Unless you have lived in a cave the last 4 years, you have probably heard of this.It is a rocking hot social networking site that seems to be almost everywheretoday. On the news. On the radio. On the minds of millions of folks a day.And there are many different types of people onfacebook. I am going to do apost on that soon. But these great folks all participate in what I call the“10 SocialMedia Laws of facebook.”Mari Smithwould be proud.Ok- I know that you may be asking,” A LAW aboutfacebook?”Yes, 10 of them for marketing and business success in what you so. I am a marketer and havebeen for 20 years. Built a training and consulting business that does business inover 20 countries, because of social media and the internet. And there aremarketing laws that all marketers and business professionals must follow if theyare going to have Success in the marketplace.Follow Doug on Twitter  It is the same for Facebook.If you are an Entrepreneur, or a businessprofessional, you may want to consider these as they will make a difference inwhat you do on facebook.
1) The Law of Visibility on Facebook.
 
You MUST be visible onfacebookof you are going to get your message out. Youmust spend time on facebook and get to know people. You must put yourself together a“facebook blueprint”and work it. How many hours a week are yougoing to be seen on FB? How many times are you going to befriend someonethis week? How many times are you going to upload photos this week? All of these things put you in the ‘Visibility Zone” on facebook, and on the radar as far as people on facebook. Be SEEN and be THERE on a daily basis.Chris Brogan andRobert Scobleare.
2) The Law of the Powerful Facebook Profile.
Why would people want to get to know you? One of the first things they checkout is your facebook profile.What does it say- but better yet- what does it DO?Does it make people curious and want to get to know you? Does it make themthink? Does it make them smile? Does it make them see that you have Value for their life and can help change it?Powerful facebook profiles are NOT based on what is said in your profile-
but what it DOES.
Does it direct them to DO something? Does it tell them you are person theyMUST know? Or someone that has a nice picture and a nice profile- with nomagnetism? Put yourself OUT THERE and tell the world WHY they need you asa friend, and get them to take action towards YOU. Nancy PerezandCarrie Wilkersondo.
3) The Law of the Facebook WALL.
You MUST use your Wall to market or message. many folks regard their Wall asa communication utility like email. It is not that. You already have a facebookemail. The Wall is for you to
BUILD- BRICK BY BRICK- MESSAGE BYMESSAGE- NOTE BY NOTE- VIDEO BY VIDEO- your Brand on Facebook
.Every time something happens with you- it goes on your Wall. Don’t stare at thewall- CLIMB THE SUCKER and make your message the PEAK of the page- andkeep yourself out there with the Wall. And answer the messages on your Wall.Thank people for sharing with you their visit or message. This will show up onTHEIR wall. This will set you apart from most on facebook. The Wall is simply aBILLBOARD of what you are doing and your friends are doing on Facebook. Useit often and wisely.Matt Bacak andAdam Urbanskido.
4) The Law of Your Facebook Network.
You are part of a localfacebook networkand you have access to that network tobefriend them. I live in Birmingham Michigan, and the network i am a part of isthe Detroit network. There are 640,926 people in my network that I could
 
potentially MEET LIVE in a local place and get to know them and connect withthem. You have local folks as well. Where do you find your network?Click on

The Link application onFacebookis a HOT commodity. It allows you to post a link that you like and then sends it out on the news feed that is on your home page. Itpicks up the image that you want on the link page, and allows it to be a LIVE link.Send out other people’s LINK and givem some LOVE. Do NOT just send out your own links. Let others do that. Find interesting links of others and send them out.WHY? EXPOSURE for you. You will be given credit for the link. People LOVElink love. If you send out a LOT of other people’s links on facebook, they will startsending out YOUR links. Been there done that. Joel CommandYanik Silver do.
