Klout, the most popular influence measurement tool for Twitter, has now expanded their offering to Facebook. Brands can engage their fans on Facebook using Klout influence scores, tailoring their Facebook experience to the Klout score of their fans. Audi USA is one of the first brands to deploy the new Klout Facebook integration on their page. And with 3.5 million fans, this is quite the large-scale roll-out. Fans who visit the Audi Facebook page will be able to sign up to see their Klout score, and receive a special Audi digital Perk for doing so. The Klout/Facebook integration is in partnership with Involver Inc.

The Value of a Liker | Facebook

As our team has been meeting with media organizations across the globe (including at events hosted by groups such as Hacks/Hackers and the Online Publishers Association ) we’ve heard a clear request for more information about the types of people who click the Like button. We’re excited to release a new set of statistics to help publishers better understand the value of the Like button, and the people who click it. Who are “likers”? People who click the Facebook Like button are more engaged, active and connected than the average Facebook user. The average “liker” has 2.4x the amount of friends than that of a typical Facebook user . They are also more interested in exploring content they discover on Facebook -- they click on 5.3x more links to external sites than the typical Facebook user.

25 brilliant examples of Facebook brand pages | Econsultancy

http://econsultancy.com/blog/6438-25-brilliant-examples-of-facebook-brand-pages I love to see brands generating innovative, engaging and creative advertising online. Yet, I’m always surprised at how little effort companies put into Facebook from a creative perspective, especially given the noise they make about using the platform and the levels of engagement often put in. Arguably, Facebook does have a static format that needs changing, but it’s not that difficult – or expensive – to come up with some great landing page manipulation through Facebook Markup Language (FBML)... And some brands are taking advantage of this, to great effect. Here are a few examples from our How to Create Amazing Facebook Pages guide... Here, I’ve skimmed through a few lists of top global brands and have picked 25 of the best.

3 Ways Facebook's Pending Page Changes Affect Marketers

Nice summary, Pamela. Some of our brand clients have used the "boxes" on the Wall to describe and link to their community guidelines or Rules of the Road for the Facebook Page. Since these boxes will be going away as well, we're advising: 1) That they consider moving a link from their box to the about/description area, which *isn't* going away (thank goodness!) 2) That they make better use of their Info tab (Note: Neither space supports FBML but full URLs DO turn into links) 3) That they review and update custom tabs as needed, as you noted. Thanks for nice explanation.
http://radar.oreilly.com/2008/09/facebook-growth-by-age-group-s.html With the U.S. now accounting for only about a third of all Facebook users, we are starting to see a gradual shift away from its original demographic of college-age users (18-25): 46% of all users are 18-25 years old, down from 51% in late May. The number of users in the 18-25 segment is growing, but at a slower pace than the other age groups. Among the major Facebook age segments, the fastest growing are teens (13-17) and young (26-34) to middle-age (35-44) professionals, with the growth in teens driven by non-U.S. markets. Also note the strong growth in the much smaller 45-54 and 55-59 age groups:

http://adage.com/article/digitalnext/question-a-facebook-fan-worth-marketers/144437/ True to form, many of the technologies showcased during New York's annual Internet Week wowed, but what really generated attention were efforts to answer the $64,000 question: How do we measure the value of a Facebook fan, especially since Facebook is a dominant part of a marketer's toolkit? Two clever social-media technology companies, Syncapse and Vitrue, took a crack at answering this seemingly simple question. I say seemingly simple because, in reality, the "value" of a fan can mean lots of things such as actual sales value or value as evangelists or value as a research resource in a crowdsourcing campaign. And given the ad hoc nature of measurement today, it's no surprise, therefore, that we see wildly divergent answers from these two companies.
