Don’t check in on Twitter and Facebook once or twice a week and only for 10 minutes. That’s why this is more of a message for large and not necessarily small brands.

After all, Facebook could eat the web. In fact, you’re likely spotting the shift; instead of companies posting their URLs on television commercials, they’re asking their followers to join them on Facebook. Don’t use a Facebook Group. Your Facebook Page should be created under your primary Facebook login.

Engagement in a process called brand evangelism is one beneficial strategy to get your brand known and to help spread your message. In a brand evangelism strategy, you’d take note of those who feel good about what you are doing: they already represent your target audience. Now you know who your brand loyalists are.

Marketers love Facebook. The best place you can place your brand on Facebook is through a Facebook Page (that’s with a capital “P&# , not to be confused with your personal Profile). Facebook Pages do not allow background images like Twitter, Myspace, and other services. This applies to Pages as well.
