I just added a fanbox to my website. www.YourLocalHomeTeam.com  What do you think?

Do you have a business page on facebook? If not these is an easy way to separate personal from business posts.  Posts appear on your fans walls giving them up the minute information on the market and current conditions. I have an rss feed built in from my activerain blog. As soon as I post a blog it feeds into twitter, linkedin and facebook.

See my business page

http://www.facebook.com/pages/Delafield-WI/Brad-Koenig-Your-Local-Home-Team-First-Weber/44124017203

or my fan box

 

I am still looking for a better way to have this on my external blog.  www.MyWisconsinRealEstateBlog.com  Does anyone have any ideas?

 

Why would I want to Integrate with Facebook Connect?

With Facebook Connect, you can incorporate your users' true identities as represented on Facebook whenever they visit your site. By integrating their personal, privacy and account information, you can add Facebook's rich social context to the content they create on your site. Likewise, you can publish information to Facebook based on the actions your users take on your site. You can also dynamically show which of your users' Facebook friends already have accounts on your site.

There's no need to build a complete application on Facebook (you only need to configure a basic application to get an API key and provide the callback and canvas page URLs). You simply use your current site and connect to Facebook using Facebook Platform.

The end result is that you'll get distribution on Facebook for the social actions users take on your site. So when a user takes a social action (such as reviewing a book or album, or posting content on your site), it generates a News Feed story on Facebook. Or you can call users.getInfo from the Facebook API and get a user's name and profile picture (or even something like his or her Facebook status) and have that appear for the user on your site.

In summary, Facebook Connect is:

  • Simple: With a single sign-on process, users can easily log in to your site and Facebook using the same account.
  • Social: Integrate your users' Facebook social graphs with their social graphs on your site to provide better content with a social context.
  • Seamless: Publish the actions users take on your site on Facebook.
  • Synchronized: Keep your users' personal and friend data in sync with Facebook.

How can we get it to look like the one on your homepage on our AR outside blog? That's what I'm having difficulty with.

Yeah I am not sure. I would email  support@activerain.com  I tried a couple diffrent ways using their widgets.  Nothing worked. I would be curious to see if you get it to work.

I attended an online SEO workshop where they recommended 'not' having links on your website home page that take people somewhere else. I have to say, it makes sense. Working to get people to the website and then showing them the door may not get the results we're after. Just a thought...

Hello John

I read the same thing, they said add it to your contact me page.  Strange. Everyone has a diffrent opinion.
