Here are seven ways to get this job done. We’re about to discuss six different third-party tools for publishing to pages, but before we get into any of that, let’s talk about doing it directly on Facebook, inputting text and links in the status field. The algorithm that determines post placement in Facebook’s news feed tends to lower the priority updates from third-party apps. If there are good reasons not to use third-party tools, then why would you want to use them at all? With that in mind, here are six of the top tools that social media experts, brands, and agencies are using to update their pages.

Facebook sera-t-il le nouveau Yahoo ? Le Facebook que nous connaissons aujourd’hui (en 2012) est très différent de celui que nous avons connu en 2010, et encore plus de ce qu’il était en 2007 (cf. L’impact des changements de Facebook pour les utilisateurs, les annonceurs et les fournisseurs de contenu et Pourquoi les Timeline Applications vont vous forcer à repenser votre présence sur Facebook). Bref, c’est une plateforme sociale en permanente évolution qui, non content d’avoir une position dominante, cherche à accroitre encore cette domination. Puisqu’ils vont très prochainement récolter plusieurs milliards de $ en bourse pour financer cette évolution, la grande question est maintenant de savoir dans quelle direction va se faire cette évolution.

The Biggest Facebook Posting Mistake You Can Make What if there were a way to post to Facebook that would reduce your interactions with fans by up to 70 percent? You’d want to avoid that, wouldn’t you? As you may know, lower interaction rates result in less visibility in the news feed. Fewer of your fans see you, and those that do may care less. It reduces your reach and hurts your brand. The biggest posting mistake is: using anything other than Facebook’s own interface for sharing via desktop (Note the exceptions below.). Typical alternate post publishers include CoTweet, HootSuite, Involver, various Twitter feed services, SocialOomph, and others; exceptions include Buddy Media, Involver, Vitrue, Syncapse, Shoutlet and Context Optional (although Facebook may change its policies to give all third parties equal treatment). The normal Facebook web status update publisher is shown here: If you publish from most of the other custom publishers like HootSuite or Ping.fm, you may be doing harm to your entire Facebook fan campaign.
