Facebook Advances: All About Getting Noticed
October 10, 2007 · Print Post · Bookmark post
I have been so busy lately, that I have forgotten about some of my projects. They are small projects too. One that I wanted to get out early with the release of the marketplace in Facebook, was delayed by several months. But NOW finally it’s released!
First I want to thank Carl and Heather who has helped me make this little ebook a little more informative. I have been delaying this ebooks because I wanted to make it unique and not make it a “make money with facebook” ebook. But since there are small ways to generate a little income from Facebook it does go into some detail, plugins and marketplace. I just think there is too much crap within this particular niche, that a lot of people ignore the ebooks that are on the internet. So I have decided to make a small ebook 20 plus pages of good information.
Facebook Advances is a simple ebook on plugins, organization, and networking.
Here is a small snippet from the sales page I created.
- Have Your Own Buy Me a Beer Application
- What are some money making Plugins
- How to structure your Facebook profile
- Learn to use the marketplace for Affiliates and eBook
The sales page is small because its a simple ebook. I do not need to make a HUGE SCROLL sales page when the concept of Facebook is simple networking.
If you have been following my blog you will probably question yourself, “FaceBook Advances is already on your Blog Ian.” That is true, it is all right here. But there are other aspects within the ebook that are not mentioned on my blog.
For example Carl has typed up a great page on Facebook Markup Language, giving the high school student an understanding of code. Similar to HTML except its Facebook own language, FBML. I also speak of plugins that are good to be used, but Heather gathered a good list of money making plugins. I think college students will enjoy this ebook due to the fact it is informative.
The Reason for this eBook
When Facebook Marketplace came out, I wanted to create an ebook/report on how to use it. It would have been a good hit since it was still brand new and now it is more advance, but still has similarities.
With the growth of the Marketplace I decided to make and overall concept of Facebook on my blog, especially for bloggers. Then it has digressed into an informative ebook about Facebook and getting more exposure via by layout and structural design.
Then I could not make a good enough ecover, so I gave it to my graphics designer. He designed my Forum Marketing ecover and BlackJack Hacks ecover. He has done banner work for me as well and designed graphical buttons as well. I understand he has other freelance projects going on, which is fine with me. Just getting him to be on top of my project without pushing it aside was the hard part, so days went by and then months! I just then decided to pay someone for the Facebook ecover above; I say it came out nice.
Now finally it has been released and what a better time too, since the release of the new theme and projects I have been working on, I am very amped to start making it on the internet!

Wow. Free. Awesome. Sign me up!
FB seems like a great tool and it even seems at least, more enjoyable to use as a marketing weapon than Linkedin.

It seems to me this ebook provides good information and might be a guide how to use Facebook most efficient.
I am very curious about the content of the book.
By the way… Great Blog!

Seems like a good idea, think the sales page could be a little clearer though. Good luck

Building web traffic is never easy and it can be always tough for beginners.
There are of course many ways and the tips given above are really useful, i mainly concentrate on social bookmarking. I think that has a good niche when it comes to generating traffic.
There can be no denying that facebook is making an impact and that too in a big way. This is mainly because ofthe vast reach that it has and many more people trying to cash in on this.
I haves used facebook quite well to my advantage many times and it has yielded positive results almost all the time.

Have Your Own Buy Me a Beer Application? Well that sounds interesting and tempting.
I think book would be worth a read considering the rate at which face book is growing and the vast number of business opportunities that it posses.
My mentor was not very keen on facebook marketing but when I showed him the numbers he was more than happy to jump in. I guess there are people who are still not aware of its potential and drub it as just as some useless sites for kids.

Facebook is the best think that could have happend on the net.
It has something for everyone and more than that it is free. It is easy to do many things on facebook and business oppurtunities are huge too.
I think face book is going to be bigger and better.
Anything that helps me break into it even more is welcome!
Kudos!
