'like me' before you get my free download

[findtim]

helena was just doing some research on vector images and landed on a website that offered free vectors

'free'........ well as long as you facebook LIKE them, they have as system where you hit the link to download the free vector but it takes you to facebook first, once you have posted/liked on your facebook wall you then get the download link.

REALLY interesting system, if anyone knows anymore about it i'd LOVE to hear it as i want to use it for a new project of mine.

i think it opens up a heaps of ideas for me, eg: free small ebooks for a 'like' etc

Thanks Tim, I'm seeing "pay with a tweet" quite a bit now.

Thanks Tim, I'm seeing "pay with a tweet" quite a bit now.

for my use a like is MUCH better then a tweet, the website i gave had the option for the user to do either which i think was great.

A like is not as valuable as it once was though. Now you must pay to reach all of your likers.

That's if you are having them like your fan page.

To like your website is different I guess.

i'm self confessed non-facebook but this seemed interesting for me, the value of likes for me is not for google rankings value but promoting this particular website to a certain group of people. I want the exacts whilst i work on the rankings.

The problem is now Tim, posts on your page timeline do not show to all people that have liked your page unless you pay money. Not sure if there is a set percentage but not anywhere near 100% see it. When I post, about 50% might see it at best.

it seems 12-16%

this is just 1 article but i have seen many like this

I don't know if this is what you're after but you can buy a ebook by using a tweet.

Oops didn't see all the posts above. Seems popular then. Personally I'd prefer to tweet then fill up the fb news feed. That's a deletable offence (unfriend).
