Facebook Comment Notifications
-
I setup Facebook comments on my site using the iframe setup. I thought FB would notify me whenever someone comments on my website, but that is not the case. Now people are commenting and I would have to look through hundreds of pages on my site to reply to their questions.
I searched the web on how to do this, but I am lost when looking at the steps. Can anyone help provide clear instructions on how to notify me of my website comments on my FB page or by email?

Any time, keep on rocking and thanks for the link.

Thanks for the help. It is greatly appreciated!
I have hundreds of dynamically created pages that I am hoping will benefit from more unique content. Here is an example page: http://www.jwsuretybonds.com/surety-bonds/surety_bond.php?bond_form_id=626&bond_type_id=320
I'll reply here when I know more about the impact.
I searched all over for how to properly hide the output of the FB script, but can't find anything that is guaranteed white hat.

Great, im happy you got it working. Sure, keep it white hat. i would have a look on the Facebook Forums, im sure there are many developers out there with the same issue.
Please keep me updated. Im curious to see how this impacts your traffic.

I implemented the subscribe script at: http://www.jwsuretybonds.com/surety-bonds/commercial-bonds/auto_dealer_bond.htm
Unfortunately, the FB php script displays the text and I am not sure the white hat way to hide it from the browsers since they already see the commments in the iframe.
I also found that FB has a variable for 'send_notification_uid', which you can loust your user id to be notified. I implemented both for now and will see which is better.

Any news? If this helped then please mark this answered for me

basically you will need to add this, making the notify value true, hope this works.
3 down vote acceptedAdd the notify="true" attribute to the fb:comments tag.
FB.Event.subscribe('comment.create', function(response)
{
alert(response);
}| | |

Awesome! I integrated the meta tag so the comments appear in the "Comment Moderation Tool". I COULD just check on that daily, but it looks like it can notify me further. Here is what the documentation says...
How do I know when someone comments on my site?
You can subscribe to the 'comment.create' and 'comment.remove' events through FB.Event.subscribe.
Any idea on how to "subscribe" to something?

Ok cool. From the research i did a while ago i found out that this feature was removed from the API.
I cam across this thread which says admins can moderate comments made on their sites, thus i assume you can view comments / get notified before they are publish.
http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/comments/
Look at the section that says Moderation Tools
Pleas let me know if this helped or not.

A regular html/css site using the FB iframe plugin. Here is an example page of our site using the plugin: http://www.jwsuretybonds.com/surety-bonds/commercial-bonds/auto_dealer_bond.htm

What type of website are you running? The Facebook Comment, is this running via a plugin or a custom api?

Facebook Ads Frequency Setting in Ad Set
Hello Guys, I have something which annoyes me already a long time with FB Ads. When you set up a campaign and an ad set and you have in your ad set 3 different ads (which makes totally sense to test them against each other) facebook is deciding really often way too early which ad might be the best ad. Often the algorithm starts to prefer one ad already after a few hundred impressions and the other ads are not getting any impressions any more. I cannot find an option like in Google Adwords that just all Ads are shown the same amount of times and that I can decide then on my own which ad I prefer to run. Unfortunately I cannot find anywhere an option to disable this 'auto-optimization' and I didn't find anyhting in the web as well. Would be pretty happy if someone can help me with this problem! Thanks!

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.

Does promoting a new page on twitter/facebook help it get indexed faster?
I know this probably won't matter much to people who get crawled on a regular basis, but for those of us who don't, does promoting a new page on social media help it get indexed faster with google? My site rarely gets crawled, but I've recently been adding new content. When I add new content I started to promote it on facebook/twitter and I do get minimal traffic from it. I noticed that a couple of the pages seem to be indexing quicker than pages normally do for me, although I'm not sure if it's because I recently migrated to WP or what..? I know T/FB are no follow sites, but is there a chance that promoting a page may contribute to the pages getting indexed? Thanks for any insight you can shed on the matter. It's more for curiosities sake than anything else. Pete S.

Facebook Places & Business Pages - Any way to consolidate
Hello, I've read multiple posts on this, and the new timeline layout rolling out for business pages..but I haven't seen an update to this issue. My company has a retail store and an online store. Because of this, we had to create a places page and a regular business page. When people "check-in" via Facebook, the check-in goes to the places page. But our main marketing efforts and large fan base are at the business page. Facebook used to allow you to combine these. In a perfect world, all would live on one business page. Has anyone heard an update on this feature? Thanks either way.

Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, etc. Is there value in a presence on them?
I have a client (professional practice) whose father is a marketing professor. He is pushing the client that he should have a professional page on social sites. While I believe having FB likes, shares, Tweet links, +1, etc. on the page, I really am ambivalent about building pages specifically for social media sites.
