How to get like noticed on Facebook - Advertising your business

An easy way to Facebook receive likes, people talking about this and number of people were here on your Facebook business, community and fan page.

In this previous post, also wanting to add a few additional tips, I had touched on how you can receive a large number of likes on Facebook by joining like sharing groups and a few that I am a member of are:

Likes
Seo-Smm-FB like,Share-Google +1's-Digg-Twitter and much much more
Facebook Fan Page Exchange Club
Business Fan Page Like Exchange


To also get noticed on Facebook is by uploading photos on your page and getting people to comment on them.  As you can see, this is how it looks on Elizabeth's Digital Business Cards timeline so far:
How this is done is first getting the likes by joining the above groups and than next uploading a photo.  One of the popular things that people share in these groups are photo like sharing.  What was done here is that a photo of one of my digital business card creations was converted to a photo and uploaded to my timeline.  Next, hiding the photo and than advertising it on the above groups and pages allows me to post them in the timeline.  This allows users to like a photo on your timeline, allows them to leave their own page links, giving my site a higher user rating.  Users enjoy doing this and it helps in receiving more likes to your Facebook page and is also a great advertising campaign incentive.

Because this blog is all about how to earn more visitors to your site without paying anything, I am going to tell you another way of doing this by creating a digital business card. Next you are going to learn how to distribute that business card and earn more hits to your website/blog at no charge. Business cards are great incentive for advertising your business, yet, can be quite expensive when printing and passing them out.  Next the business card will usually be reused for having a telephone number written on the back of it and next, shoved deep into somebodies wallet.

Once you import the business card into google docs, in the top right corner is a share button.  Click on that and you will see that there is the option to share your business card document in, Gmail, Facebook, Twitter and Google Plus.  The best way to upload your business card is in a PDF format, this way it is protected from being edited and most websites support the PDF format.

Create your own personal customized images for each blog posts, Facebook cover and blog title - attract the attention of more visitors

In a few previous posts on this blog it has been suggested that Cooltext.com for creating images for your sites as an option.  Since than Cooltext has added some new features for easily creating eye catching buttons, logos and if you know how to work with art a bit custom made images for your website/blog.

A personal favorite is cooltext's Symbol Logo which is what was used to create my brand new blog title, along with this post's image.  There are three options on cooltext's website for creating the Symbol logo.  The eye is created using the first option called Symbol and the words are created using three of the several differant fonts that Cooltext offers.  One of my favorite fonts to use is the Dingbats font, which is what I used here on this Blog's Title.  If you wish not to use a word in the title of Line Two or Three on Cooltext Symbol Logo, there is an option to choose from one of the dingbats font, such as the light bulb image on the left of this blog''s title "Ideas about starting a home based business from blogs".

On this blog post, the above image was also created using the Symbol Logo on Cooltext's website.  A few other images created using cooltext.com are profile images for my Facebook business pages, you can view the Business Profile for this blog by clicking here.  These images for Facebook's Cover Photo is a little more difficult to finagle because the image requires to be 850x315 pixels.  After creating your image on Cooltext you will need to open it in photo editor program, such as Gimp or Photoshop, than scale the image to 850x315.  This isn't easy because the image will lose it's quality forcing it to be redone several times before the image looks presentable.  As you can see from mine, the image on my Facebook Cover is still not quite perfect and is still being worked on at the moment.

How do I get readers to like my blog in FaceBook?

Ever wonder how people with an uninteresting site manages to get three thousand, seven hundred eleven likes on their Facebook page?


Deciding that it was time to figure out just how bloggers were getting so many readers to like their sites, it was time to investigate and take a look around Facebook to see if there were any like exchange pages on Facebook.  Sure enough there were two that I discovered and joined, one being a group and the other just is readers exchanging likes in comments.  Unfortunately not everybody returns the favor but feels free to ask for the like but the ones who do is what is the most helpful.

In a previous post, click here to read more, I wrote about creating a separate Facebook account from my personal Facebook account.  This is helpful when groups and playing games, so that messages, likes and close friends does not get mixed up.  You can and will make a mess of your Facebook account in the begging until you get the hang of things, that is why it is strongly suggested that you try to keep everything separate from each other.

Since the start of using the Facebook exchange group, my Google Adsense and visitor rates have gone right through the roof in just a few short days.  This group here, Likes, is great for obtaining new Facebook, since Facebook's new policy will disable your friend request ability whenever you request to many friends and a certain number of people complain they do not know you.

The two following groups will accept your join request immediatly so that you can start posting your websites, facebook fan pages and other sites that you wish to share.

Advertise your blog, website and business simply when playing games Facebook games!

This sounds crazy but it is true, interacting with your friends on facebook through Games and applications is actually a great way of advertising your site.

About six months ago, while using my FaceBook account,  it came to my attention that having over six hundred friends was making it very difficult to keep track of what was going on with my FaceBook account.  The games that were being played was getting jumbled up with what my friends and family were posting in the newsfeeds.  Also, there were the people on my friends list that were more acquaintance then actually friends whose photos, videos and Farmville postings were mixing up with people on my friends list who's personal information was more of an interest than the ones that play Farmville.

That is when I decided to create a second account for just my friends, family and coworkers, it made the ease of Facebook much better for me and on my personal account all games and applications are blocked.  My old account is mainly used for playing games on and my new account is for interacting with my closest friends.  To create a second Facebook account, you will need a second email address since Facebook does not accept the same email address for two accounts. 

A problem I ran into started when both accounts had the same profile picture on it and it was beginning to really get confusing, for myself and my closest friends. A few weeks ago after updating my old Facebook profile by changing the profile name and picture, click here to view my new profile, it made things so much easier.  Instead of using my name, I use my blog name, Elizabeth's Miscellaneous Topics along with the blogs URL imprinted on the bottom of my profile picture.  Also for the new timeline feature I have created a logo with the name of my blog and the url to my blog.

To view my Facebook Photo Cover Timeline click here for an example.  What was done first is the logo was created using cooltext's free logo creation site.  Next using Gimp, a photo editor that comes with Linux, I opened the logo and resized it to 850x320.  Not all logos will look good after they are created using CoolText.com so you will have to probably select a size that works for you several times before it comes out right.
 
Now when playing games, such as Farmville and Hidden Chronicles, people see my blog name and business logo and it will always stick in their head.  At the same time I am interacting with people on my facebook friends list by playing games, giving my business a more personal touch without having to spam.

Because of Facebook's new policy when requesting friends in which you are not allowed to randomly request friends you may not know, you can click here to view my timeline profile add me to your friend list!

Can using a custom google search on my website, blogger or even in a blogpost be beneficial?

You may have noticed the option Google offers for using their search engine for different uses, such as, for searching the entire world wide web, only your blog/website or a choice of search options you would like the reader to discover by setting up a choice of sites that will show up when the user does a search.  How can you make this beneficial to you or even waste your time setting one up when it feels as if nobody is using it.

If your site is one that is offering a large variety of games, wallpapers or website skins, it is obvious that having the option of allowing the user to search your site for what they need makes the Google Custom Search useful.  Google search engine does earn revenue in the same way that you earn revenue from Google adsense and YouTube videos through the advertisements.  The question is, how can a regular blogger like ourselves find use of a custom Google search engine?  It almost seems useless to have it on your site, that is not the case and let me explain an example of how a custom search can be profitable and work for you in just a simple blog post.

A few days ago prior to this post on my personal blog, Elizabeth's Miscellaneous Topics,  I created a post called: The trick of digging up dirt on somebody at no cost, explaining how you can do a search for people, free of charge, using Google's search engine.  In that post is a Custom Google Search engine at the end giving the reader the option to try out the topics that I am speaking about.  If you have not visited the link than here it is again so that you can get a better understanding of what I am talking about before reading on in this post.

As you can see the search engine is available right in the blogpost and people can now do a search.  What is neat about that post is that it is also has people try out my suggestion of doing a search for "Elizabeth's Miscellaneous Topics".  This will also make a possiblilty of that blog coming up in Google's Trends if enough readers try it out.

Learn how to add a custom search engine to your Google blogpost:

Have Fun and Good Luck!

Google Blogger templates - Eyecandy for your site

After being stubborn and sticking with the same look, I changed my other two bloggers, Elizabeth's Miscellaneous Topics and Ideas About Starting A Home Based Business From Blogs, styles and looks. The Picture Window template is a personal favorite of mine with it's colors and scrolling options.  Once you get into customising how you want your sidebars, fonts and colors it will be hours before you decide which eyecandy you prefer, yet, it still will be difficult to come to a complete decision.

Why it became time to change my blogs layout and looks was because of the heavy scripting that was entailed when the blogs were first designed in 2009.  It was brought to my attention, from quite a few people, with the Facebook Login button not working properly with the google blogs.  After doing research and coming up with nothing helpful, it became apparent that when editing the HTML on the blogs it caused a conflict with the Facebook Login Button working correctly.  Unfortunately for those of you who have particular layouts starting from scratch is probably your best bet.  Just backup your old blogger template and use one of the Templates offered by blogger.  From there you will probaly have to re-add anything that you entered in your blogs HTML code, such as your OpenId through Symnatic Verisgn or the authentication code you entered via Networked Blogs.

Here are a few free useful tips and sites that will help you increase traffic to your site:

Some ways to advertise you business and website for free

Free Tip:  When viewing your google adsense account in Classic mode using Firefox/Mozilla, the page is blank.  This is because some Adblock Plus included with Firefox is blocking the scripts google uses for adsense.  Go to your Google Adsense account than on the Menu select, Tools --> Adblock Plus and disable on Google.com.


Occasionally, while doing a Google search for business you will run across a website that the business is listed on.  A few that comes to mind is YellowPages, AT&T Solutions and Yahoo Local Listing.  What is amazing is I stumbled across these sites by accident while searching for information about other businesses.  Once the information was discovered, so was the fact that the sites listing the company was in fact a great place to list my own Ideas About Starting A Home Based Business From Blogs, Elizabeth's Blogger Wikis and Elizabeth's Miscellaneous Topics blogsites.  These little things are important in earning visitors so that I can earn more money with my Google Adsense Account.

The moment I come across a site that allows me to list my own site for free, immediately, before it slips my mind, I will sign up and enter my own URLS.  Daily, because of doing this my blog receives more and more visitors.  It takes me probably an hour a day going through google searches before the jackpot is hit.  Than is the process of signing up, adding the information needed to obtain visitors to my site and submitting the URLs for approval.

How you can have a Facebook Groups to promote your blog, website and business!

"Free business website and blog advertisement tips using Facebook's group option.  Free Google Blogger Tip:  When creating Groups, Applications and other Facebook site promotional items, use your logo so that your readers and fans become familiar with it".


Approximately a year ago Facebook launched their option where you can create a group and add your friends to it.  The option can be profitably for a small business just starting out, especially since, when used in moderation, is a great way to freely advertise your business.  The downside, anybody can invite you to a group they created and use it to spam their business with but low and behold if you visit the Facebook Group Help Center, there is an explanation on how to leave that irritating group.  Later in this post I will explain how you can avoid receiving unwanted emails from these groups that you wish not to join and how you can select the groups that you would like to be notified when somebody posts to a favorable group that you created or joined.

Once you have created your group for your company and added the friends you wish to be members you want to now post to the group.  This is especially handy to use whenever a new post is created on your Google blog.  After a post is created all the members in your group will receive an email notifying them that the site you are promoting has been updated.  When doing this though, take into consideration that updating and posting to your group is going to cause you to lose your audience.  If posting excessively throughout the day make you think that you are drawing a large audience to your sight, you are wrong, it will only cause you to lose Facebook group members and friends.

Like myself, when I awaken in the morning to check my emails and see somebody added me to a useless group and than spammed it, the good news is, there is a way around that.  You can change the group settings in your Account Settings --> notifications --> Groups and select how you want to be notified via the groups. 
Step 1: account settings



Step 2: Notification

Step 3: Group Settings

Once you create your own private, join a group or are added to a group of interest, from there you have the option to setup how you want to be notified in the group individually.  As you can see from my settings above all notifications are disabled.  In my personal group, Ideas about starting a home based business from blogs, notifications are enabled.  This way people can add me to as many groups as they wish but notifying me of anything is useless.  Unfortunately, until Facebook finds a way for people to have the option to not be added to groups without their permission, you will have to go through and remove yourself from groups occasionally to quite often depending on the size of your Facebook friends list.

Top 20 highest paying Adsense Keywords of 2012

"AdSense is a contextual Cost per click (CPC) based ad network run by Google.  In last year Google made $33.3 billion in revenues."

Since this is a CPC based system, it has an unique determination to figure out the cost of each particular click through.  Occasionally, for competition, the cost of a keyword may become too high (about $50 to $60 Per-Click). Here is a list of the twenty most expensive keywords offered by adsense.  Although I cannot confirm if these are accurate, there has been an occasion where a click through on my own site was a nice amount.

    Promote your business for free - some cool free tips

    It has been awhile since my last post to this blog but now that I am back and going strong with some new, free and excellent ideas on promoting your website and business for free.  A few thing you may have noticed but never really gave thought to in the past are when you are searching for images via Google's images.  When you hover your mouse over an image after searching and below the image are descriptions, such as what the image is and sometimes if the person is smart, they will also in that image description enter their site URL.

    Some time ago, on this blog, I mentioned about my own Google personal website, Internet Cash Information. Although this site has been inactive for some time now and nobody ever visits anymore it still has a very good use to it.  At the end of the URL when the word images is entered a list of images that has been uploaded to the site shows up.  So for example my site is https://sites.google.com/site/internetcashinformation/images to access the image location.  Next when an image is upload below the upload window is a place where you can enter a description.  This is another awesome free way of advertising your business and website.

    Lastly, as most of you know, Google has done away their Buzz and it is now Google+, their new social network like FaceBook.  When you are searching in Google search, as you may have noticed, there is now a 1+ option that you can click to share the site.  You can also add this 1+ button to your site just like the popular twitter retweet and Facebook like buttons, see mine below.  The google+ is one of the hundreds of free ways of leaving your blogprint in the search engines.

    After doing a bit of a search in Google's search engines for website submission sites my Google Blog Sites to the search engines.  Searchenginez is a free site that will submit to Google, AOL, MSN and Yahoo for free.  If you Google the keywords "free website submission", there are sites that will lists hundreds of free sites but Searchenginez is the one needed for the most important search engines.  Searchenginez also has a couple of nifty free tools for search engines , such as, spider simulator to see which sites are crawling your URL.  Searchenginez does not list Ask.com, but you can also submit to Ask's search engine for free.

    On the left panel of this Blog, there are social network buttons, linkedln and twitter follow @bethnesbitt and below are custom share buttons.  You can add your own Linkedln by opening an account, if you already haven't done so, on Linedln and installing the Linkedln badge on your own site.  A google search for the right twitter follow button to suite your own site preferences will, of course, will give you plenty choices.

    Finding what readers want and blogging about it

    How did I get over Two Hundred visitors on a few of my select blogs overnight?

    Sharing a common interest so that when you blog about it other's can relate, this is foremost important.  A common interest, such as a game, religion or a type of business, than you need to find a popular interest.

    One example is a blog I created just over a month ago about a popular game on facebook called "FarmVille".  The blog's name is FarmVille's Tips & Tricks and just by one day finding a useful tip in the game, overnight people who tried the tip, found it worked shared it with other facebook friends who shared it and it spread like wild fire.  The blog went from 10 visitors to over 100 a day and is growing by the day just because of the little tip.

    Another thing that keeps my readers on my blog a little longer is the marquee script in blogger.  This is the easiest html you will ever add to a blog, click here to see how to add scrolling marquee text to your blog, every time somebody sits and reads a line of marquee you will earn from your Google adsense.  Click here to see the post that has earned me over 200 visitor hits daily across my four blogs.

    Another blog I have is my Elizabeth's Miscalleneous Topics, which has a large variety of topics, Youtube videos, news and other things that interest me and are hot google trending topics of the day, week or even month.

    Ways to earn from your Google blog

    There are a few ways you actually earn money from your blog.  If you ever noticed that sometimes you have a few pennies here and there on some days and than non on others?  This is because somebody left you a comment and depending on the blog the comment can be worth more.  The higher the page rank of your blog, the more the comment is worth, although, I am unsure of the exact amount.

    Another way that you earn money from your Google blog is, each time a reader follows your blog.  This, of course, also depends on the page rank of your blog.  If you blog does not have a rank of any type, then you will not earn and the lower the rank the less the money.  Nobody is exactly sure of how much you earn since it probably depends on topics, advertisements and other Google terms of earning on your site.

    Now you ask, how do I get a higher page rank?  Well you need to receive comments and visitors to your blog.  For every 1,000 actual visitors your page rank will go up, and for every so many comments left on your blog, your rank will also increase.  Now how do you get visitors to your blog is the next question, social networking is one way.  Unique topics is another way and if you can think of a topic before anybody else and it ages this will possibly give you leverage in being found via a Google search.  Another way to earn is having interesting topics on your blog and receiving click through.  Each time somebody clicks a link to another topic on your blog, you will earn and of course this depends on your blogs page rank.

    Through out my blog are various topics on how I have received visitors to my blog, with a little hard work and reading of course, but it works.  Everything here is free of charge so feel free to use anything and good luck!

    Several ways to receive visitors to your blog via facebook

    Sunday I decided it was time to find new options to find ways to get more visitors to my blogs and it has been awesome!  First off, props to facebook for making it possible for us little people to get our blogs noticed, even if it is only 50-100 a day, that is better than 2-10 a day like before.

    We know about the like buttons and share buttons you see on blog posts, you can read this post, "Going all the way, how to make the perfect social networking buttons for your blogs".  This post offers the script and how to add it to your blogger HTML.  That seemed to help me receive visitors, a little bit more but not much.  Now I went up to about 15-20 per day, this was not going to cut it so I decided to add a login button to my blog, success now I am up to 25-30 a day, yet....I needed more.

    That is when I decided to create my blog pages on facebook, here is my list of pages:

    Ideas about starting a home based business from blogs - On FaceBook
    Farmville Tips & Tricks
    Elizabeth's Opinionated News Topics
    Elizabeth's Blogger Wikis

    You can create Websites, applications and fan pages for your blogs/websites.  There is even more to facebook that many do not know about, getting into network blogs.  Not just simply posting the network blogs badge on your site and hoping that somebody clicks on it to follow but really interacting with it.  Networked blogs has a discussion board and if you want to watch your visitor count go up just by interacting back and forth than click here to interact on Network blog's discussion board.

    You can post your blog on it and you may get a few hits but if you visit other blogs, leave comments, follow blogs that you haven't followed and do this daily your hits will go up.

    Going all the way - Create your facebook app and promote your blog

    Facebook is the largest and most popular with almost social networking sites out there.  Totaling a number of approximately 500,000,000 users, there are so many people, places and things that you can do with facebook, it can be mind boggling.

    Interacting with facebook is one of the best and most successful ways in getting started with your business.  Interaction on any social network will get you started, even if you prefer myspace.  What is nice about facebook though is the type of interaction they have compared to other social networks, which is why it is #1 in social networking in the first place.  Facebook has application makers, games, chat, advertising, I could just go on and on.

    A few of these FaceBook applications are, Networked Blogs, Social Plugins and Applications.  These are ways to promote your sites, each site seperatly and earn more visitors daily.  Setting them up is time consuming and you need plenty of patience, but the rewards are worth it.

    Networked Blogs - Facebook has a blog network, different bloggers from all over networked together to read share each other's blogs.  Networked blogs also has a follow button that you can use to have readers follow your blog.

    Social Plugins - Create your own button for your blog, like buttons, like boxes, facebook connect buttons and a few others.

    Applications - Create your own application that people can use with facebook.  Farmville, petsville and many other are just naming some of the thousands of popular facebook applications that millions of users use daily.

    FaceBook Login Button - Your own professional looking Facebook Login Button.  Enable users to login to your website/blog using the facebook connect button and get the look and feel of professionalism.

    If you look in my sidebar you can see that I have started my own fan page for my Ideas about starting a Home based business from Blogs.  This is a great way to advertise to people, you can even send out broadcasts to users to visit your blog everytime you update your site.  My point is, if you haven't gone deep into facebook's applications, now is the time to do so if you need and want to become a successful business entrepreneur.
