Promote your business with Facebook pages
On Facebook, traffic is about interactions, which can come in the form of comments, likes and shares. All of these are fundamental to promoting your business on Facebook. The more buzz you can generate around your business page, the more likely you will be able to turn curious Facebook friends (and friends of friends) into paying customers.
Like a good cocktail party goer, effective Facebook promotion relies upon creating conversations. One great way to do this (In real life and virtually!) is to ask questions. Ask visitors to share their thoughts and opinions on your posts. Statistics show that question posts generate a lot more comments, but do not tend to drive shares or likes.
Your goal is to encourage your followers and their friends to interact and share a piece of themselves on the page – ideally in the form of more than just a “Like.” Write questions that can be answered briefly – with a yes or a no. Most Facebook users won’t take the time to write long-winded responses to vague or philosophical questions.
Keep it simple.

What is a Facebook Page?
Pages are for businesses, organizations and brands to share their stories and connect with people.
Like timelines, you can customize Pages by adding apps, posting stories, hosting events and more. Engage and grow your audience by posting regularly. People who like your Page will get updates in their news feeds.
You can create and manage a Facebook Page from your personal account. Please note that only the official representative of an organization, business, celebrity or band is permitted to create a Page.
