Introduction
As of May 2012, Facebook has over 900 million active users. It’s no wonder everyone tells you to network on Facebook and get a Facebook Fan Page for your business.
Clearly, many of your prospects are already on Facebook, so it makes sense for you to join them there. However, just because you set up a Fan Page doesn’t mean your prospects are going to auto-magically find you. It’s not like you can set up a Fan Page tonight and wake up with 50,000 new fans tomorrow. It doesn’t quite work that way.
But that doesn’t mean it’s difficult to get fans. Not at all. Especially when you use the following 17 surefire ways for getting more Facebook fans.
Read on…
1. Optimize for the Search Engines
Google and other search engines crawl Facebook Fan Pages, which is why you should seek to optimize your content for these search engines. Here’s how…
Step 1: Discover the exact keywords your prospects are typing into Google.
You don’t want to guess what your prospects are searching for, because it does you absolutely no good to be ranked well in the search engines for words that no one is actually inputting into the search engines. Example: I could easily get to the top of Google for something like, “green and blue polka dot donuts,” but what would be the point? Virtually no one searches for phrases like that.
So what you need to do is use a keyword tool like WordTracker.com or MarketSamurai.com to find out what words your market is using right now to search for information, products and services. Generally, you just enter your broad keywords (like “gardening” or “homeschooling” or “bodybuilding”), and the tool will deliver dozens, hundreds or even thousands of relevant phrases back to you.
What you’re looking for are words that get a decent number of searches, yet they don’t have much competition in the search engines. These are usually long-tail keywords, which tend to be four or five words long (like “best organic pest control methods”). Individually, these words may not bring in a lot of traffic. But if you optimize for several of them, then collectively the traffic adds up.

Complete Illustrated Guide to Homemade Wine - describes and illustrates the simple step-by-step procedures for making perfect home-made win The concept of creating meals that are both simple and delicious presents a challenge for families of today. Simple meals sometimes resonate as one or two ingredients thrown haphazardly together. Delicious seems to fall by the wayside. This does not have to be the case, however, for today’s busy families. Combining simple and delicious is as easy as one, two, three – three ingredients, that is.
Where to Begin
Just about every family has one individual with, well let’s say, individual tastes – in other words; picky. It is important to begin your simple and delicious cooking with a three ingredients or less plan with something your pickiest of eaters will enjoy, as well. The most basic place to start is in evaluating your family members’ desires and tastes. While you do not want to appear as a full-service restaurant, you do want to present meals that will have “something for everybody” on the menu.
Something for Everybody
1. Take Inventory – Start your simple and delicious cooking by taking inventory of your family members’ tastes, likes, and dislikes. For example, if one person is a pasta enthusiast while another is a chicken lover, see if incorporating those two ingredients would work for both of them. Make a list of each family members’ likes and dislikes so you will know beforehand what to add and what to stay away from, as well.
2. Ask Every Family Member for Input – Do not try to take this project on yourself and on your own. Sometimes even the best intentions are misconstrued when it comes across as controlling or demanding. Asking for everyone’s input and truly taking those thoughts into consideration when preparing meals can make all the difference between acceptance and rejection.
3. Spice it Up A Lot – When you come up with a list of two or three ingredients that you wish to play with, do not forget to invest in a good set of spices. You can even begin by growing your own herbs to incorporate into the recipes. Once again, ask for some suggestions from family members. Your children may crave some southwestern spices or even Indian spices, but have never indicated that they wish to try on these flavors. You never know; their input may actually help you to put your meals together.
