Facebook Benefitting Businesses and Creating Customers the Honest Way

Set up a Facebook Page for your business, providing a forum for sharing information and engaging customers – establishing a community.

Visit the 'Create a Page' page, the layout will be simple to follow.

If you are already logged into Facebook, the page you create will be associated automatically with your Facebook profile. If you're not logged in, you will either have to log in to your account or create the page under a limited business account.

Make sure to read Facebook’s “Terms of Use” when exploring all options, to help in making the correct choice and to prevent any serious violations.

Customize your page with the standard Wall and Info tabs, or use Facebook Markup Language (FBML) to acquire that personal touch.

Users and perhaps now, customers, will be impressed by what your business has to offer. Facebook, however, isn’t through with its offer. Recently, it has implemented an upgrade to its self-serve ad system with a new ad format called, Sponsored Stories.

Now if you’ve perfected your business and Facebook skills, turning users into customers who “Like” your business, this news can be spread across the Facebook wire. In simple terms, when you like something on Facebook and someone has bought an ad for it, the story will be broadcast to your friends.
