Friend of mine has split his up & uses a mixture.

He only started this recently. I'll call in a favour & see what he suggests.

Also, double check with aspkin. He is Master Extraordinaire of website magic.

also fb pages are damn good, its better then being on ebay as ebay cant stop your transactions neither are you paying any fees, bad thing is not everyone can find you unless you know how and where to advertise lol

You can buy "likes" if you require.
General guide is £6 to £7 per thousand

but will those likes be centred to the brand that im selling?

for example im selling asian clothes, so is it worth me buying likes off profiles who are non asian? who will not wear these clothes ?

can you give me a cheaper one, as the cheapest i found was for £13 for 1000 likes in uk, plus it doesnt matter who likes it, as more likes mean my updates show more on peoples newsfeed who have already liked it :D

Likes will not on there own sell anything and you cannot target specific races of people .
What they will do is give your store credibility for any future viewers and make it seem more popular than it currently is.

that sounds good to me mate, for some reason in two days i gathered 55 likes and now ive just gone dead :(

FB is very hard to make money running ads. Very few do it successfuly.

People go to FB as a social site, however, people go to Google to search and buy something. Different mindset.

You can do well selling certain types of products on FB but it requires the right mindset and the right strategy.

you mean in the status page yeah, ive been doing that, ive got 250 likes in two weeks so seems to be working,

thanks

No I mean like in your auctions, "like us on facebook for more details of our items etc blah blah blah" like that!

What do you mean by status?

Sorry I speak American English, you are speaking British English! lol.

Do you mean the "about me" page? Cause auctions get more views, and people tend to read/view those and everyone sees that "F" with blue colors and know it's about facebook.

not a bad idea my friend, and status i was reffering to facebook lol, and its okay you cant tell difference from english from uk or usa unless you hear the accents lol

will do that in my auctions

thanks

GhostWhoWalks · #22 02-03-2013

Yeah it's not a bad idea dude! I just got over 800 views on my auctions in 3 days! So just think out of the 800 clients how many would join?

Oh like friends??? So the status on your wall? Don't involve family/friends + business unless you and your wife are working with each other or putting the kids into business some day to help out!

And yet I still get IDIOTS fighting over 1 auction when I got 49 others with 0 bids on it and and cheaper price!!!!!!!!! WHY!?!?!?!?!
