    This is a really good article on 3 ways to get more facebook likes.

    At the end, you said it would get us better EdgeRank and Gout.

    I don’t know what edging is, and I sure don’t want to get Gout…..

      All the cool kids are hoping to get more Gout! Oh wait, that’s Klout!

      I may write another post about EdgeRank. It’s a frustrating thing.

      You’re on your own with Klout 😉 Tho I did learn that your FB personal profile appears to influence Klout the most – and adding your fan pages will decrease your score.

    Great tips, just one little problem and that is that when someone likes your page it may or may not actually increase the count. There is a very looooong ongoing thread about this problem in the FB help area. I understand one issue is that in order for a Like to be counted you have to be signed in under your profile – you can Like a page from your own page but FB doesn’t count it. Again, this is what I’ve managed to glean from all the complaints and frustrated messages. I do know that one day recently I had half a dozen messages indicating people had liked my page, but the count only increased by “1” … frustrating indeed.

      Yep, you’re absolutely right, your page like count doesn’t increase from a like by another page. I think Facebook has done this purposely – since anyone can make as many pages as they want, they could use those pages to give the others 25 likes! That’s my interpretation anyway 😉 Thanks for stopping by!
