The Perfect Backlink

Here’s a very important infographic, 11 Essential Ingredients of a Perfect Backlink. Backlinks are one of the most important parts of search engine ranking.

Search engines look at incoming links from other websites to yours when determining search engine page rank. Thus, it’s important that your site gets high-quality backlinks based on these standards:

  • High authority — When sites with .edu and .gov domains link back to your site, search engines see this as a testament to your site’s own authority level.
  • Relevance to your site — Incoming links should be related to your site’s content to make them count.
  • Social media activity — People linking back to your social media content increases the importance of your site to search engines.
  • Targeted pages — For better ranking, links should be connected to specific pages in your site, and not just the homepage.
  • Fresh links — Older links don’t have much weight as newer ones, so don’t stop looking for opportunities for backlinks.
  • Lastly, don’t forget this: The more interesting your content is, the higher the chance it gets linked back to.

Step By Step Guide to Posting Your Promotion to Facebook News Feed

Images and Videos inspire the most engagement on Facebook.

We live in a visually oriented world, and images capture attention and inspire engagement actions including “Like”, “Share”, and “Comment” more than other text-only methods.

Facebook, in its own research, found that the most successful posts for capturing the attention of users and inspiring action are visual. Photo albums generated 180 percent more engagement than other types of posts, and individual photos 120 percent more. Since 40 percent of a Facebook user’s time is spent in the News feed, capturing attention to inspire a “Like,” comment or share by using images is critical.

An important part of posting correctly also includes using a mobile friendly Smart URL. See how to get one here: Mobile Smart URL Guide for Facebook Pages

Here’s a Visual Guide Infographic on How To Post for Maximum Engagement.

Select and Run Facebook Contest for your Page INFOGRAPHIC

Facebook Engagement — Achieve it and your page can soar to new heights. Without it, your merely shouting into the wind.

Companies that achieve engagement have pages with an active, positive, and involved community.  This type of social community responds to Facebook posts, is committed to the brand, and helps to further extend the reach of the Page through their sharing and comments.  Increased engagement can bring about positive returns in a number of areas for marketers including:

  • Increased size of audience
  • More brand awareness
  • Greater customer loyalty
  • Increased e-mail list opt-ins and subscribers
  • And more actions taken on ordering products and services

With research data by noting that 79% of Facebook fans are more likely to purchase from a brand they have liked, pursuing more fans and deeper engagement with existing fans is a huge priority!

The million dollar question remains, “how can a company boost engagement for their Facebook Page?”  While there are a number of core methods for increasing engagement such as creating highly shareable content, posting images and videos, and posting at key times, another powerful method is to run promotions. 

Promotions have the ability to draw visitors to a Facebook page and when used correctly, can be a very valuable tool to accomplish engagement objectives.
