Having a successful Facebook page for your business is essential in today’s social age. Social media platforms are home to the biggest worldwide network of people.

Here are our ‘Top Ten Tips’ to help get your page noticed…

  1. Profile Picture – Use a recognisable company logo as your profile picture. Don’t change this too frequently as it can cause confusion.
  1. Cover Photo – Your cover photo should be an image that represents your company – keep it simple but effective.
  1. Like, Share & Comment – Doing this on behalf of your page creates conversation with people and is a great way to make your page visible whilst showing interest in others.
  1. Check Your Notifications – If you don’t check your notifications you could be missing out on sales. If you don’t respond promptly to questions or even not at all it could ultimately lose you custom and bad feedback.
  1. Post Relevant Articles – It’s very important to be seen as a leader in your industry, so posting relevant sector news is a great way to show that you’re up to date and informed!

  1. Share Your Blogs – If you’re a keen blogger, it’s a great idea to share this on your business page! Offering your knowledge and opinions on current topics helps increase visits to your site with the possibility of sales.
  1. Updating Your Status – 85% of Facebook users expect businesses to be using social media to communicate. Updating your status regularly about what you’ve been working on is a great way to gain attention.
