Don't become obsessed with fans. It is better to have say 200 fans who are interested in your products than 1000 fans who just signed up.

Also don't fall foul of the facebook rules if you run competitions - avoid share and like this photo/post to win.

As a B2B supplier I do not have a facebook page (don't even have a website for my new company!) but a friend of mine recently paid to increase FB likes on their page. It cost them £200 and within 24 hours they had 500 likes.

Not sure how it was done but I do know that she ran a competition to win a pair of earings (they cost her £7.00 and retail at £25.00 so no big cost).

Yeah give aways within the rules are the best

The only problem is mobile users cant see the tabs on there devices

Our products are B2B and direct to public.
Some of our stockists also have FB pages, so it works well to be linked to each other through likes on there, as we can then "cross pollinate" our likers.
We then have stockists as well as public people following what we're doing, which is useful.

I have FB pages.. but not fussed on the amount of 'likes' but do sell more from FB than I do from my website lol

How much effort do you put into your facebook advertising?

I spend a few hours a week on networking pages.. doesn't cost a penny except a little time *usually while watching tv* plus I have a few friends who constantly share my pages for cheaper work

No doubt about that Facebook is really providing huge benefit to the general audience in terms of advertising stuff because before such social media pages it was really difficult for the business personnels to advertise their business on the web. website design service
