Facebook Marketing

If your business or brand is not involved in Facebook marketing, then you need to start today. Facebook is by far the biggest social media platform in the world and is growing everyday at a phenominal rate. To date Facebook has over 901 million monthly active users, and approximately 80% of these users are outside the U.S. and Canada.

On a daily basis Facebook has over 726 million daily users and a staggering 498 million users were active with Facebook on at least six out of the last seven days. By the end of October 2013 more than 196 billion friends had connections on Facebook, and an average of 3.9 billion Likes and Comments generated by Facebook users per day during the second quarter of 2013.

Facebook marketing is about building lasting relationships with your existing customers and promoting your business.

most important stories to the top of your Page for up to 7 days
