Create a Facebook Fan Page

Facebook fan pages are great for many reasons. Many people use them to connect with and offer value to people on a wider level that is not possible with facebook profiles. However, they are also great for helping to boost your search engine optimization. Here are seven ways that you can take advantage of facebook fan pages to make it happen.

1. Do some keyword research before you create the title of your facebook fan page. Then once you have found a highly searched for keyword that is also appropriate to the theme of your fan page, create your page using that keyword in the title. Since the title of your fan page is the first thing that will show up in the search engines, this is a crucial step that many people miss.

2. Take some time to plan out what you will include on your facebook fan page. Make sure that the content you post is not only keyword centered for SEO but that it is also interesting for your fans to read or watch.

3. Make sure that you update your facebook fan page on a regular basis. High search engine rankings require that the content be updated regularly and by making sure to add something to your fan page at least two or three times per week you will ensure that the search engines view your fan page as a site that is updated regularly.

4. Set a goal to get 100 fans as soon as possible. As soon as you do, you will be able to register a short url for your fan page. This is important so that your fans can easily remember the url but also for SEO. Make sure that when you do register your short url that you use a keyword that is memorable and also something that people are typing into the search engines.

5. Strive to include some content on your fan page that is unique. Maximizing the SEO of your fan page does not require you to use only exclusive content but having some unique content is always a good idea.

6. Include links to your fan page wherever possible. Examples include at the end of articles, blog posts, on your website, and anywhere else that you can link to it. The more links you have to your fan page, the more your SEO will improve. Fan pages are really just another website and so the same SEO principles that apply to websites also apply to fan pages.

7. Insert links with your videos and with some of your content to your other websites. This can help boost the SEO of those sites. Be careful though that you do not overdo it as too many links can ruin the quality of your content.
