I will jump right into the topic without wasting your time.
How to get targeted Facebook friends quickly:
After you created a free account at Facebook your number 1 mission should be to get as many friends as possible, preferably targeted to your niche.
If you want untargeted friends, just search for “more Facebook friends” in the groups. (This is a good group to get more friends) Now join some of these groups. People here have only one purpose and that is to build a huge friend list. Post your name on the wall and discussion boards a few times, asking people to become your friend. In the discussion board there should be posts with hundreds of emails.
When you go to “invite new friends” you can insert an unlimited amount of emails, to invite these people. People from these kind of groups, will accept you, because they want extra friends. If you add your email as well, you will get more friends invites almost virally.
Get targeted Facebook friends:
If you want targeted friends, search and join groups in your niche. Start inviting people from here, make some good informative posts and comments
on the groups and people will start following you if they see you share the same interests. Only join groups that are active and are getting new members all the time. Post regularly on these groups and you will see how your friends multiply.
I get almost 25 friend requests each day this way. You can also search for events in your niche and do the same. You have the friends, now what? Now you can start building a relationship with them. Message them occasionally and start posting status updates of your day to day life. (not in your niche) People will realize that you are a real person and are not just there to market. As soon as you have built some credibility with your friends, you can start marketing.
Ways to get free traffic with Facebook:
There are a bunch of ways to get traffic to your sites, blogs and links. Here are my top ones.
1-Status updates:
Update your status regularly, and posts some links to your new posts, web pages or new links occasionally. Your niche posts should be in a 1:3 ratio to your “normal” status updates. Make sure there is a picture on the page you are linking to, because then you can select the picture to be shown in your status update as well. People will see your status updates on their homepage of Facebook when they look through the news and you will generate some nice click to your links this way. (TIP: Don't spam them)
2-Post links in groups:
Join a lot of popular groups in your niche and make useful posts on the wall (with your links) and in the discussion boards (insert your links). Posts will stay on some discussion boards for quite a while, and lots of people will see your posts with your links and this will generate good traffic to your sites.
3-Create your own groups:
And this is where the POWER of Facebook marketing comes in. Create your own groups in your niche and invite all your friends. Post the link of your groups in all the other related groups on facebook regularly to get people to join your group. Mail your facebook group link to your list, put it in your forum signatures, blog posts etc. to get a good following. You could have hundreds of members in days, and thousands in a few weeks if you are lucky. These groups will be like your own personal lists that you have and you should manage them just like you would your email autoresponder lists. You can also mass message everyone in your group. Send them useful information with lots of freebies to get them to trust you and open the messages every time. Then slowly start messaging them with amazing offers which links to your sites or affiliate links. Also remember to put in all your webpage links in your group description, because this will count as valuable back links. Put up photos and videos with links and also post links to your offers in your group. People who join your group for years to come, will see them and click on them. You can build huge lists with groups like these and message them at will with your offers. This will bring in a huge amount of free targeted traffic to your sites, if you do it right.
4-Facebook Fan pages :
This is another method that is becoming more popular by the day. It is very similar to Facebook groups and you can create a Facebook fan page just like you do a group, but it has some distinct differences.
Fan pages are used to promote people, celebrities, groups of people, businesses & more. They are created to increase promotion, attract supporters, and generally increase awareness & online presence and of course interaction with customers and potential customers. The 'Marketing' of the person or group being promoted through a Fan page happens in a variety of ways.

The 'Marketing' of the person or group being promoted through a Fan page happens in a variety of ways.
- . When a person 'likes' a fan page, that connection is posted on their wall and then shown in the Home Page feed for others to see. Then friends of that person click on the page just connected with...and so the number of followers grows.
- . You do not need to be a Facebook user to view a Fan Page. A person may follow a link from somewhere eg. a website and look you up on Facebook from anywhere in the world.
- These pages are not private pages...so anyone can access the information on a particular page even if they haven't 'liked' it as such. (If you aren't sure what all this 'liking' is its Facebook's new way of 'becoming a fan' of a page. Where a person once became a 'fan' they now become a 'liker').
- Its easy to post a link to a fan page across other Facebook pages...putting the pages name in front of different groups of people. A page is easier to manage and has less limitations & more options to customise & increase functionality than a group. A page is run by 'admins' who can be changed when required, and allows those who've been added as an admin to make changes and post on the wall of the page & generally manage the page and its happenings.
