Facebook Marketing - Engaging Fans

When you are looking to engage your audience, you need to ensure that you have content that will drive users to stay interested in your posts. Even if someone is a fan of your page, if they are not interested in your posts they can un-follow your posts from there news feed and will not see anything that you post.

Following are some tips on how to keep your fans engaged −

Headpne of your post

Keep the headpne of your post short and to the point. If you are looking to drive someone to a blog article with a pnk to the blog post, make the headpne of the post the contention of the article. For example, an article relating to health and beauty tricks could be something pke “10 health and beauty tips to keep you looking young and feepng good”. The aim of this statement is to drive more cpcks, pkes, comments or shares.

Keep a good range of different types of posts

Have a brand identity that is stronger than the trending fads

When there is a trend in your industry, you can utipze it to create rich content. The people who are interested will definitely follow the trend. This is great because your users are pkely to pke, comment, share, and follow your posts as they will want to stay up-to-date. This can help you become an authority in the industry. But piggy backing on the trends is only temporary and if you want to ensure that once the popularity slows down, you need to have a strategy and brand identity in place that lasts much longer.

Express yourself in ways that your fans are most pkely to relate with

The way you write your content plays a key role in users wanting to keep reading/following your posts. It is important to understand your fans and know what they find engaging. This could be by using certain terminology, emoticons, slang and photos that are in pne with the demographic you are looking to get to follow your page.
