How to Expand Facebook network?

Hello everyone!
I need your help.I have heard from many people that facebook can drive much traffic to your website if you have a huge network of friends. So tell me if you have any suggestions how to make it p0ossible .
Waiting for your reply!

I’m not sure if you’re asking how is it possible to build a huge network of friends? Or how is it possible to drive traffic to your site? I’m not an expert (yet:)), but here’s how I’d start:

Make sure you cover the basics - use ‘find friends’ to check your email contacts to see if your existing contacts are on FB and send friend requests to all of them. Search networks you belong to - schools you’ve attended, companies you’ve worked for, places you’ve lived, and send friend requests. Find pages and groups that share common interests with you and participate and get to know people there and friend them. Some people contact their friend’s friends.

In terms of driving traffic to your site - use FB networked blogs to syndicate your rss feed and post updates to your FB page. Also set up a FB page for your website and put the ‘like’ button on your website so people can become fans from within FB or on the site (invite your FB friends to the page). And, I’m learning, the most important thing is to ‘share the love,’ make sure you support your friends websites, pages, comments, etc.

Hope this helps.

hi…
if you are user of orkut… then you can find orkut friend on facebook… you can find friend from friend finder…

You can do a SMM of your website…

Actually i don’t catch you exactly but i give you a suggestion if you want to use fb than first create your a/c and make friend and visible in front of them
than you can join some group related to you & your site and you can make a page in fb it will help you to increase traffic…

you should use market place application and also you can do posting on fb some informative things on your wall so people take intrest in your profile and read all of your posts whatever u post on wall…

You can expand your network on Facebook by joining groups the is similar to what your website is all about.

add more friends, join groups/fan page, be an active user, post something interesting and be friendly…

Thanks creativityfuse for your reply and giving me idea what should i do but when i try to send friendship request to more than 5 people at a time it send me cap-char check that is really irritating. So will you suggest me how to get rid of this ?

I agree with rypher. This thing Can definitely expand your facebook community and networks. But a huge number is not the guarantee for your traffic. Try to interact with the people as well by replying to their comments and posts. Doing this will motivate them to check out every thing you share.

Well is this for a page or a group?

If it is for a page, I recommend first suggesting who you can and having them suggest everyone they know, then pimp out your facebook page with a million things like quizes, contests, videos, articles, coupons, games, etc. Things to keep people there and keep them busy on your page. Create contests where for people to enter to win they must suggest your page to 5 people.

If that is to much for you you can always make fake facebook accounts and add people then suggest them to your page, or worse case scenario buy visitors.

have a look on this may help u:

SubmissionFC i’m talking about FaceBook fan page not group. But thanks for your suggestions. I was also thinking to create application on facebook and also an FBML tab on my page to attract people.
@booking1212: Thanks for sharing this article.
I’m still waiting for other replies and suggestions .

There is so much rah rah about social networking right now . It feels complicated, but it really has to be a communicating. Im just getting started , hoping to learn from the forum post too.

ask a friend (who has a huge network of friends) share his friends with you.

Hi,
You Have find friend on orkut, linkedin , manually list added & increase your friend list.

anilyadav i have already tried this . Should i go for Facebook paid ads now? But its costly i guess. Isn’t it?

It is costly but it returns with better benefits… Think for what you get from investment and then invest…

Well, one thing that I can suggest is to build your network as naturally as possible. Instead of using it solely for promotions, you can interact with your clients though this, and let them spread the word for you.

You are right my_misyel. I will try this and tell me should i go for linkedIn ?

Facebook can give more traffic than google? Isn’t facebook affecting only joyng people? Like high-schoolers and college students?
