50 Creative Ways to Get More Facebook Likes
If you have a Facebook Page for your small business, it doesn’t take long to realize that you need people to “like” your page before you can do much of anything.
Here are 50 ways to directly (and indirectly) get more folks to “like” your Facebook page:
1. Create a vanity URL
Instead of using the default Facebook URL, you eventually need to have a vanity URL that clearly describes your small business. Once you have 25 page “likes”, you can create a custom URL.
2. Upload a memorable Facebook Page cover
The banner area at the top of your Facebook page is valuable marketing space, so let the creative juices flow. Upload a picture that gives your prospects a visually stimulating look at your small business brand.
Your picture size can be 810px wide and any height that you would like. You can ask professionals like Ruby Marketing group or try-out Page Covers which will help you create a free cover for your page.
3. Let your fans vote
There’s nothing better than allowing your fans the chance to vote. It’s a great way to create user engagement around a hot industry topic. You can use the Easy Vote application to create your polls.
4. Integrate plugins into your page
There are thousands of plugins that can enhance the overall experience of your Facebook page. Take a look at some of the more popular plugins on the Facebook developer page.
5. Invite your email subscribers
Ask your email list to “like” your Facebook page. Of course, if you offer some type of incentive, this will only increase the amount of likes you receive from your list.
