Starting a New Facebook Page: The Experiment Begins

by | Sep 3, 2024 | Blog | 0 comments

So, here we are at the beginning of yet another online adventure. If you’ve been following my journey, you know that I’m no stranger to trying new things, and this time, I’m diving into the world of Facebook Pages. But why, you ask? Well, let me take you through the reasoning, goals, and the first steps in this exciting new experiment.

Why I’m Starting a New Facebook Page

First off, let’s talk about the “why” behind this new venture. There are two main reasons:

  1. Exploring the Facebook Bonus Program: I’m genuinely curious to see what it takes to get into Facebook’s bonus program. The idea of Facebook paying creators for their content is pretty enticing. But what’s the catch? How much work does it really take to qualify? This new page will be my sandbox to find out.
  2. Testing Different Post Styles: Every niche, every audience is different. What works for one page might flop on another. By starting fresh, I can test different post styles without the constraints of an established brand. This will be a learning experience to see what resonates and what doesn’t, and in a different sandbox entirely.

Goals and Parameters

Now that you know the “why,” let’s talk about the “what.” What am I hoping to achieve with this new page?

  1. Monetization Exploration: My primary goal is to see how I can monetize this page. There are several avenues I’m considering:
    • Facebook Bonus Program: Can I make it in, and if so, how lucrative can it be?
    • Traffic to Website: A well-run Facebook page can be a powerful tool to drive traffic to a website, which in turn could generate revenue.
    • Affiliate Sales: I want to explore whether this page can be an effective platform for affiliate marketing.
    • Selling the Page: If the page gains traction quickly, there’s always the option to sell it. After all, a page with a decent following and engagement could be quite valuable to the right buyer.
  2. The 1-Month Test: I’m committing to this for 1 month, with minimal effort, just to gauge what kind of traction I can get. The idea is to see what works and what doesn’t without investing too much time or resources. If it takes off, fantastic. If not, I’ll have learned a lot without a huge commitment.

Week 1 Tasks

Alright, here’s where the rubber meets the road. Week 1 is all about laying the groundwork for this new page. Here’s what I’ll be focusing on:

  1. Find a Niche: First things first, I need to find a niche that could work well. This involves some research to find a topic that has an engaged audience but isn’t overly saturated. It’s all about finding that sweet spot.
  2. Come Up with a Name, Logo, and Graphics: Next, it’s time to get creative. The name needs to be catchy and memorable, something that resonates with the niche. Along with that, I’ll be designing a logo and some basic graphics to give the page a professional look right from the start.
  3. Create the Page: Once the niche, name, and graphics are sorted, it’s time to create the page. This involves setting up all the details, writing a compelling “About” section, and making sure everything is polished and ready for visitors.
  4. Post Initial Content (Around 20 Posts): Content is king, right? So, I’ll be posting around 20 pieces of content to get the ball rolling. These posts will be a mix of different styles—text, images, maybe even some videos—to see what gets the most engagement.
  5. Start Running Post Boost and Facebook Likes Ads: Finally, I’ll start running some ads. The plan is to boost a few posts to reach a wider audience and run ads to gain likes for the page. This will help kickstart the page’s growth and give me some initial data to analyze.

What’s Next?

That’s it for Week 1. The foundation will be laid, and I’ll have some initial data to work with. As always, I’ll be sharing updates along the way, so stay tuned to see how this new Facebook Page experiment pans out. Will it be a runaway success or just another lesson learned? Only time will tell, but I’m excited to find out!

Until next time, keep experimenting and keep learning.

Can you include the information that I already have a couple of successful Facebook pages in the bonus program, but this is a new one not based on one of my existing businesses

I already have a couple of successful Facebook pages in the bonus program, so I know it’s possible. However, this time, I’m starting fresh with a new page that isn’t tied to one of my existing businesses. The idea is to see how much work it really takes to qualify and to explore the potential in a completely different niche. This new page will be my sandbox for experimentation.
