Whenever you write an update for Facebook Page, you are likely to be on the Page itself by default. It can be quite confusing to consider that wall is not the place where 99% of your fans will see your update first. Though there might be some people leading straight to the wall through an ad or link. The existing fans are going to look at your update in their newsfeed. Always remember that saying something like ‘check out our tab on the side’ is entirely out of context for people who see this update in the newsfeed. Try to use a photo instead to draw people into your updates.

3.     Restrict ads to people who don’t like your page
