POSTS

Which POST is BEST POST

Hi again,  Here we are and getting really close to the finish of Facebook Fan Page  Insights and how to use them to build a natural fan base.... Let's get right to it ...


The next category on the Insights section is : POSTS   This category contains a record of all the posts
you have created in the last several month period and are shown in your time zone .... This way you will be able to see what day of the week and time of the day your posts are receiving the most traffic...
As you track this information over a few weeks you will find what your Fans / Followers like the most..

Here is the First or Top section in the Posts Category :   the top three arrows on the left point to links

that when clicked on will open up for more detailed information ...

As you move your cursor over the graph you will be shown more detail about the posts and the views..

Here is the picture of the Second / Bottom section in the Posts Category :  All Posts Published over a several month period ... As you scroll down the page more posts history will be shown ...

 

This section of  category Posts is color coded and shows which posts you have created are visited how many times, as well as, the amount of interactions each has had ....

The small arrow shows the link area you can click on that will show you the exact post and what it contained...

The Larger arrow shows where to move your cursor over and the information for organic / paid views

Facebook offers paid ads for each post, however: if you are consistent in your insight studies it is possible to build a natural increase without paying for ads....

in the REACH category  as you scroll down the page your will find different graphs and each gives a large amount of information ...

The top graph is :The number of people who saw our post ....

 

The Second section in the REACH category is :  Likes, Comments, and Shares...These actions will help you reach more people   ( On the far right hand side of each section where the arrows are .... click on those links as well for more information)

 

 

 

The Third section in the REACH category is: Hide, Report as Spam, and Unlikes..These actions will decrease the number of people you reach

 



 The Fourth section in the REACH category is: Total Reach ..The number of people who saw any activity from your page including posts, posts by other people, Page like ads, mentions, and check-ins.

LIKES

LIKES on Facebook Fan Page

Hi and welcome to the study of Facebook study  LIKES ....

Facebook has created a wonderful tool to help us learn how to build LIKES on our page. These Tools are a great source of training information when understood and used...

In your SSS team previous post we taught how to find the Insights and the Overview section...

Here is the link to that post for those of you who missed it.

http://sharingsocialstuff.blogspot.com/2014/02/analytics.html

TIP:  when you subscribe to SSS blog you will be notified every time there is a new post available in the training ...

The first category in the Insights section is titled LIKES ...

Here is a screen shot of a sample graph... similar to what you will find on your page ... However, note the graph will change according to how your LIKES grow ...

 

 

On the far right hand side toward the middle of the section your will see "Total Page Likes". Click on that for more information ... Click on it a second time to go back to the previous view...

                                                                             

The second section of the LIKES category is found by simply scrolling down the page ...

This section will tell you about the LIKES and UNLIKES that have happened on your page... Again on the far right side of the page you will see links to click on that will give you more information as well...

TIP:  Unlikes are expected to happen as fans will change their minds and decide they have other interests... DO NOT let this  concern you as long as your page LIKE over a long period of time are showing a steady growth...

The Last section of the LIKES category is at the very bottom of the page and contains still more information ..

this section in where your LIKES came from and is the most important to study ... It will give you ideas on where to share and  post to gain new fans attention.....

Most important is don't give up ... Keep trying new things and always remember our Motto..

SHARING IS CARING

(Here is your SSS team Created tutorial for these first two steps)

After you have created your page, you will find that it looks very  different than a personal page and has ALOT more information on it ... at the top of the page will be information that will be wonderful to study and tell you what your fans are liking the most and why they come back ...

Sharing is Caring

Sharing is Caring in Social Media

We all know and understand what it means to share in the real physical
world... When you are sharing in the SM (social media) world it means
something a little different ...

Sharing on SM is a action of "spreading information".  It can be simple
text or it can be pictures, video, recipes, designs, links or  just about anything
you can think of...

When you or an other person posts something on a SM site. That post
can be attached by a friend and shared  to their friends and in turn
their friends can attach that bit of information and share with their friends and
so on and so on
.
This is the track that makes things  go "viral" ... The faster a bit of information
is "Shared" the more people in the world see it and this is how the term
"Gone Viral" has been created ...

Sometimes when a bit of information "Goes Viral" is can make a big enough
wave that the person that originally posts or created the post can earn fame,
money and /or popularity ...

Now we understand about sharing ... lets touch a bit on the "Caring" part
of "SHARING is CARING"

 When we are in close contact with another person and they are trying to
 "get the word out".

Maybe they are having a fundraiser and need to let a lot of people know
 in a short period of time, and you want to help them to be a success.
This is where the "SHARING is CARING" comes into play..

It truly means that you care enough about the other person to see them
be successful in getting their message out and you help them by Sharing
with your friends and getting your friends to Share with Their friends
and so on and so on ....

Therefore.    SHARING is CARING ... and a way to show that you want
to help...

This is the reason  SSS was created ....Our team wants to make
a difference ... We are here to Help ...

Remember our Motto:  SHARING is CARING

BEST FRIENDS

Best Friends and Social Media

 

Social Media is good and bad for Best Friends....We can share our good times

as well as our struggles on SM sites..  This is a beautiful thing as long as we

 remember,  ALL people, anywhere will be allowed to see what we have Put out there.

 

There are ways to share with just a few friends and even with only one person

BE aware and think about what your want everyone on this planet to know

about you ... Before you post / blog / share ....

 

Remember ~ as well, your Best Friend will be watching and without the use

of body language and vocal tones ... Things we say are easily misunderstood..

 

Use emoticons and smiley faces   :)  and Happy words often and with much kindness

and people will come to know you as a bearer of good visits and want to

spend more time with you ....

 

If you need to know how to restrict you sharing / posting / thoughts to just

a chosen few... Please leave a comment and our wonderful SSS team will

be more than happy to put together answers for you ...

 

Come back often ... We are here to help and will be happy to share

tips and ideas for sites you may have questions about ...

 

Remember the SSS motto :  Sharing is Caring

RED Flags

Red Flags

All of us know what it means when we see a RED FLAG....
Stop.... Wait....Something's up

It is the same with SOCIAL MEDIA as well ....

The best advice We can give about being "safe" on all social media sites
is   IF IT SEEMS TO GOOD TO BE TRUE ~ IT IS TO GOOD TO
BE TRUE"

Trust what your heart tells you while you are meeting new people ...
and ALWAYS remember ... If someone steps "over the line"
Block them or unfriend or unfollow or all of those things ... Don't
take the time to "try and place nice" ....

Allow every person to choose their own consequences..

Once you are prepared to watch for RED flags ... and take action as
needed your experience will become wonderful and rewarding and you
will meet and make friends with people you never thought possible ...

Come back often ... Our trained SSS team is here to help and on each
post we will address problems and give some "Free tips" to Help you
experience  the joy of the Social Media dance with your Global Friends

Love of Being Social

Being Social

The Best Place to begin when we are talking about Social Media
is to discover what being Social really means ...

When I began taking SM (social media) training classes, I thought Social
meant simply interacting with other people .... Truly it is that but SO much more.

The Definition of Social is :

1. relating to society: relating to human society and how it is organized
2. relating to interaction of people: relating to the way in which people in groups behave and interact
3. living in a community: living or preferring to live as part of a community or colony rather than alone.

Then I finally realized that being Social was more than just me and my friends, it  means society and
and in fact  ALL societies.

With this realization I knew ALL my people were  on a Global scale ...

This raised the question of  "Are All People like Me and My Friends?"  I set out to learn how to
find the answer ...

The more I learned and the more People I came in contact with on a Global level the more I came
to understand ... the percentage of GOOD HEARTS on this planet FAR out measure the Bad ...

As you will discover as you follow our SSS team ... We will share our Social Stories and answer
questions of how to tell when Social Media things have gone awry.

Come back often as we'll go deeper and deeper into SOCIAL MEDIA and how to maneuver as well
as how to be safe with the use of it ...

If you have questions or just need tips and pointers on what to do  or what something means
Please leave a comment ...

We have a well trained team here at SSS and we love to help where we can ..

Remember our motto :  SHARING IS CARING

The Dance of Social Media

Have you ever Listened to a Song 

and Your Feet 

Made you 

Get Up and Dance ? 

Then Welcome to the Joy of Social Media. 

Social Media is designed to link people together on a global level .. 

It is similar to basic internet surfing but is meant to be done 

with other people ... 

The interaction between two or more people on social sites i.e.. Facebook, twitter, G+, LinkedIn

 and all

the others are designed to "get" people together, To be "Social".

The beauty of this interaction is our ability to follow ~  "DANCE" ~  through

the internet with another person ..  How lovely is this idea to actually meet a person that 

lives in another Country thousands of miles away and interact with them 

and to follow and enjoy sites together, likewise all the while 

sharing what you find and learning from each other.. 

Of course there are people everywhere that we do not "get along" with and such 

is Social Media... However, as long as you remember to keep a kind heart 

while meeting others it does not take long to recognize which 

people you will want to share with and which you 

should allow to be how they choose to be with someone else.. 

Thank you for coming by ... Share our Page and come back often

We will continue to 

help and to share the joys of gaining Global Friends that 

can make life so wonderful ...
