The 7 Biggest Fan Page Marketing Mistakes

The 7 Biggest Fan Page Marketing Mistakes
After working with many companies on Facebook marketing, teaching many students, and speaking with many audiences, I’ve discovered some common mistakes that hold companies back from getting results. If you want to get better Facebook fan page marketing results, check this list and find out whether you’re making any of these mistakes. Fan Page Mistake #1: Assuming People Go To Your Fan Page (Versus Seeing Your Posts In Their News Feed) Most people, if they ever go to a fan page, only go there once. Some highly interactive pages get more visitors, and you can bring fans back to the page or to specific tabs with posts or ads, but usually fans see your page’s posts via their news feed. One of the biggest surprises to me, in teaching Facebook marketing to many audiences, was that most business owners don’t understand how people use Facebook: This is also a good reason to look at Facebook Groups, because every time any Group member posts or comments, everyone gets a notification.

3 Social Media Marketing Lessons Taught by MySpace Failure Social Networking is not new, or at least it’s not as new as we think. Back in 2005 MySpace was the ruler of social networks and when News Corporation bought it for $580 million it looked like Rupert Murdoch’s empire had added a powerful string to its bow. Fast forward six years later and Justin Timberlake is able to snap it up for just $35 million. The question is ‘what went wrong?’ In many ways MySpace was the pioneer of large-scale social networking, and back in 2005 its position seemed unassailable. So, what can be learnt? What made Facebook take off and MySpace fail is the fact that the former managed to latch onto something which the latter failed to even realize in time and that is the holy trinity of personalisation, socialisation and commercialism. Does it allow you to establish an identity and project your personality? Facebook answered all three in a convincing enough fashion to establish itself as the pre-eminent social network to be in.

Facebook interdit la création d’Apps non sécurisées le 1er Octobre : marche à suivre Bonjour à toutes et à tous. Je me permets aujourd’hui de vous parler un peu des applications Facebook, et plus particulièrement des nouvelles attentes en terme de sécurité. Depuis 8 mois, Facebook permet la navigation sécurisée, en HTTPS et non plus en HTTP, ce qui implique que lorsque l’internaute tombe sur une page affichée à l’aide d’une Iframe (c’est le cas pour la majorité des applications qui ne sont pas générées automatiquement), il quitte –éventuellement– cette navigation sécurisée. Concrètement, cela signifie qu’au lieu de découvrir votre magnifique encart faisant office de Landing-Page (ou autre), il tombe d’abord sur un message d’avertissement de la part de Facebook. Et le moins que l’on puisse dire, c’est que ce message décourage vraiment l’internaute à poursuivre son parcours, puisqu’il explique que le contenu affiché n’étant pas sécurisé, Facebook basculera automatiquement sa navigation en HTTP. Comme premier aperçu d’une présence de marque, on peut forcément mieux faire.

Créez votre propre onglet personnalisé pour votre Fan-Page Facebook en 5 étapes Bonjour à toutes et à tous. Après quelques semaines de repos (je comptais faire une pause entre Noël et le Jour de l’An, mais j’ai un peu exagéré la chose, j’espère d’ailleurs que ça n’a embêté personne), je reprends la plume pour vous parler d’applications Facebook, et plus précisément, d’applications à ajouter en tant qu’onglets sur les Fan-Pages, autrement dit les « Iframe Apps ». Je vous avais déjà proposé un article à ce sujet il y a 1 an, que vous pouvez retrouver via ce lien. Ce billet vous expliquait étape par étape la marche à suivre afin de créer puis d’ajouter son application à sa page sur Facebook ; cependant, beaucoup d’eau a coulé sous les ponts depuis Février 2011 et le processus n’est désormais plus vraiment le même, d’autant plus que Facebook impose désormais la possession d’un certificat SSL sur son domaine. J’ai donc décidé, en vue des questions posées dernièrement dans les commentaires, de créer un nouveau tutoriel pour tous ceux qui pourraient en avoir besoin. 1. 2.
