All right, let's get started.<br> <br> What's up guys? Welcome back to our Q&amp;A mini-podcast. We got another awesome question for you today. Our question today comes from Marnie Gensburg.<br> <br> Alright, Marnie writes:<br> “How would you recommend launching a new Facebook page. I'm stocking up with several blog post as you recommended on my website, but should I have several Facebook post before I start promoting the page?”<br> So I think what Marnie is asking here basically is, in the other podcast that we had a while back, we recommended that when you launch your actually website for your product, your service or whatever your doing, that you go ahead and and write 10 blog post before you ever create the WordPress page.<br> <br> Once it's live you just immediately launch all 10 of those. That way, if someone finds your website and they read an article, they're gonna' have other things to look at and it's not gonna look like you've just started out. So you kind of see that website that way.<br> <br> A Facebook page, I think that works a little bit different. I think you can just go in, you don't have to put 50 post on there or anything like that and make it look like your Facebook page is been really active for awhile.<br> <br> Facebook page takes a little bit time  to kind of get your vibe going, you got to create you cover art or change you're picture and do all these things. I think with a Facebook page what you should probably do, is just start the page. Maybe the first couple of days you're gonna' post a little bit more often. You can go ahead and post some links and things like that.<br> <br> But you don't have to sit there and make it back-date everything and put a hundred posts, make it look like your Facebook page is existed forever. I would just take a week or so and work on it.<br> <br> Once you feel like you've kind of got it fleshed out and it looks a little polished, you've got some activity generated there. Maybe share it with your friends actually promoting it with Ads at first to get a few likes and get all those things going.<br> <br> You're gonna have to do that anyway to get up to certain amount of likes before you can create an Ad. But get some people on there, get some people talking and get a little engagement and just let it flow. Don't just sit there for an entire day and make it look like you're page has been there for a year when it really hasn't.<br> <br> JOCELYN: One thing you can do now instead of actually trying to back-date everything, you can actually schedule posts in Facebook now, which is a pretty cool little thing. If you go into your page and you go like you're going to post something on it. There is a button that say: "Post in the bottom right". There's also a little arrow there, if you click on that down arrow, it says: "Schedule Post".<br> <br> So what you can do, is you can go in and putting post for however ma...
