How do you moderate facebook comments?
-
I added facebook comments to many pages on my site. Does anyone know how you can moderate (or even see) what comments have been left?
If I go to facebook.com/insights for my website it tells me that I have had 15 comments this month. But, if I go to "popular pages" it shows me 1 page. If I click on that page I can see that one comment. But where are the other 14?
I really like the idea that when people leave a facebook comment on my page it goes on their friends' news streams and then my site gets more exposure. But, if I can't moderate my comments that would not be good!

Hey,
Have you tried adding the moderator meta tag to the page with the comments box?

It works the same way.
In the upper right corner you should see "Adminstrate Comments". Are you logged into the same facebook account used for your site? Are you an admin for the facebook app? As long as the answer to both questions is yes, you will be able to moderate the comments.

Thanks, but I'm talking about the new facebook comments that you can add to your website. I'm trying to find out who left comments on my site.

Hi Dunamis.
I understand your confusion. Facebook cleverly hides the icon for deleting comments.
To delete a comment you must be logged into Facebook and on your site's page. Go to your WALL, find the comment you wish to delete, then move your mouse to the upper right corner of the comment. The area will appear blank until you hover your mouse in the corner. Then a snowflake like icon will appear.
Clicking that icon will offer you the option of removing the comment, hiding the comment, and banning the user from your page.

Facebook targeting on Organic
Hi I am fully aware of how to do facebook paid advertising but I follow a page called: https://www.facebook.com/GiveMeSport/ They know that I am a Liverpool fan (might a filled out a survey once or some other way, but they know I support the greatest football team on the planet) however they only ever show me Liverpool articles in my feed and they are organic. They post a lot more but i never see any of it. Does anyone know how they are able to do this as I would love to segment people on my site and target them accordingly. Thanks in Advance Andy

Will Facebook traffic hurt our SEO? Should we put our blog on the core domain or sub domain?
We are concerned that social traffic could hurt our SEO. What do you think... Our average time on site from organic search traffic is 7 minutes. Facebook traffic has an average time on site of 1 minute. Both traffic sources are going to different pages. If we generate 3 times as much traffic from Facebook as we do from google this will pull down our overall average time on site and engagement levels big time. Should we put our blog on the core domain or a subdomain? Right now we are holding back on promoting on facebook because we are concerned it could hurt our SEO, what do you think? Should we try to get as much traffic as possible from Facebook even though the engagement is much lower? Should we put our blog which is generating the low engagement traffic from facebook on the core domain or a subdomain?

Facebook: How do you post to a brand's page, as your own brand page?
Eg, if you are an administrator of "Funco" which has a FB page, how do you post on the wall of "Followerwonk" as "Funco", not your personal FB account?

Facebook interactions report on SEOMoz - help!
Our Fan Interactions report for the last 7 days is showing 10475 more interactions than the previous week. These didn't happen on our page and if we'd been tagged wouldn't it show up on our page? We had the usual number of Likes and Comments last week, nothing unusual there and 3 mentions, none of which triggered this level of activity. Can anyone shed any light? If we did get tagged, why wouldn't we know about it? Thanks Cecily

Facebook Page vs. regular website
Thought experiment... All other things being equal (content, inbound links, etc), which will rank better: a Facebook Page or a regular website? Why?
