- Which features of Facebook, Twitter, and the other major social networks have perhaps slipped under our noses?
- We've put together a handy, comprehensive guide to help you understand the differences between the share and follow buttons/links for the top five social networks (Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Google+, and Pinterest) as well as how to implement them on your website, blog, and other content. You'll never have to Google instructions for individual buttons again!
- Let’s have a look at how these top 8 plugins will help you distribute your content. They are all free.
Text Transformation
- Make shrunken and tiny small text for Twitter, Linkedin, Facebook, and Myspace. These are pure characters, no HTML, CSS, or other markup is used. These superscript characters will work fine in Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and just about anywhere else on the Web.
- Forrester Research published a blog post and report on this topic, declaring that in January of 2015 Facebook will finally kill organic reach. In other words, folks will only see promotional content if it’s paid for. If your organization can afford paid advertising or is in a position to start fundraising for it, this might work for you. For nonprofits that don’t have the money for paid advertising, this could very well be the final blow.
- After years of pushing brands’ reach lower with one hand (and opening marketers’ wallets with the other) Facebook has finally announced the end of organic social marketing on its site. The social giant warned brands that “Beginning in January 2015, people will see less of this type of content [promotional page posts] in their News Feeds,” and admitted that brands that post promotional content “will see a significant decrease in distribution.”
- HOW TO: Set Up a Facebook Page
- How to Create Custom Tabs for Facebook Business Pages
- The Guide to Facebook Business Page Timelines (eBook)
- How to Tag People, Pages and Events on Facebook Using the @ Symbol
- How to share a link on Facebook (without sharing the actual URL)
- Delete the link after you paste it into the "What's on your mind?" box for a cleaner look.
- Facebook is now allowing page administrators to upload images to accompany external links they are posting on their pages, rather than being limited to the default, auto-generated thumbnail images the social network usually places with those posts.
- You’ve probably seen a few fun symbols like musical notes ♫, smiley faces ☺, or hearts ♥ posted to Facebook or Twitter. But did you know there are dozens of interesting, non-alpha-numeric characters you can use in status updates and tweets?
- Also see: Character Entity Reference Chart
Who Likes My Page?
- Best answer by Katja Koller:
- Go to your private profile and type in the fb search function "People who like <page name>".
- This will list you all likes + gives you a filter on the right hand side to even filter by Country, language, employer etc.
- Even though I would love to have an export function, this is at least better than nothing.

LinkedIn Limits
