What in the World are Facebook Apps? Top Sites to Use.

What are Facebook Apps?

Those little pictures that now appear on your business page – yeah you can customize them! YAY!

I myself was having issues customizing Facebook Apps for my clients – at first all I could find was how to “develop” them within Facebook like a coding developer. Way too much work. And like the rest of us – who has the time (and patience!) to deal with that?? I just wanted my blog to have a link, and a nice little location for viewers to subscribe to newsletters!

So, thanks to one of my little tech women groups, Social Media Sisters, I asked them what they liked to use best to create them?? SOS!!!!

As always, Social Media Examiner became a hot tool for researching, and I looked into Amy Porterfield – who is a FACEBOOK GURU – and saw she had a great video that walks you through, as well as a few recommendations.

I started by using Lujure – which I recommend, however it is $30/month for unlimited apps, but I find it a small price to pay!

Other recommendations:

– Pagemodo
– Tabsite

 

Give all three a shot to see which one you may like best, different sites offer different functionalities. If you have a great recommendation – let us know too!

What not to leave out of your will – social media accounts

I was intrigued to come across this post on why you should “leave” you social media accounts to someone when you kick the bucket.  Apparently with all the information they hold, they can be quite valuable – some appraising upwards of $50,000!

That’s something to (not) croak about!
