Add A Facebook Fanbox to your Blog or Website!

Facebook just announced a new widget for Fan Pages.  Now people can become a fan of your Business or Fan page directly from your blog or website!  Just follow these easy instructions.  I’ve replaced my Page Badge on my blog with a Fan Box.  You can see it in the left-hand column.

1.   On your Page, click the “Edit Page” link under the Page’s profile picture.

2.  On the right-hand side of the next page, under the Promote Your Page heading, click on “Add a fan box to your site”.

3.  Copy the Code in the box.

4.  Now simply add that code to your webpage!  If you are the webmaster of your page, this shouldn’t be a problem for you.  If you use Blogger, I can help you out with that. 

5. From the Layout page of your Blogger account, choose “Add a Gadget”

6. In the window that pops up, click on the “+” sign beside HTML/Javascript

7.  Paste the code in the text box that appears.  Click “save”.

8.  You may rearrange your gadgets on the Layout page by dragging & dropping.

You’re done!  I’m loving this gadget so far!  You can even scroll through all the items I’ve posted to my Fan Page.  Give it a try.
