More sites are now adopting Facebook Comments, a social plugin for handling comments on any site content. As a result of this there is now a new opportunity for Facebook page owners to promote their Facebook pages and earn backlinks. Its called Facebook Page Commenting. And how it works is very simple. Just visit any site that has Facebook Comments installed and post a comment using your Facebook page as the poster.
Now it is important to point out that by default Facebook Comments will usually select your personal Facebook account as the poster. So you must select your Facebook page from the list of available pages next to the "comment" button.
How does this benefit you? Well for starters if you post interesting comments to relevant pieces of content on popular sites you can gain visits to your Facebook page, get more Facebook Likes and increase your social reach. This traffic can also trickle-down to your website as Facebook page visitors begin to check your main site out as well.
There is another potential benefit here also. Your Facebook page has great search ranking potential and we are regularly seeing Facebook pages ranked for many keyword phrases. Having more backlinks inbound to your Facebook page, especially from large sites can boost the pages rank for many relevant keywords.
It should go without saying that for this tactic to be used effectively you must use it in a "whitehat" or "goldhat" way. No blackhat spamming! Otherwise sites can remove your comments and take even more aggressive action such as banning your Facebook accounts. And remember unlike traditional comment posting, when you post with Facebook pages your NOT anonymous. So write intelligently and make sure your post is relevant to the content, and that the content is relevant to your Facebook page.
