Facebook Tool Box Facebook offers an ever-expanding array of tools for brands to connect with fans

• Brand Fan Pages A Facebook Page is a public profile that enables you to share your business and products with Facebook users. Pages are similar to personal profiles and brands accumulate fans instead of friends. Within pages you have the option of posting and collecting content, importing Twitter and blog feeds, collecting user reviews, and hosting discussions.

• Applications An application is a platform for developers which provides a framework to build tools which Facebook users can add to their profile. Applications range from chat to games to mobile.

• Connect/Share Facebook Connect and Facebook Share are additions to your brand’s existing web site or blog which allow you to integrate their Facebook presence with other online media. Facebook Connect is an open identifier which allows users to take their Facebook profile with them when they shop, comment, or browse on other web sites.

• Advertising Facebook offers banner advertising which can target age, gender, location, relationship status and interest, or music and lifestyle interests.
