If I share an article with my friends what do they see? Do they get emailed, does it appear on their home page?
When I say friends, I mean the army of eager network marketers who bombard me with requests to buy into their MLM or SEO schemes.
I thought I could start giving them something back to read.
It's just a post on their Facebook feed. Like any shared article or news item.
Thanks, I'm really not an expert on Facebook. Basically I can spam these people with my Hubs? Is that OK?
I don't know. Never tried it. And I'm far from an expert as well. I know how to like, comment and wish people happy birthdays.
Might be a good idea to spread the love out a bit, though, would be my guess. A couple here, a few there. I think I heard once that facebook is god-like and all-knowing, and metes punishment out quickly to offenders.
They may shut you down for a bit if they think you're being annoying.
I use facebook occasionally and some of my 'friends' ready my stuff and comment. My FB account is very private though so it really doesn't do much. I guess every little bit helps so an occasional post is ok.

I recently had an article take a dramatic plunge in views and am trying to figure out why. I had approved a couple very long comments that included misspellings and punctuation errors (now that the Q & A is gone I'm getting some lengthy comments)! Can these comments lead to a plunge? I've since...

What are the potentially cons of not using a comment box?I'm tired of answering the same questions over and over again. I'm tired of getting rude comments. I'm tired of dealing with it basically. I want to help people, but answering the same question over and over again or having to defend myself...

I am currently writing and plan to write on somewhat polarizing topics, so I don't want to tell my Facebook friends when i write an article (I keep my politics closely guarded in this day and age). With that said, I'd really like to drive lots of traffic to my articles. How do I go...
