Facebook – It is still important to use your personal profile.

After networking today with the group it came up about liker number and the effect that business page use has had on the growth of pages. Likes from a business page don’t count as a liker of a business page and combined with all the other Facebook changes it is now harder to grow a liker base.

For me I have hardly used the business profiles of my pages since they came in and if we do it is maybe once a week or so that we do. The reason being that I like people to meet me and to introduce the business/service of our range of brands to the page or group I am communicating with.

Reasons to Use your Personal Profile on Facebook:

  • To Participate in groups (this is not available in page mode)
  • To keep the personal aspect of Social Networking
  • To allow people to know your business and you
  • To like pages so that the liker base for the page increases (Karma will see it come back to you

I maybe old fashioned but I like using my profile to network on Facebook and for me I see it as an important tool in my business in addition to pages and groups.
