Spice Up Your Facebook Fan Page

Your organization is using Facebook and other social media to reach out to donors, volunteers, and board members, right? Good! That’s an important part of incorporating the Internet into your overall communication strategy. Here’s a way to make your Facebook fan page even better – add your own navigation bar. By adding a customized navigation bar to your Facebook fan page, you can provide permanent direct links to important information that helps keep your key constituents engaged and informed. You don’t have to be a programmer to make it work, but you will need someone who is comfortable cutting and pasting from any HTML editor.

John Haydon shows exactly how to do it on his web site.

Do you have other tips for leveraging Facebook or other social media? Let us hear from you!

This was very helpful. I used it to add 'Quick Links' to the sidebar of our BDPA Foundation facebook page -- http://www.facebook.com/pages/BDPA-Foundation/13734387198 -- My challenge will be finding someone that can do the HTML code for more unique and interesting sidebar info.

Anyhow, thank you very much for sharing this with us!
