As I read through the maze of information on Facebook, once again, I stumbled upon a newer Facebook feature... BLOGS! The Facebook Blog Network allows you to post your blog URL, provide a brief description and a few keywords, and once you have enough "Fans" for your blog, they will also start a feed with links to your latest and greatest blog postings.
This new funtionality is a great way to get some additional visibility -- and some Google juice -- for your real estate blog.
HOW DO YOU FIND THE "BLOG SECTION" on Facebook?
I thought there might be secret door to the Blog section, but it was as easy as entering "BLOG NETWORKS" into the Search bar at the top right side of the page.
To set up your blog, it's just two simple steps...
1) Select "Browse Blogs" or "Top Blogs" at the top of the page
2) You'll then see a "ADD A NEW BLOG" grey button to the right of the blog menu -- from there you'll just enter your info and you will officially be up and running.
NOTE: To find your blog in the future, go back to your personal Facebook home page, select the plus "+" button to add a new tab, and then select "Blogs".
As you'll see below, I can now view my Info, Photos, Wall and Blogs from my Kerry Lucasse Facebook page.
IMPORTANT -- In order to have your blog posts feed to Facebook, YOU NEED SOME "BLOG FANS"!
As I mentioned earlier, Facebook is only supporting Blog Feeds from blogs with 15+ "fans" at this time -- apparently the blog feed feature is still in beta testing. If we could support one another to get to the 15 fan minimum quickly, that would be wonderful. Post the link to your Facebook Blog in your reply below and I will become your biggest fan -- and hopefully other visitors will do the same!

I hope you will add your link below... and also become a fan of my blog. It's a great way to leverage the power of Active Rain to support one another!
Have fun....

As of January 1, 2009, Facebook changed the name of the "Blog Network" to "NETWORKEDblogs" (all one word). If you are having trouble finding the "Add a New Blog" button, visit the following page:

For future reference, just type "NetworkedBlogs" in the search bar.
Happy New Year!
