Keeping Up with the Fundamental Changes to Your Facebook Business Page

Have you been keeping up with the fundamental changes to your Facebook business page? These changes have taken place in the last few months, and have significantly altered the user experience. Recently, a client asked me to help her make a few simple adjustments to her business page. It it took us the better part of an hour to make those simple adjustments.

Ways to Appreciate Others on Facebook and LinkedIn

One of the many things people ask me is to show them ways to appreciate others on Facebook and LinkedIn. In this post, I’ll focus on ways that relate to your business relationships with others, rather than your personal relationships.

Older Adults – You Can Stay Safe on Facebook While Enjoying Yourself

To my fellow older adults – you can stay safe on Facebook while enjoying yourself! As we approach the holiday season, we are likely to be spending even more time than usual on Facebook.

Many Benefits of Participating in Facebook Groups

There are many benefits of participating in Facebook Groups. Over time, Facebook has changed the rules on how many people see the posts on Facebook business pages. Therefore, more business people are becoming more active in Facebook groups to reach a wider audience. Some groups are associated with an organization that meets in real life. (Or for now, that group may be meeting virtually.) Some business people may offer exclusive Facebook groups for their clients. Still other groups might be for people in a shared industry. In my case, I've been part of all these kinds of groups and see [...]

How to Stop Following Facebook Friends and Business Pages

Have you wanted to know how to stop following Facebook friends and business pages? Unfollowing a Facebook friend allows you to stop receiving posts without unfriending them, which can be awkward.

If this happens, the person may wonder why you are on that list, being they thought the two of you are already friends.

Frequency of Facebook Posting

Sometimes it’s difficult to determine the frequency of Facebook posting. There are some general guidelines for how frequently to post on a business page. Yet, I’ve not seen much guidance on how often to post on one’s personal page. In many ways, the best way to determine frequency of Facebook posting is to use common sense. Just like you wouldn’t want to dominate conversation at a social or business gathering, don’t post too often on Facebook. Do your best to add posts that create interest or add value in some way to those who read them.   Posting on Your [...]
