I have a page for myself, but I can’t seem to get my landing page to work. ;[

Jim: Sorry, but I don’t know anything about that. Maybe wait a week or so until the new changes go into effect – again!

I used to be confused by the Fan Pages and Groups but I like the direction that FB is now going with Pages. I also am glad they got rid of the “fan” tag as that just seemed odd to me to ask be to be a fan I am just now starting to use my page in conjunction with Twitter, my website, and LinkedIn. One of the things I really was happy to see was a way to link my online store with my FB Page and show products there. Hope to meet as many artists and art lovers out there!

Joe, Facebook must have heard you – they are updating the fan page layouts, and part of the new plan includes the ability to like and post on other pages as our page, not from our personal account. It’s says the upgrade will happen March 10th.

Alyson, I thought you and your readers would appreciate this, it illustrates just how GOLDEN an active Facebook Fan Page can be.

I was invited by a gallery in a touristy town to participate in this month’s art walk. In the invitation, the date was not mentioned. I went searching for that town’s art walk, and after a few clicks was brought to the Facebook Fan Page of another participating gallery in that town. I was not on the fans list of that gallery but I am now!

My Google search brought that fan page up on Page ONE of my search – because they are active and post regularly, and they had recently made a brief specific post about the art walk and the date.

Apparently Google not only loves active Blogs, it also loves active fan pages!! this is **definitely** something to keep in mind when updating a fan page — what search words might people be using (relevant to my business, event, etc) would bring new people to my fan page??

Thanks for the great info! I’m wondering if there is a way to post on others’ facebook pages as my art business and not my personal name (ie, as ‘Blue Boat Home Design’ and not ‘Joe Norman’. Any ideas?
