Facebook Pages Get a Major Upgrade

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with Goodtree & Co., Inc.

Not too long ago, we railed against the limited functionality of Facebook Pages for business. But all that is in the past. Facebook Pages now look and behave like Profile Pages, enabling true two-way interaction with your customers and fans.

IF YOU HAVE A FACEBOOK BUSINESS PAGE

If you already have a Facebook Page for your business, you need to go have a look at what the changes have wrought on your previous design.

Many people had previously used a work-around called Extended Info to add more content to FB Pages. That info is now assigned to the sidebar, leaving the new page mostly blank.

Visit your FB Page, update the content and send a blast to your fans.

IF YOU DON’T HAVE A FACEBOOK PAGE

If you have resisted getting a FB Page for your business, now is the time. With all the new functionality, there is sure to be a rush of new Pages.

Join the fray now. On your FB Home, click on Ads and Pages (on the right, under Applications). If you don’t have Ads and Pages, search under the Applications link and add it.

Contact Goodtree & Company for more info. Or friend us on Facebook ;)

I finally joned FB about 3 weeks ago.  I'm already addicted.  I had just gotten used to the format and now it is changed.  May be just luck, but I got my first referral on FB today.

Hal - Don't have a business page, so will look into it.  Hopefully I can find it.

Okay, is it creating an ad?  And does this cost money?
