Some time ago I posted about how
to get 1000+ Facebook fans in 3 days; this post wants to be a reminder
of how buying fake Facebook fans is great as it makes your brand look
really good...doesn’t it?
These so called fans, I call them leeches, will never
interact with you and they will never visit your page simply because they could
not care less about you and what you offer. But why would you care when you
still look so great for having so many fans.
Well, there’s a little problem with it; those leeches fake fans lower your
brand’s popularity simply by existing, and limit the odds that your content
will ever be seen. For instance, your existing number of fans is 100 and 10 of them
like or comment on your status; that will give you a 10% interaction rate.
If you buy 1000 fans you’ll have now 1100 fans and if the same 10 people like
or comment on your status you’ll end up with an interaction rate of 1%. Pretty
straight forward isn’t it? I could show some real examples but I don’t want to
attract more enemies than I already have ;)
That
decrease in interaction will lower your EdgeRank and it will cause your posts to be shown
less and less on people’s newsfeeds
as Facebook will rate your content as not important
or
not interesting.
Social media is about communication and interaction. It is
about quality over quantity, and being able to interact with your fans and
build a strong base and foundation for future growth.
This post is dedicated to those of you buying fans whether on Facebook or Twitter. While you think you look
supercool the rest of the world think you’re either a loser or have the brain
of a 5-year old child (with all due respect to children).
Don't buy fans, it just makes no sense.
I didn't buy that 1k additional like to my page, it was provided in exchange for a link :)
