Social Media especially Facebook and Fan Pages are the wave of the future. IMHO there should be a totally new forum created for this.

Fan Pages can be made to be like Squeeze pages.

Facebook current has over 5,000,000 active users. Of those users 50% are on line every single day and the amount of time they spend there if over 55 min. This means that you will be able to get your business in front of an amazing number of people every day.

Also you can really target your advertising.

I am just really surprised that none of the forums I've been on the last couple of days do not have a section devoted to Social Media and Facebook Fan Pages.

I am not sure that most facebook users care to take notice of most companies, I mean they are on facebook to chat and say how wonderful or bad the day was, facebook isnt all it is made out to be, trust me.

Problem is information overload. Fan Pages updates are displayed just like your friend's updates. For people with lots of friends and lots of likes, more often than not the page updates will just get skipped.

You need to exploit the potential of social media to the fullest. Not just facebook, there are others like Myspace, Stumbleupon, Delicious, Twitter and even other local microblogging platforms..

Well offcourse, If I am not wrong facebook has bit the google traffic. Social media is a great way to connect and build a whole network.

I am new to SEO but in my own observation I think you have a point. Now adays there a lot of people are using facebook. So there is a high possibility that when you advertise on facebook it is surely viewed by a lot of people. This is my own point of view please correct me if I am wrong.

Let us not put a name to it. All the important forums on the world wide web which are popular and attract genuine users to it must be explored as a source of web traffic.

lol I think you will find Facebook gets more traffic than Google, which should illustrate the size of Facebook.

speaking of facebook pages... I'd like to show you something:

To take a look how big brands leverage their facebook marketing take a look at this facebook page showcases:

facebook page showcase #1
facebook page showcase #2
facebook page showcase #3

If you want one for yourself, you can either design a facebook page on your own or purchase a cool facebook template

I personally think that Facebook is a huge marketing opportunity, and from what I have noticed - they are trying to evolve to help people promote their own businesses.. so stick with Facebook... remember my words
