Top Tips to Get More Likes and Fans on Your Facebook Page
So what should you do to get more likes and fans on your Facebook page? Too many people recommend too many different ways, many of which are not legit. Should you buy Likes from some site? DEFINITELY NOT! Should you run Facebook ads? You will need a hefty ad budget to do so and if you can’t commit the money to run the ads consistently you won’t see results.
So how do you get more likes and fans on your Facebook page? Well the best way is to create posts that inspire people to share your content. People love to share great content and when your fans’ friends see that great content, they too may share it, or even better, they may even like your page. It’s a win-win situation.
So how do you create content that excites people enough to share it? Here are 14 top tips to get more shares on Facebook.
1. Be consistent
Post 5 times a week so you’re “top of mind” for your fans.
2. Time it right
The best time to post will depend on the type of business you’re in.
3. Use eye-catching images
Images are the most shared piece of content on Facebook – and all social media for that matter.
4. Keep it short
Posts between 100 and 150 characters (fewer than 3 lines of text) see 60 per cent more likes, comments and shares than longer posts.
5. Be relevant
Your content should let your audience know that you know who they are.
6. Use your authentic voice
People are your fans and friends because they like what you do. Your voice on Facebook should be true to your brand.
7. Include a call-to-action
If you ask your fans to share, like or comment, they are more likely to do it.
8. Be creative with apps
Contest and promotion apps, along with forms, surveys, etc. can deepen users’ involvement with a business or brand.
9. Have a sense of urgency
Include up-to-minute tips and tricks, and whenever possible, dispel myths.
10. Offer value
Before you share something on Facebook, ask yourself if you think your fans will find value in the content.
11. Be entertaining
If your followers like funny memes or respond well to videos, take note. Use the type of media that works best for your audience.
12. Be educational
People love to share “how to” guides and tips.
13. Make a list
Lists of “Top 10 Ways to…” or “12 Can’t Miss Tips on…”, in the form of an infographic or a blog post are great for sharing.
14. Be seasonable
Tailor your content to the season or an upcoming holiday.
