Create and Install an Iframe for Facebook Pages

About a year ago I created a tutorial on how to create landing pages for a Facebook fan page. We all know how fast things change on Facebook and that video and training is now outdated. Since the time I made that training Facebook made the switch to Iframes.

I think you will find this very helpful because it is very simple to do. I looked into all different solutions for landing pages and quite frankly it made my head hurt. There were lots of choices but some options seemed like you needed to be a computer wiz to make it work and there were some solutions that were too expensive. I knew there had to be a way to do something similar for free. I found this was an easy and free solution to create a nice looking landing tab.

Take a look at the video, I think you will be impressed with how simple this is.

Here is the link to the free html editor I talk about in the video-http://www.coffeecup.com/free-editor/. If you have questions about this contact me and I would be happy to help you.

Creating A Facebook Landing Page Step By Step with a Free Swipe File

Creating a Facebook Landing Page Step By Step with a Free Swipe File

When you create a Facebook page you want to make sure you have a landing page to greet people. A landing page for your Facebook Like page serves several purposes. It tells people who you are, what you are about and what they are going to get by joining your page. It should also make people take action like joining your page by clicking the “like” button, signing up for your list or sharing a free item with them.

So I am going to walk you through how to create your Facebook landing page and I have a PSD swipe file at the end of this training so you can take the file and modify it if you have Photoshop. Be sure to check out the video training I did on how to install your Facebook landing page.

The size I have found works best for me is 530 pixels by 430 pixels. This width is the best and you can play around with the length if you want and make your page longer.

So here is your blank canvas at 530 x 430 pixels

Start by making a small bar at the top of your page. You could fill it with a solid color, photo or pattern. I chose to use part of the background to the header to my blog to make it cohesive with my brand.

Next you will want to add the “like” button to this section.

Then you can add an arrow that will be pointing up to where the actual “like” button is on your Facebook page. This helps clarify what you want people to do. You want to be clear about what you want people to do and call them to action.

I filled in the arrow with a matching color. I then add text with my name and tagline. I also added text to emphasize clicking on the “like” button by adding text to encourage people to join my like page.

I then added my photo so people can see me, know who I am and feel a deeper connection with me.

I then added my blog URL under my photo.

I then create another small bar on the bottom of my page.

I like to also include a free gift to get people to not only join my Facebook page but direct them to my blog. I have used a free ebook but if you have a product you have created this would be a great place to share this. So I put in the Ebook image and text to be sure to tell people where to go.

The last thing I did was to include a short summary about my page and what information people are going to get from my Facebook page.

I hope this tutorial helps you to easily and quickly set up your Facebook page. If you want to use the swipe file go ahead and take this PSD that I created and change it to fit your Facebook site. Download the PSD file hereand make the necessary adjustments. If you need help with how to install it on your Facebook page be sure to check out the video I did.

Check out how this looks live on Facebook and be sure to “like” my page while you are there.

If this was helpful to you please feel free to pass this on to your friends on Facebook, Twitter or your favorite social networking site.

How to Install a Custom Facebook Landing Page

How To Install a Custom Facebook Landing Page-

A Facebook Page is a great way to create a presence for your business on Facebook. A nice landing page can really help you standout, share what you are all about and create a professional look for your brand. I created a video below to show you how super simple it is to install a custom page on Facebook. First I want to discuss a few important elements you might want to include when designing your page.

The first thing I highly suggest is to have a nice photo. I recommend a photo of yourself if your page is for your personal business so people know who they are connecting with. If you page is for a larger business I would suggest a nice photo or logo that reprents your brand.

The second thing I highly recommend is to write a description about who you are and what you page is about. Give people a general sense of the information you like to share, that way if people don’t know you personally they know why they should “like” your page and what to expect.

The third thing I suggest is having several calls to action. One call to action to suggest people who visit “like” the page. The second call to action is something to get people to visit your website or blog. So give them something valuable to visit your website or blog such as a free ebook or product you have created.

I hope those quick tips are helpful, now be sure to check out this video on how to install your landing page.

As you can see it is super simple. I had this installed in less than 5 minutes. It is a very quick and easy way to create a professional look for your brand on Facebook. If you didn’t undertand something or don’t know how to get your html code be sure to connect with me on Facebook and I can walk you through it.
