Does buying Facebook likes really work?

Social media is place to help to get traffic. So If we make Facebook page and buy likes for it. It will not last for long. Once we will have 100 likes. But then no one visit our page, no likes no comments. Simply means nobody is talking about our page. I hope you know about insights on a fanpage. After 30 likes we can see insights of our page. It tells about how many people visit our page, how many like or comment and how many people are talking about our products and services. Just once getting likes then no one will come back or talk about our page, this will not bring any traffic to our page. So just buying likes will not be of any use.

You are rite friend. Its true.

We can’t the deny the fact that nowadays if you are making webpage on Facebook account I don,t think so if there are working properly. Generally, some of the users of this stuff is just only aiming some followers. However, Please make an specific provider.

Many companies are taking the easy way out when it comes to their social networking campaigns. Instead of creating a thorough strategy that provides them with a large number of followers and great repertoire between their business and their customers, they’re instead dishing out the cash and paying for Facebook likes.

There’s no interaction

They don’t stick around

You don’t learn anything[/B]

If you want to be successful and earn a large following, create a great plan and launch it, and leave your checkbook out of it.

It works for marketing. For real huge like from users, your business should be famous. To make it famous, marketing is needed. So for that initial boost buying facebook likes is a good option. When they see huge like in your page, they will think you as an reputed company and thus getting business. Once you are famous, the likes will flow automatically. Dont buy fake likes, buy real ones.

No Its not a Good strategy to attract customers. There are lots of sites which gives you fake followers & fake likes. But its of no use. Cause you will not able to understand how many there are real customers who are really interested in your page activity. So its better to get genuine like or followers. So my suggestion will be try to get real & genuine likes.

It works for some business but till now I’m not sure that facebook likes are helpful

Why you want to buy Facebook’s like, I suggest you just do a legal and authentic work on your page that people automatically like these posts and you can get more response from their.

Best way to get likes for your page is to visit other facebook pages as yours, like them. Post your URL over there so that people show some interest and visit your page. But don’t do it like a fire. It will result into your facebook ID to be blocked.

Risky tactics - you will first get temporary ban for two weeks if somebody will make a single complain.

Getting back to buying likes - whoever says its working has no idea on how Facebook works (sorry guys)

Buying fake likes, and ending up with 100k likes but 0 conversations will bring your EdgeRank down to the floor and trust me - it’s heck of a pain to get it back.
If you want your company to be on the 20+ Facebook’s SERP, go ahead and buy likes.

I think you should interact with the people on your facebook and in turn, they will bring more followers. Buying “likes” won’t do anything but increase the amount of “likes” you do have. They aren’t quality “fans,” etc.

I believe its of no use, in fact i don’t even invite my friends to like my page unless i feel they or their circle are related to my field. Some of my facebook friends are also my clients (i am a copywriter) and i often get request from them to like some page(Which i hardly do unless i have any reason to do so). At the end of the day the only good that can come from unrelated facebook like is a small chance of empty traffic back to your site, provided you had your web link posted on your page. But this is of little use and could even increase bounce rate of your website since these people have little or no reason to check your website.

Yes its a risky tactics. But it should be done in a mannered way. Not like open fire. to post our link on one or two pages will not be that dangerous if it be done in a good way.

You are rite friend. Its true.

Thanks mariawinslet. Its obvious that if we are not getting any traffic even with buying likes. It means it is not the way we can solve our purpose.

[jimmybrion]

It will Never Worth. First you should understand what is meaning of Like in Facebook !!! Like should come automatically. Instead of spending money on buying likes Spend some money and time on making your page more attractive and helpful for audience

It’s just numbers which can be a trust factor for future marketing. So considering the low cost I’d totally go for it.
They’re all spam accounts anyway.

So you have no problem with deceiving visitors in order to build “trust”? Hardly seems the right approach to me. Nor would I ever encourage spammers by paying them (or by any other means).[/FONT]
