The secret of invisible Facebook fanpage : Part 1 : Social Search

The secret of invisible Facebook fanpage : Part 2 : Open Graph

Really? Is there a hidden or invisible fanpage on Facebook? Do they really exist? Why should we use invisible fanpage?

There is no doubt that Facebook is now the #1 most visited single domain website on the Internet. People not only have one or more personal profiles, they also have more than one fanpages.

I am currently conducting an experiment using the hidden/invisible fanpage to engage with fans and drive traffic from Facebook to my websites.

What?

Yes. You heard it right. The purpose of using invisible fanpage is to drive traffic to the external website. In theory, it is the greatest tool to monetize the traffic from the largest social network for affiliate marketing, company promotion, new blog post notification and engaging with your fans OUTSIDE of Facebook.

For example, when you like this blog (click on the LIKE button at top of the page below the huge banner), you will become a fan of my hidden/invisible fanpage. Regardless what fanpage you have on Facebook, the first thing you will do after creating your fanpage is to invite people to become your fan by Liking your page! There is no difference to the invisible fanpage. I call it invisible or hidden fanpage, because they are not visible to anyone on Facebook other than the admin of the page. In other words, you can’t see the fanpage’s wall, photos or discussion. All you see is the destination page on the external website. You do, however, see the fanpage update on your news stream on your wall.

Let the money roll

Building

This is going to be a short update on what I have done in the past 100 days to change my life as my 2011 resolutions.

I have to admit that my life has not changed dramatically, but I have achieve some of the goals.

  • I am very close to my ideal body weight, which is 147lb.
  • Eat healthy at home 5 days a week.
  • Join golf membership and commit to practice twice a week.
  • Officially becoming a Real Estate investor.

One of the achievements is to use my money to roll into bigger money. I truly believe that rich people will become richer faster, if they really put their money in the good use. Building a wealthy life can not be done by 9-5 full time job or 401K. Investment is the only way to accomplish that.

This is going to be a fairly long update on my new 2011 resolutions post and change life in 100 days.

Really. There is nothing to be proud of. My new resolutions in 2011 hit a small road block. One of my helping hands decided to find a job to pay bill. I can’t blame on him. Everyone has different financial situation. I can only say that I feel bad that I cannot afford him to help me moving forward.

With about 24 days left to change my life, I have a short exit plan. It’s not a plan to exit my journey, but a plan to exit what I do to make significant changes to turn my world inside out.

Here is the summary of the top 3 things to change my life and to make 2011 a better year.

Confession 2010

December 10, 2010 4:03 pmTerence Chang

It’s almost a year ago, I post Weekend Confession – Plenty of opportunities saying Google was trying to acquire Yelp.com for $550 million dollars. A year later in December 2010, Google is trying to buy Groupon for $6 billion dollar. Obviously, there were a lot of opportunities. So how am I doing on my business?

Well. From Google’s perspective, my business sucks! It’s time to look back and give my self a serious examination.

Recently, I discovered one of my web project build on top of CodeIgniter is having issues with duplicate page views. It only happens to FireFox and Google Chrome browser. It looks just find on IE, Opera and Safari browser. So I keep researching and researching and finally found out that Facebook Social Plugin is hitting the page after the initial page load from the browser triggered by the end user.

I am not sure why it doesn’t happen to browsers other than FireFox and Google Chrome. There has to be a way to prevent this from screwing up my page view counter.
