Have you heard all about Facebook Jail yet? You may have read that the entire concept is made up. Unfortunately, this isn't exactly the truth. Although it may not technically be called "jail," it is very possible for you to have your privileges suspended. Keep reading to learn how to avoid this dire consequence.
But do you actually care? Maybe not. You may go through the rest of your life never giving a second thought to the matter. However, if you are one of the over 1 billion people on planet earth who enjoy the service, it would be a bummer to get dumped by the site. Even worse, if you are someone who markets a product online, Facebook may actually be critical to the success of your business.
One of the craziest things I ever hear is that it is somehow unfair to have Facebook Jail. All I have to say is, if you think it's so unfair you are welcome to put your money where your mouth is and start your own social network. There you can have whatever rules you want.
So what can you do to avoid landing in this form of online purgatory? We will discuss three tips that will help to keep you in the clear. These are to act naturally, never spam, and learn to engage your audience.
Acting naturally should not be all that difficult, should it? So many marketers get into way too big a hurry to cram their offers down peoples throats. Develop real friendships and relationships and you will be rewarded.
Don't send spam! Do you like spam? I'm guessing that the answer is, "No." If you don't like it, why would anybody else? Sending spam is a sign of desperation. You won't get sales, but you will get kicked out of Facebook.
Learn how to engage your audience. The number one rule of marketing is to give the audience what they want. Meet them where they are. Provide value and you will build up a wide following. Those with wide Facebook followings typically get more leeway and are less likely to be "imprisoned."
Here's the final word. Be yourself. Take time to get to know people and build real relationships. You will not only avoid Facebook Jail, but will actually see your business thrive online.
