Facebook page SEO optimization
-
Hi, how could I optimize Facebook page for SEO? how can I get a title like this: Brand | Facebook in the Search Result pages?
-
Excellent! Thanks Richard!

I understand. It comes down to the type of Facebook page you decide to use for your business - this is going to be a double edged sword for how you want the title to look and your local SEO objectives.
If you choose to build a "brand" page in facebook then the tittle tag will automatically appear as you want it ( **Brand Name | Facebook ). **But these brand pages do not carry any local SEO value because it is not tied to a physical location. This is often used by large national companies that don't have physical locations. Also alot of small local businesses have this style of page because they set it up wrong to start with, I've had many clients like this.
If you select a local business page, then it appears as I mention above (Brand Name - Location - Category | Facebook). The presence of your NAP (name, address, & phone #) aligns with your local SEO effort.
So if your goal is Local Search Optimization, you need to stick with the local business page style on Facebook. Switching to a brand page would hurt your rankings. Optimizing for Local Search is not going to always be pretty.
Hope that helps! Good Luck.

Thanks Richard. Is for Local Search, but i didn´t undertand the part of Facebook NAP.
When I search "X Company Facebook" in Google, the organic results shows:
Brand Name ** | ** Facebook
I want to know how can I optimize my page so when people search my company + Facebook, they see that type of title without the location and category fields, because right now when I search my company + Facebook, the page title looks like this:
Brand Name- Mexico City, Mexico.......-Facebook
Thanks!

Little bit of a strange question. Are you trying to optimize the page for Local Search or just general SEO?
As far as the page title for your Facebook page, you have very little control. Facebook is in control of the page title since it's under their domain. The typical format for Facebook Business Page titles is :
Brand Name - Location - Category | Facebook
As for Local Search, the page title on your Facebook page does not really play a part. Having your Facebook NAP and other info match that of your Google+ and other listings is the primary factor.
For General SEO, having a facebook page that points back to your brand and regular sharing of blog post can help optimize YOUR website.
Hope that helps.

Facebook Likes gone through the roof
Howdy, We have seen our Facebook Likes increase by a staggering 20k in a week. At the beginning of last week we were sat at around 21k and it has been steadily increasing, but just 7 days later we now have 42k - Has their been some sort of algorithm change for this to happen, or should I be suspicious that something is not quite right? Thanks, James

Getting Connections to Follow LinkedIn Company Page
I've just started a freelance contract with a client promoting their content over social media, primarily Twitter and LinkedIn. As I've started to manager their accounts, I noticed they have set up both a personal LinkedIn page under the company name as well as a Company Page. The "personal" account has 330 connections but the Company Page only has 17 followers. Has anyone had success with a good strategy for quickly and effectively promoting the Company Page to the personal connections? I'd like to actually migrate the connections over to the Company Page, which should be the primary focus. Thanks for any help.

Is social media going to be the king of SEO?
Hi, Bit of a discussion really, every article out at the moment talking about SEO mentions how Social Media will take over in 2013. Is this really the case, should every SEO be focusing a large amount of time of Social Media? Far as im concerned I do a few things, try and build the social lists on different networks such as Facebook & Twitter also trying to get the list to engage with my posts and secondly social sharing from onsite content. Thats it at the moment.

Constantly randomly rejected Facebook ads, how to solve this?
Im pulling my hairs out literally, Facebook has been constantly rejecting my ads, throwing away All the work it took the campaigns to set them up. This is getting frustrating since I allways get the same "image" reason. What bothers me is the themes are similar to previously approved ads and I for one cannot find a reason on their lists for the rejection. So I was thinking of just resending the same ads with a higher bid, to test if they approved them or not, but don't know how this will work. Is there a way to contact them to actually tell you what they think was wrong? Is there a chance to file a complaint for the rejection of the same ad with different targeting just on different dates? Im really really stressed out since ive lost 10hours of work dealing with this constant rejection nonsense.
