How to Virally Grow Your Facebook Fan Page. Facebook introduced the "People Talking about This" metric a few months ago. Initially, many were skeptical of how useful it would be. As it turns out, it's actually one of the best metrics you can use to gauge your Facebook marketing. This one number tells you how effective your Facebook Marketing is on a weekly basis. And it's the key to virally growing your Facebook fan page. Why? Your "Viral Reach" is closely tied to how many people are "Talking about You". So the more people that "talk about you", the more your Facebook page will virally grow on its own. But there's a huge problem. What's stopping you from virally growing your Facebook fan page?

Facebook Unifies UI As It Rolls Out New Design For ‘Pages’ Back in December Facebook unveiled a significant redesign to user profiles, which now feature a handful of photos at the top of the page, new sections for featuring your family members and best friends, and some other mostly-cosmetic tweaks. Today, the site is launching a similar design for ‘Facebook Pages’ — the public profiles used by brands, businesses, and celebrities to communicate with thousands or millions of fans at once. The new Pages incorporate many of the changes made during the December redesign: you can now feature images at the top of the page. Application tabs are being moved from the top of the profile down to a sidebar just beneath the profile image. And there’s a widget that shows what ‘Likes’ you have in common with the Page.
