Facebook Badges

Social media continues to grow.  Reports indicate that a fan of your business on Facebook is worth $137. Further, use of social media now accounts for 22% of a persons time online.

One way to tie your Facebook presence back to your professional website is through the use of Facebook badges.  Here we will demo several badges.  Note that you can learn how to implement your own badges at http://www.facebook.com/badges/ and http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like.  However for those who are non-technical, we are happy to assist you.

Note that all but the Like badge can be display vertically or horizontally.

Another popular option is the image below.  It's not formally known as a badge.  Functionally it simply links someone to your page using the familiar Facebook icon.  Since Facebook does not autogenerate the code to make the linking work, you do have to know how to do that.

Facebook Page Badge

This badge is useful for featuring your business or a fan page.

 

Facebook Like Button

The Facebook Like Button can be placed on your website and allows visitors to "Like" you.

 

The Facebook Like Box

And now the coup de grâce for those wanting to tie their business profile into their Facebook page, the Facebook Like Box. To create your own Like Box you'll need your Facebook Page ID and the tool on this page. What you get is a display of most recent post along with friend and page info.
