Facebook today: an audience unlike other platforms
Facebook may not be the first app teenagers open any more, but across the US, the UK and much of Europe it is still where large groups spend time: parents following school and town pages, neighbourhood and buy-and-sell groups, tradespeople advertising plumbing, cleaning and tutoring, and car dealers and estate agents posting listings in pages and Marketplace. It also remains the platform where many people look for a service near where they live.
That is why the reasons for ordering Facebook services differ from other platforms; usually the target is a local business page whose owner wants it to look active to people arriving from a search or a sponsored ad, or an offer video they want to have a clearer presence. Our three services deal with each of these numbers separately, without any access to or permission on the page.
The three services and the link each one needs
The difference between following a page and liking a post on it causes common confusion: the first is a number for the whole page, the second a number for one post. Pick the service by what you want to change. If you run more than one page, each page has its own orders, and an order doesn’t move from one page to another even if both belong to the same business.
- Facebook followers: for a page or public profile, with the full facebook.com link or the username. Suits a new business page.
- Facebook likes: for one post via its link — not likes for the page itself. Suits an offer or announcement post.
- Facebook views: for a published video or Reel via its link, including fb.watch links. Live streams are not part of this service.
Facebook links: where to copy them
You find the page link in the browser’s address bar when the page is open, or from “Share” → “Copy link” in the app; it starts with facebook.com followed by the page name. The form also accepts fb.com links, and if you type the username alone in English letters and dots, it turns it into the page link and shows it to you before payment. A post link is copied from the share button below the post or from its timestamp and usually contains /posts/, /photos/ or permalink; a video link contains /videos/, watch or /reel/, or is a short fb.watch link.
In every case the link must open without signing in. If the page is age- or country-restricted, or the post is visible to friends only, it can’t be delivered to.
Neighbourhood businesses that rely on Facebook
A heating and boiler engineer in Leeds
A page advertising boiler servicing before winter, reached by homeowners through search or community groups. An understandable follower count first, then a clear offer post, is the order that suits it.
A tutoring centre in New Jersey
The centre posts SAT prep timetables and exam dates, and parents are its main audience. The post carrying the timetable is the natural candidate for likes.
A used-car dealer in Ohio
The dealer posts a video of each car on sale. Here views are closer to the goal, with a separate order for each video.
What we don’t offer on Facebook
We don’t sell page ratings or recommendations and we don’t write reviews, because added ratings mislead people reading them before dealing with the business. We don’t enter the page or ask to be its admins, and we don’t touch the ads account. We refuse orders for pages promoting content that is unlawful in the customer’s country.
If your audience is younger, you may find closer-fitting services under Instagram services or TikTok services.
