The Significance of Facebook Timelines

With the latest major change in Facebook being the Timelines feature many people have disapproved and so the introduction has proved to be somewhat controversial. This is not really an option more of an obligation to change. However the upside is that this new feature can be definitely used to your advantage when utilised and implemented in the right way for personal usage or your actual business.

Its almost like Facebook Timelines has now greater power and significance compared to the Facebook Fan Page system. It’s therefore important to clarify what’s on offer here and understand the benefits to you. The FB Timeline system presents it’s own opportunities and will prove to be beneficial to you and your business. Undoubtedly one of the main key factors is the traffic potential and the chance to have FB Fans and better still Super FB Fans. Naturally it all starts with the quality of your page, the Content and incentives you provide.

In order to get Facebook to work better for you please click here:

When you provide very good quality content on your Facebook Timelines Page, offer a free original topical ebook or free software you will attract the attention of more people. When you show genuine care for people they then will be increasingly interested in what you have to say as well as offer. Once people become a Fan of your business they are then more likely to recommend you to their friends and acquaintances. Encourage as many people as possible to click you’re ‘Like’ button. Once you have over 500 ‘likes’ it will triple your site visits. However once you exceed 1,000 ‘likes’ the traffic to your FB page is likely to increase by over 20 times.

You will be able to portray photographs, any personal and work history you care to share with your followers, Status updates, Business information, Promotions, Marketing information and anything else you’ve recorded in your profile. Any Friendships made will also be confirmed. Facebook Timelines replaces your old Profile and Wall. Consequently when people visit your unique Facebook URL (FB domain address) they will see the new Timelines Page (either now or when you make the change).

In order to get Facebook to work better for you please click here:

You can edit what appears on Timeline and who can see the information. There are 2 icons on every ‘T’ entry for making adjustments. This definitely helps with security and privacy. Having the ability to manage what individual people can and can’t see as well as filter gives you control. Thankfully you do have the ability to delete Content, Updates, and Images from your Timeline Page. If you don’t have Timeline yet on Facebook you will almost certainly be obliged to have it. Once it starts for you, you’ll then have a 7 day period in which to make any changes before it goes live for users to see. For those with limited information on their FB account this will not present a problem however for those who have a very mature account with exceptional amounts of information, updates etc then making any required changes within a 7 day period will be challenging.

After you have made the desired changes to your new Timelines including adding the permissions that you want, deleting or marking personal photos that you only want specific people to see, the one time set up will be established. Ongoing any new activity on your Facebook Timelines you’ll be editing and adding the permissions as you go. The main thing point here is that you will have all the required tools to make the changes. In the early days of Facebook you did not have the facility to make permission settings. As a consequence the old information is public to all by default. One of the other good features about Timelines is that you can specifically date an event or photo from the past so it has more context and purpose. You can also add life events past or present.

In order to get Facebook to work better for you please click here:

It should be especially noted that with Timelines you will now have a ‘Sticky’ feature which will enable you to keep one specific post at the top of your Facebook Page while you continue to update and add more posts. This is excellent when you want to direct people to a particular targeted message. Additionally you get complete access to Facebook’s analytics platform. This provides a great insight into your Facebook site activity.

Facebook Timelines is one of the biggest changes FB has so far made in its 8 year history to date. It has and will continue to be rolled out to users until every user has it. This feature is supposed to encourage you to be more active in portraying your life in a more open way. But now you will have the tools necessary to make the alterations, edit, delete etc virtually anything you want on your new Facebook Page. Although the jury is still out on Timelines it’s likely that there will be further changes to enhance the current features and make the system more ‘user friendly’.

Facebook is the world’s number no. 1 site for the uploading of photos and now with the advent of Timelines this is more likely to increase the activity. It’s a feature that I think promotes the addition of more images and every time the ‘budding artists’ seem to get more creative. We should all appreciate the imagination and uniqueness of the Facebook users who have and will feature their outstanding work on the new site. My advice is to persevere with Facebook Timelines for the next few months and see what transpires in the meantime. You may well be pleasantly surprised.

The True Value of Facebook

Due to the stratospheric demand in Facebook shares the company’s shares are set to soar in value. There are currently 901 million subscribers to Facebook itself and for the thousands or possibly millions of people initially looking to buy shares at the $38 launch purchase price the company value is expected to climb to over $104 Billion. After floatation the price you pay will depend on the Nasdaq market trading price. The opportunity is there for you to consider as to whether you want to own a small piece of the world’s largest social media company.

Facebook has launched on the New York Nasdaq and currently as I write the FB share price is trading at around $40.44. Undoubtedly the numbers are simply staggering and there is no sign that things will calm down anytime soon. This is one of the biggest ever US stock flotation’s. In the last few years before today’s launch of the public offering, insiders and early investors purchased hundreds of millions of shares in the company. The early investors (in some case with millions of FB Shares) are set to benefit to tune of many millions dollars should they decide to sell part or all of their shares.

By present estimations it will take around 3 years for Facebook, as a company to find it’s true market value. In the meantime Facebook must find sufficient interest from the corporate sector, generate strong revenues from the phenomenal Mobile sector as well as continuing to grow and profit more from Advertising. These are all very demanding and challenging tasks, which I believe Facebook will confront correctly, wisely and with the required results to maintain momentum in growth for the foreseeable years to come.

If you are a fan of Facebook then it’s definitely worth asking yourself the following questions: -

Will you invest in Facebook (if you have not already)?
Will the company achieve its most challenging goals?
Will Facebook be attractive enough to the corporate sector?
Will FB make great gains from the Mobile world?

The emerging markets of India, Brazil, Indonesia especially in addition to several other major growth markets combined represents tremendous future potential. These countries are especially enjoying unprecedented growth and they all have growing populations that are generally big fans of Facebook.

The current stock market valuation of $104 Billion is particularly interesting given that the company had a turnover of $3.7 Billion last year and profits of $1 Billion. What happens to the future valuation of the company will depend very much on overall performance, advertising revenue, corporate investment, cellular revenues and the 3 major growth countries. Watch the Facebook space to see what happens…

Google+ for Business Pages

Google+ continues to grow at lightning speed. Currently around 50 million people per month are joining which immediately confirms this particular social network as the fastest growing ever. People are clearly identifying with Google+ in a very positive way and clearly like the variety of user friendly options that this social media site has to offer.

The impressive birth, growth and rise of Google+ are clearly seen as a major rival especially to Facebook. Google+ has continued to evolve and change as new features are frequently being added. It is strongly advisable to have business pages on both Facebook and Google+ as many people use just one or the other. Your message especially will spread far and wide when you are active on both.

Social Media has become a phenomenal vehicle to promote your business. It is now one of the main resources to gain new Followers, get more Traffic and make more Sales. Additionally your business enjoys more recognition thereby increasing brand awareness. While Google+ is used for social networking in the conventional sense it is just as equally seen as a business networking forum. You business will definitely reap great benefits from being active on this platform. Working with the ‘Circles’ option allows you to categorise and compartmentalise people into different designated groups.

Google+ growth is likely to see this particular Social Network rise to the no. 2 position by August, 2012 if not sooner. It will then overtake Twitter and Linkedin and completely blow away Myspace and many other major social media sites. Monitoring the progress and meteoric rise of the most powerful of the social media sites is definitely an important factor in today’s world. You ignore social networking sites at the peril of your business!

Plan your strategy as to what you intend to do on Google+ in order to get the best results from the site. When you are properly organised, have interesting features on your ‘business page’, including attractive photos, images and well worded statements then you are more likely to interest more people. Also by showing interest in other peoples programs they then are more likely to show equal or possibly more interest in what you have to say. Offer a special ebook or something especially different to encourage new subscribers to your Google+ Pages site.

Google+ is a social network that you cannot ultimately afford to be without. So go and make the most of this giant in the social media world. You will not be disappointed when used correctly. It will take a little time to get used to the various options that are afforded to you but you will be rewarded for your patience. There are additional Google benefits potentially from an SEO perspective by using Google+ actively on a regular basis. Link your Google+ Page to your website and blog and back. This is likely to be seen as a positive move in Google’s eyes!
