PS: I just came across the mention of 760px vs 520 – I guess a follow-on question is whether there are different page types I can choose from to integrate our content.

Thanks!

I know this post is a little old and there’s been many changes to Facebook lately but I was wondering if your sample html-template above is still functional? I can’t seem to be able to download it properly. Any other way to get it or some kind of template for Facebook pages??

Thanks

I like the structure of your sample template but I’m not able to download the code. Could you please e-mail it. I would like to use it for: http://www.facebook.com/intentionwellness

Thanks for all of your work here. Great info!!

Hmm… I generally don’t read that many other blogs but experiment a lot instead. I watch hacker news and sphinn for good sources. Other than that I just try things out for my clients depending upon the different objectives they have.

My main recommendation is that you draw it on a paper and then try to create it on FB. Go to wiki.facebook.com and check out the discussion over there. Can be really useful and extremely helpful when trying to create stuff never created before.

Hi, thanks for a good post, some useful stuff.

Regarding no 4, mentioned by @Jon Buscall above: do you guys know of any good readings about linking out to my website vs. implementing content into the Facebook fan page?

That’s a bit of a struggle, I suppose there’s a line to draw somewhere. For example Newsletter sign-ups should be ok, but generally I feel I want to keep the fanpage “clean” from selling, as mentioned above.

It would be interesting to hear other marketers’ view on this. Appreciate some good links

@Jon – thnx for the input. Think this one will become a great resource as I pick up comments to the main content later on

@Tim – thank you. I am usually allergic to when people make anchor text links in my comment field, but I guess I asked for it

There’s a link to a post I did on the new Facebook width on our blog, but to save you some clicks:

Great idea. I think along with the technical / design aspect, a lot of my customers want to know what communication strategies to use with a FBFP.

So I would say:

1) Check in daily to engage with your audience
2) Post a variety of items daily to inspire, thrill, engage your audience. From the data I’ve collected from clients this means including photos and videos very regularly as they bring about more interaction
3) Ask questions using the word “You”. Again, it’s a clearer call-to-action to the reader to get involved. And a busier FBFP attracts more engagement and a bigger audience.
4) Link out to your website / blog where there are calls-to-action regarding your services, products, etc. Don’t sell directly in Facebook. Drive the traffic to specific landing / squeeze pages on your website.

Do you possibly have a link to where Facebook stated this? I would like to link to it from the post. This article will hopefully grow as I want it to cover as many aspects as possible. I have created a hack for a layover which is pretty neat, but I am still writing on that post… so… I would like a bigger update in the end of the week.
