Get Notifications on FB

If you have been using Facebook for any length of time and/or have been following my blog and FB feed, you know that only a small percentage of your fans actually see your status updates in their newsfeed. 
 
There are a number of ways to increase your reach included promoted posts, sponsored stories and of course, ads, though those are all paid options. Your fans can sign up to be notified of ALL of your status updates by going to your page and clicking on the 'LIKE' button (if they haven't already) and then hovering over the button, they will have the option to click on 'Get Notifications' and 'Show in News Feed'. 
 
These are FREE options you should encourage your fans to take advantage of - and please, if you haven't already done so, please sign up to receive MY FB Page notifications - I post useful content, links and tutorials like this daily - sign up so you don't miss any of them!
 

How to Post on Your Facebook Page as YOURSELF - a quick tutorial

 

Usually, when posting on your page, you want to be wearing your 'Business Page Persona'. For me, that is  LisaMarie Dias Designs rather than LisaMarie Dias. For others, it might be 'Blue Water Pools' vs 'Malcolm Smith'.  Most people have their default set to post as their page persona, whenever they are posting on their Page. This saves them time and hassle, as otherwise, they would have to keep clicking on the top bar to change back and forth.

 

But sometimes, you WANT to be able to post as YOURSELF, on your page. Whether it is to congratulate someone or to add a comment of your own to a post you started as your page.  If the default is set to post as a page, click here for the steps to re-set it so you are always posting as yourself unless you 'change personas'.
