I recently created a website using WIX about Creator Day on October 18 (a day for Christians to unite in glorifying our Creator, appreciating the creation, and taking a united stand regarding our continued belief in the Lord of the universe in this unbelieving day that attempts to deny the Creator). After some promotion, it had gotten 1140 Facebook likes. Suddenly 1110 likes disappeared, leaving only 30. I read that Facebook was making changes that caused some "likes" to be lost, and the WIX site instructed that Facebook be contacted. But would it really cause ALMOST ALL the likes to be lost? Or can a hacker do this? Facebook didn't respond when I contacted them, so I'm still in the dark. Has anyone else had similar experiences, heard anything, or have any advice? Does it sound more like a Facebook problem, a WIX / website problem, or a hacker problem?
It sounds like a glitch, they might actually reappear. It also sounds like FB reps aren't doing much responding to the issue.

Your URL must have changed.
For example, previously it is domain.com, now it is domain.com/default.asp
Even though they both landed to the same page, but the URLs are different.
Thanks. It would show as a different address then? I went back and checked and it is still http://www.creatorday.com/

What is your fastest or best way to get a lot of facebook likes?I know it seems kind of a dumb thing to worry about, but there are a lot lot of great competitions that rely on 'likes' to win.. Not to mention the SEO benefits of having an article go viral!

Yay! Today, I hit the 80,000 mark for Facebook likes on my Michigan Accents hub. I wish I had MORE hubs like this! I only published it in at the end of Nov 2011. So thrilled about this!

I am using the newest version of Firefox on a Windows 7 premium PC, but when the "Pin" and "Tweet" buttons appear on my hubs for sharing, there is no sign of the "Like" button for Facebook users. Yet there is an empty space where it should be. Is this normal, or has...

Yesterday when i reviewed one of my hot hubs, i noted that Facebook like on all my hubs was lost. I hope Hubpages rectifies this problem ASAP.
