How to insert a Facebook Like box in your Blog

Since the day I had a big decrease in traffic at one of my blogs, I decided get the time I was investing in my websites and invest 90% of it in Social Media and Forums, and only 10% in Google’s SEO, instead of doing the opposite, why? Because you can’t trust Google search, they’ve got a lot of rules in their algorithm, specially now with the Penguin Update. You may be doing a white hat SEO and get your website penalized for something they judge you might be doing wrong, and then I ask you: Why should you trust your online business and money at something as unstable as Google’s search? Why should you let Google say what you should and what you shouldn't do with your site? Money don't grow up at trees, neither you should let anyone say what you should do with your money and penalize you if you don't use it "wisely", from his point of view.

Speaking like that sounds a little ironic, because I’m using one of Google’s products, which is Blogger, anyway, and not less, trust your online business at Facebook, because in Facebook you can engage with your visitors, then those visitors will become your readers, and then your customers.
You can have a really huge amount of traffic depending on how many likes your page has, you can publish anything anytime, like a newsletter, but better!

What about your SEO? Leave the most of it to your visitors, let them link back to your site, let them talk about your site in other sites. When you interact at Forums, you’re already doing your SEO, even if the forum is Nofollow, you must remember that the forum is indexed by search engines, so when people reach the post you made, they will see your links too.

HOW WILL YOU GET FACEBOOK TRAFFIC?

In order to get Facebook traffic, I recommend you to create a Facebook Like Page, you can use your profile to get traffic too, but mostly a page is something more professional and won't mix up your personal with professional life.
Click right here --> to create a Facebook page.

Now that you have your page, you will need a Facebook Like Box, click here --> to get your Facebook Like Box embedded code. I suggest you to get the iframe code, if your HTML skills are really basic.
Now go on your Blog’s dashboard, click Layout, you’ll see your widgets positions, chose the place where you want your Facebook Like Box to appear then click “Add a Gadget”, scroll down until you see “HTML/JavaScript”, click it, paste the code inside the text field, save and refresh your blog’s page.

Now you can see your Facebook Like Box like this:

As time passes, people will start to like your page because your content, then you'll be able to use the page to publish your links and then get traffic. Thx for reading, I’ll be seeing ya, next time bring me a cup of coffee, I’m sleepy…
