@Foodie- Yes, you can start 2 pages or more if you wish.

I've written several articles and eGuides on the marketing viability of Facebook fan pages. While I can't answer every single question directly here, I believe the resources here can give alot of page owners insight as to how robust of a marketing platform Facebook pages really are. They go beyond the basics and talk about advanced tactics.

I believe in the viability of the platform so much that I've rolled out Facebook engagement marketing services to help those who want to leverage the platform. We're about to announce a contest on my own customized fanpage where some lucky fan can win a makeover of their fanpage :)

A case study for a client's fan page.

I hope this helps.

Hi thanks for this info about facebook.  I am already on facebook as an nindividuel and was wondering if it is worth it to put up a busainess page.  I am in South Africa.

Thanks for the article.

I have a question. How do I setup my business page so that anyone including non-Facebook members view it? My current bussines page is not accessible without login into Facebook, however I have seen other pages which allows public access.


Thank you.

Hello and thank you for posting the FB business page information. The topic is one that has been on my mind for quite some time. Before I could even get thru the article however, I found your name to be intriguing and immediately went to your website. Congratulations on your inaugural wines and thank you for your commitment to making the world's most phenomenal product! Much success to you. I'm looking forward to receiving your emails.

Facebook pages and groups are cute - but the bottom line is that people visit them a few times and never come back.  Also conversions from Facebook pages are not that great - at least from the many companies that I know of who have tons of fans but hardly no traffic from these pages to their websites.

Thanks for the advice. I tried to do what you told but at the end google find me only if i type my personal name, Sighinas Stefania and shows me also the business.

BUT

Unfortunately does not find me as a unique business, when i type the company name Pensiunea Venus . The problem is that i prefer to find me as a company, i dont make a brand out of my name. So what should i do? delete the personal name and put there my company one?

Thank you for the information.

iyazam makes a great point.  When I use facebook I hardly go back to a business page after the first visit.  The only businesses that always get good traffic are the ones that make the facebook games, puzzles, and quizzes.

I know that exposure is always good for business, but has anyone found that Facebook (and other social media sites) have directly resulted in increased sales?  I have very limited time, and these social media sites seem to take a lot of time and effort.  Any thoughts??
