Hey,

Very interesting article …

We built a light weight app specifically for the purpose of enabling ‘Welcome Tab’.

Check it out here – http://apps.facebook.com/welcometab

I will really appreciate if you include a mention to it in your article.

We are going to add some serious level of analytic to this app + other planned apps so that owners can see how much traffic they are getting.

Thx
Rajat Garg

[...] keyword-rich (be smart, as it can’t be changed later on) 3. Differentiate your page by making custom tabs, with the “Extended Info” app or the “FBML” app 4. Don’t choose your “Wall”, as the default landing [...]

Really good information in this post. Thanks a lot for sharing. I find the FBML application a “must have” for any facebook business page. I’ve used it very successfully on my own facebook page and even some clients.

Hi Joni – You can only have 5000 friends on your Facebook profile but a fan page and a group doesn’t have limits. For example, Coca-Cola has over 4 million fans!

I just came across an article this morning that highlights the pros/cons of Facebook pages vs groups.

Is it true that one can only have so many people as fans (5000). So if you want to put a non-profit org on facebook what is best? A cause page, a facebook page, a facebook group? I see that many non-profits have a facebook profile which is not allowed. So how can they change from a personal profile for their org to one of the other facebook options?

Hi Jon – What I would do is continue using the Fan page that you already have and use the Events Application. It should be in your list of available apps under Edit Page. You can set it to be a tab and then add events/gigs to it. Once you do that, you should be able to send invites to the event.

I haven’t actually tried it but I think it will work.
