Your fans don't see your Facebook posts!

So, you thought that just by posting your updates, thoughts and links to your Facebook Fan Page wall, all your fans ('likers') would be seeing everything that you say and do in their News Feed?

Not so, hombre!

The sad fact is that something around 90% of fans never return to the Fan Page once they've liked it, so it is imperative that you get your posts seen in the fan's News Feed. And, with the advent of Facebook's EdgeRank system to determine what shows up in a fan's News Feed, it is the most popular posts from all their friends and Fan Pages that they like which they are showm.
