14 Ways To Get More Facebook Shares [INFOGRAPHIC]

By Mari Smith | February 15, 2013 |

Share is to Facebook as retweet is to Twitter. It’s all about how VIRAL you can get your fan page wall posts. Of course, you want plenty comments and likes on each post — this activity certainly helps boost your post visibility in the news feed of your fans. But, if you can craft the majority of your wall posts in a way that inspires your fans to say:

“Wow, I just *have* to share this with my friends!”

…then you’ll begin to notice a nice uptick in shares. Shares have more weight in the news feed. Basically, Facebook’s algorithms determine that the more people share a post and make it go viral, the more people want to see it. Makes sense.

In this fun INFOGRAPHIC, prepared for me by the good folks over at ShortStack, you’ll find 14 different ways to help boost your Facebook visibility and inspire more SHARES!

Plus, for examples of profiles/pages that consistently get large numbers of shares, check out folks like Roger James Hamilton (see this post), Robin Sharma and, of course, George Takei … and do subscribe to my Facebook Lists: Facebook Candy to Inspire, Inspirational/Spiritual, Facebook Experts & Resources.

    Great tips in the infographics as always.… But the best part was the quote “wow I have to share this with my friends”… To me, that would be a true sign of engagement, more likely to create conversation and action from those who see the share.

    We have progressed from pushing out impressions to eyeballs and most now realize that getting a share is far superior. The next step will be to understand how even a low number of shares can become very successful if an engaged person is sharing.

    Actually I must be the only one who finds this particular infographics a bit chaotic. I prefer visually simpler layouts. But I sure like the icons, I would make the background sand color a bit lighter for easy read. The information is great, the time of the most visible Fb posts are eastern times? Thank you Mari, I will sure like your Fb page!
