What a great post - I used to sit near a group of kids that worked the facebook algorithms and learned a lot too. Some of this is new to me. Is this specifically for your facebook author page, or for your regular FB page? As the two are different in their algorithms. Thoughts on that?

In reply to Roanne L. King. Roanne, the best way to get new followers is to post content that your existing followers will share. This can really mushroom when their friends and followers share. Before you know it, your post is seen far and wide. The real trick is finding content that's engaging enough to go viral. I know how hard that is, but if you keep at every day you'll see your following grow. Good luck!

Thanks for the article Ellen--I've heard a few of these before(like always put a pic in!) but also learned some new tweaks...AND I saw a very good friend's name by your facebook example--NOW I know how she got those great Dorothy Parker quotes!

Excellent post. I am gradually realising how crafty Facebook are with sending out (or not should I say!) my posts to my followers. Unfortunately to make it worse, I created a business page rather than a fan page and it is even harder to gain likes.

Thanks for the tips. Aside from asking friends to like my page (I've exceeded my quota I'm sure) and sharing posts via other social media, how exactly do you get new page likes/interaction from those not already connected to your other fans without paying to promote?
