S05|17 - how to create a facebook fanpage

Notes

Description

Now we want to create a Facebook fan page for our new store. Creating a Facebook Fan Page is essential. If we dont, we wont be able to advertise in peoples newsfeeds. Instead, you will only be bale to advertise using the sidebar ads which is very ineffective

Ideally, you want to be adding regular content to your fan page and to be creating custom graphics for it so it stands out. If you do this then you can grow it and you can use it as a free traffic source. Plus, it can help build authority.
