Today sees Jeremy and Jeanne setting up a Facebook Fan page. Now Jeanne already has a Facebook page and is already an avid user, but she doesn’t have an actual Fan Page at this stage, so Jeremy takes her (and us) through the steps of setting one up.
Jeremy goes on to say that one of the biggest reasons to have a Fan Page is that you’re able to mass email all of your friends through it, as well as being able to have more than 5000 fans (your normal Facebook page/profile will only support up to 5000 fans). Apparently another reason is that you are able to tell what your demographics are when it comes to your fans which, I guess, makes it easier to market yourself to them.
I won’t go into the details of setting up the page, as you can most likely find some tutorials out there that can help you. I will say though that apparently it is important to name your page properly, as you have no say over changing it when it comes to advertising/promoting the page.
Jeremy talks about the various settings you can use (geotargeting, age restrictions etc.), the settings for your wall (user generated content for instance), settings for your default landing page, and various applications that you and your users can use.
After typing in a little information about what the Fan Page is all about, we’re all set to go! Unfortunately for now though we’ve come to the end of the video, so all of the optimization of the Fan Page will have to wait until the next video is up.
Until then, bye for now….
