Facebook is like MySpace in a lot of ways, though there are many differences as well.

• You can make friends with this site.
• You can update people with your blog entries.
• You can use the updates section to talk about changes you’ve made to your website.
• You can join networking groups that are related to the niche topic you’re focusing on.
• You can place a link to your site and company in your profile so that as many targeted people (the friend’s you’ve selected) as possible can view it.

Just like with MySpace, you want to interact with people in order to get more traffic and make connections. Your Facebook visitors will enjoy seeing what you have to offer, and you’ll get more traffic.

Facebook also has an array of add-ons available that have been developed by independent programmers. These offer a way to interact with prospective customers and visitors to get them even more interested and show them what you have to offer.

An example of a tool that we like to use on our facebook is an app called friendfeed which enables you to discover and discuss the interesting stuff your friends find on the web. For more info o this app visit: http://friendfeed.com

There are also many apps that will let you connect your facebook posting to your twitter account so that when you post to one it appears in the feed of the other saving you time and giving your “tweeps” (twitter followers) a chance to find you and connect via facebook and vice versa…

As you can see by our site here, we are big fans of both twitter and facebook, as a matter of fact, you may even be visiting this site after being twitted by us about it!
