I don't really want both as most people won't go through the trouble to 'like' both plus it is confusing. Please let me know your thoughts or strategy.
