I have used Facebook fanpages for quite awhile to drive traffic to my websites and blogs successfully, but to be perfectly honest I was under-utilizing their full power by not using the FBML application. Now that I have corrected that tiny little mistake I am getting ten times the traffic I was getting before. Yes, ten times!
My face is red as I write this because I didn't even know there was such a thing as FMBL until I took a challenge from a well known six-figure earner to build a new fanpage and he taught me what I needed to do to create much better fanpages that can show up in the search results of both Google and Facebook plus they look better than the generic fanpages.
I knew that more people are using Facebook for advertising and that Facebook has surpassed Google for traffic, but I missed the key piece of the traffic puzzle.
If you are like I was and you aren't using FBML pages then you may want to check out the free videos on how to set them up by joining Instant Blog Subscribers as a free member where you can find everything the moment you login. Better yet, Walt is offering $1000 first place prize for the best IBS fanpage and it does not require you have the most fans. In fact, it could have no fans as long as it is original and has pulling power so get creative and win some money for Christmas.
