advice about building a facebook page
« on: May 05, 2015, 07:55:28 PM »
I'm building a facebook page to showcase and hopefully get commissions of my various types of art etc.
customs, plushes and well just art drawings.
I added a bunch of photos to various albums, but i don't really know what else i should do.
what do you do with yours?

I don't touch facebook with a 50 foot pole--but I can say if you are building a portfolio, something pleasing to the eyes and professional (while still being 'you') is mandatory as far as the layout goes.

Don't just post a bunch of pictures and text.  Design everything else around it, like you would be proud to hand the link over to a potential employer.

Now do I know if you are able to change the layout? No. But its worth looking into--and if that fails, ditch facebook and go with a web domain.

i also have a weebly page, that the facebook links to.
i'm mostly trying to use facebook as a connecting point.
but i'm not sure about changing the layout. i can look into that.
i don't really have time to do special give aways or anything right now to promote the site, but want to make sure it's not well... really awful

I have one for my dog and every now and then I post the link on my facebook page to get more likes/followers. You can't really change the layout of facebook - only the cover page.

Is it MLP based? Maybe post it on MLP based facebook pages like the MLP collectors page and restore doll's page?
