If you’re like most people, you probably have a Facebook account and use it almost daily. But once you get past the initial nag to “please, update your status”, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it. Even though you probably have more than 400 Facebook friends, chances are you only see about 25 of them each time you open Facebook. If that’s the case, it might be time to take action and get more out of your social media investment. Facebook offers several ways to add new friends so it’s worth taking a look at how to get the most out of your profile.
Add New Friends
If you’ve been paying attention, this is the first tip. You can add new friends to Facebook in a few different ways. The most straightforward way is by clicking the “Like” button at the top of the Facebook page. This is the button that appears before you post something. However, you can also select the “Like This Page” option and follow other Facebook pages by scrolling down until you find the one you want to follow. You can also click the “Follow” button at the bottom of the Facebook page when following someone else’s page. With these options, you’ll see that your new Facebook friends will automatically be added to your “friends” list, which you can see at the top of the page. Click the ” enemies ” option next to the ” friends ” list to remove someone from your list.
Like and Follow Other Accounts
You can also add new friends by clicking the “Like” button next to the “Follow” button at the top of the Facebook page. This will bring up a menu where you can select which account to “Like.” You can also “Follow” accounts by clicking the “Follow” button at the bottom of the Facebook page and selecting the option that says “Powered by Facebook.” From here, you can also “follow” other pages, which will add them to your Facebook “friends” list. If you want to keep only a select group of Facebook friends on your friends list, you can remove them one-by-one by clicking the “Unfollow” button at the bottom of the Facebook page.
Set Up Your Profile
Once you’ve added new friends, it’s time to set up your profile. You can do this by clicking “Settings” at the top right-hand corner of the Facebook page and selecting “General” from the drop-down menu. From the “General” page, you can change your “About” section to reflect information about you such as your age, interests, and education. You can also select the “Pages” section to create a profile for each Facebook page you are part of. This is particularly useful if you have numerous Facebook pages and want to keep your profile organized.
Use Facebook Ads
Now that you’ve set up your Facebook profile to attract new friends, it’s time to turn your attention to advertising on Facebook. The ads you see on Facebook can be a source of new friends and new leads. You can create custom Facebook ads that promote products and services that may be of interest to your target audience. Facebook also allows you to create “native ads” that will appear right within the feed of your Facebook friends. You can choose to show these ads to your friends or post them to your wall. Facebook also allows you to create “sponsored stories” that will appear at the bottom of your News Feed. You can choose to include this type of story in your Facebook posts or make them as a Facebook ” Stories ” feed.
Ask Other Brands to Join You On Facebook
If you’ve been seeing results from the advertising, then it’s time to expand your strategy and start looking at ways to get new brands to join you on Facebook. This is a great way to get more traffic to your website and more sales from your customers. First, find the Facebook page for the brand you want to add and click the “connect with me” option at the bottom of the page. From there, fill out the details about the brand and add any relevant information about the company. You can also click the “request to join” option at the bottom of the page and select the type of request you want.
Conclusion
Facebook is a great tool for connecting with friends, family, and other social media contacts. It’s also a great place to build your business contacts and lead to new business. However, if you don’t use it often, you might not be aware of some of the great benefits of joining the social network. For example, when you set up your Facebook account, you create a “who’s who” in the business world. This includes businesses who are part of your social media networks and allows you to find potential customers easily. After you set up your Facebook account, you’ll also want to make sure you’re adding new friends and following other accounts. Doing so not only helps you get more out of Facebook, but it also helps other businesses notice you and become interested in your services.
