In the fifth part of the series we perform the dreaded switch from a Group to a Page.

In past videos I talked a little about the difference between a Page and a Group, my recommendation was to start a Page but for this experiment I would be creating a Group. Well we’ve done that, but before the Group gets to big, let’s switch it to a Page so we can focus on promotion and apps.

Here’s the video!

I see a lot of questions on how to use Facebook.

One great way to use Facebook is by building a community page, it’s easy, viral and local.  All the things you want in a promotion.

In this series we start with nothing, and build a community page live, you’ll see the failures, and the success as the group gets built.  That means you can build yours while watching the series.

TIP:  You may consider using a Fan Page instead of a Group Page.  Both have their pros and cons, however, I choose a Group Page for this series just for experimental purposes.  Fan Pages offers a little more flexibility, Group Pages are super easy.

Hi Everyone,

I did a quick review for everyone of a new service running at no cost.

The service is called Etacts.com and it will tell you the last time you contacted someone in your Gmail or Google Apps account.

If you’re building a relationship and referral based business this tool is perfect.

Watch the video and you’ll see exactly what I mean.

Do you ever wish you could tell someone your Facebook address?

Sure you tell people, “Find me on Facebook” or “Look me up on Facebook”, but it would be nice to tell them how to get straight to your profile or your fan page.

Facebook held off introducing vanity urls for a long time and finally relented.

Don’t know what a vanity url is?  Well it looks like this:

Notice how that link takes you straight to my Fan Page?

You can make one just like it for both your profile and your fan page, watch the video to find out how!

I know, ninja is getting over used!

So I’m going to start using Olympian!  In honor of the Olympics of course.

Add pictures to your blog like an Olympian!

See better already.

Today we have new video for you.  It’s going to cover, umm, adding pictures to your blog in an easy way!  As you know or not, blogs are much more interesting when you add pictures.  Everything is more interesting with a picture.  Cake is  good example, birthday cake is always better because they put pictures or cartoons or fancy writing on them.  I think I’ve made my point.

I need to do a shout out to Mike Mueller, Mike gave me the idea for the video, thanks Mike!  Mike makes awesome custom Facebook Fan Pages.

Here’s the video Enjoy!!
