As of this morning, <strong>more than 65 people have commented!<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Note: The more people who Comment, Like and Share your content, the more &#8220;credit&#8221; you get from Facebook.

Let your blog readers know.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you blog, let readers know about your Facebook page at the end of your posts. Explain what kinds of information you share on your page, link to it, and tell them to Like it. Don&#8217;t assume your blog fans know you&#8217;re on Facebook!<br \/>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Tag your Facebook Page(s) from your Personal Profile.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Friends and relatives who are interested in your personal life might also be interested in your work life but have <strong>no idea where to find your Page<\/strong>. To tag your page from a status update on your Profile page, simply write a note and type the name of your Facebook Page using the symbol &#8220;@&#8221; before it, like I&#8217;ve done below.
