Facebook "BUY BUTTON"



SHOPPING FINALLY COMES TO FACEBOOK 

Earlier this year, both Twitter and Facebook began beta-testing "buy buttons", which appear alongside certain tweets and posts and allows users to make purchases with just a click or two, without ever leaving the network. Expect e-commerce and social media integrations to deepen in 2015. In fact, it’s a little surprising it’s taken so long.
For starters, this approach eliminates one key dilemma all merchants face – how to get customers in the door (or to your website). On Facebook and Twitter, you already have an audience, happily chatting with friends, browsing the latest trends, sharing photos and videos, etc. Once their payment details are on file, purchases are a tap or two away. Then it’s back to cat GIFs and updates on weekend plans.
In addition, since Facebook and especially Twitter are real-time media, they’re perfect for short-term deals tied in with fleeting trends. With time-sensitive offers literally streaming by, consumers may well be inclined to act quickly and seal the deal  forgoing the obsessive comparison shopping that characterizes lots of Internet transactions.
Finally, there are major benefits to advertisers. Connecting individual Tweets and Facebook posts with actual purchases has thus far proved a huge analytical challenge. But with the advent of buy buttons, concrete revenue figures can be attached to specific social media messages in a way that hasn’t been possible until now.
Shopifycom  has already provided online stores that can be easily linked to you already established Facebook Fan Page ... Thereby utilizing your hard gained traffic and followers you have now ..  Here is an example of the fan page store

Security on Social Network Sites

Be safe .... Take the few extra minutes to protect yourself on your social media sites ....
These simple steps will go along way to giving you the extra protection you need while you spend time visiting and playing with your friends online ...
 

Protect your account login ...
Your password is critical in protecting your account login .. Change it often and if the social site offers the "two-step" login, seriously consider setting it up and using it ... We know it takes a little bit longer to "sign into" your accounts, however, it will save alot of time in the long run from your account being accessed by someone else. 
 
Be careful About What You Post On line
You maybe so excited about that next vacation  you are planning and want to share with all your friends your plans and where you are headed .... Think twice before you post your plans to be away from home on your social sites ...  This could easily be turned into free information for thieves to pay your home a visit while you are away on holiday.
Instead ... send private messages or emails and then when you return home ... Share all your wonderful photos and experiences with your family and friends ...

Remember our motto Sharing Is Caring ...

How to Deal with Cyberbullies:
Many of us have seen them .... Heard of them and some of us have actually fallen victim to them ...
Our best advice is KEEP RECORDS of every attack .. DO NOT INTERACT with them ... Cyberbullying is against the law.  All social media sites take a stand against it ... Report them to the site ie.  Facebook, Twitter, G+ etc. will stop and even revoke accounts of people that are reported and found to be practicing Cyberbullying ...
Visit the Cyberbullying Research Center for more detailed advice.
 
Keep your Computer Protected
Periodically check your anti-virus program and keep it  up-to-date and running at all times ...
 
Watch Out For Scams
We all know about the typical email scams .... that tell us ... Congratulations .. You have won Millions of dollars just send me your information so I can ship it to you ... WE know to never send any personal information to anyone we do not know ...
However, now on social media sites there are new seemingly harmless questionnaires,  for example:
" My Wizard Name Is: _____"  What is your Wizard name?"  Fill out this easy questionnaire and find out ...
This seems simple and safe enough ... In reality once your have completed, the people that have created the questionnaire now have information about you and will be using that information .. For their gain ...
 
Being aware and keeping your eyes open and using a bit of common sense will go along way to making your social media experience fun and safe as well ...
