And just a P.S. here re. “blog site.” You want a website with a blog — not a website at one URL and a blog at a totally different URL. The blog should be integrated into the website. Maybe that’s your plan!

Hi Sandra,
Thanks so much for your timely reply and info. So sorry that I am so horribly late in thanking you, but I “lost” this thread and didn’t realize you had replied. I only just now stumbled upon it!
I am slowly getting my FB Page and my blog site going. I know I need to post more often on both, but…
Thanks again for the information and link.
Cindy

Hi Cindy,

1. I’m not sure what you mean by “reviews” on Facebook, but to see your stats on a FB Page, you select “Insights” while you’re on your Page.
2. I see 2 values in a Page — the audience info you get from “Insights” and the ability to promote posts. Also, FB terms of service prevent you from using your profile for marketing purposes — you run the risk of getting booted from the site. In reality, very few people will ever see what you post on a Page, though, unless you’re posting content that generates a lot of engagement. That can be done, of course, but it takes more thought than the average user puts into it. Answering your question…I don’t know why you’d want to use a different profile account for your Page. What’s your thinking there?

You might find this info. in a more recent post helpful: https://buildbookbuzz.com/facebook-profile-page-or-group/

I know I’m late to the party, but I only just found this blog/article today as I was researching something else. But it has reminded me of two burning questions I have regarding FB. Maybe you can shed some light on the subject.
1) Where do you find the stats on reviews? I can see shares and likes, but the only other info I’ve seen is my own activity.
2) I have had a personal FB page for several years and have 600+ friends, most of them through direct personal contact. In building a platform as a writer, I’ve read that a professional FB page is a must. The question is whether to create a Page attached to my personal account, or whether it is better to open a completely new account using a different email address. I tried the latter in the past for a different type of “branding” but found that I seldom checked it because the FB app on my iPad is set for my personal one.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Cindy

I’m so glad it was helpful, PJ. And I’m so glad that AF was willing to share her experiences here.

I have only 84 likes and that felt like pulling teeth! So I’ll attempt this myself and see what happens x

I get a better response to images on my profile as well. Probably because I’m posting and sharing more geeky stuff on my profile.

Vikki, people aren’t always kind. Are you prepared for that?

This is exactly why I tell authors with personal/profile pages NOT to use their book cover as their profile pic. People want to interact with people, not with book covers. Thanks for pointing that out, Donna.

Quick tip: When posting a link on your fan page, make the appropriate statement as the status update and publish it. Then post the link as a comment. That 2-step approach will help you avoid FB’s dislike of links and more people will see that post with the link.
