      I am trying to figure out fb:admin tag.  I noticed that Moz uses a person's from hubspot,  is this because hubspot connects into their facebook data?

      Who should my company set it to?   Any guides would be helpful.

      Thanks,

      Chris

        Unfortunately, our site was never set up right after our rebrand to moz.com so I can't see the data and it's not something I've used before so I cannot give a recommendation on value of data. Just because we're not using it doesn't mean it wouldn't be or couldn't be of value.

          That's exactly the issue we were working through, How you have to set the FB:Admin to a personal page and can't set it to a company page opens up for that sort of thing.     If you guys didn't even notice that it was set to an ex-employee,  is the data received even that helpful to warrant using the tag in the first place?

              And I did some digging into ours at Moz, and the person that it's set to used to work at Moz. So we should probably fix that.

                Hi Chris,

                Thanks for your question! The fb:admins tag should include the individual Facebook user ID (fbid) for the administrator of your company's Facebook page. If you have multiple admins for your company's Facebook page, make sure that you include each admin's fbid in a separate fb:admins tag. Step-by-step instructions for doing this are available at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/platforminsights/domains.

                I hope that helps!

                Christy 🙂

                  Facebook won't show up in SERP

                  facebook serp

                  Hello! One of my clients' Facebook page isn't showing up on the SERP, even when you search "CLIENT NAME facebook" or an excerpt from a live post. Our social media team looked over all the settings in Meta, and everything looks correct, so we are stumped. Anyone encounter this before?

                  How do you remove ads that pop up on your youtube videos? I have created several videos only to have my competitors ad be the first thing to show up on the videos. Curious how you turn that off.

                  Company FB Page Automatically Friend-Requesting Admins' Contacts

                  Hola, So today we added 3 or 4 admins to our company FB page. Our company FB consists of a 'profile' and that 'profile' has create a FB 'page' for the business. All of a sudden, the profile (not the company 'page') started to get a new friends. We thought this was weird as we weren't using this for promotion, we were using the company FB page. Anyway, when we dug a little deeper, we found the profile had automatically sent friend requests to all of the admins' contacts (around 2,000 people!). When we checked the friend request page, we realised we can't cancel all the requests, they have to be done individually! Why would FB do this? It might not be so bad if it was actually inviting the admins' contacts to 'like' the business page, but it's just adding them to the main profile's friend list. The only solution we can find is to deactivate/delete the profile and keep the company page with all the admin attached. Any ideas on this one? It's very weird and now it just looks like our fleldgling business is spamming people! Cheers, Lewis

                  Does a link in facebook count as a backlink?

                  Q: Does a link in a facebook post count as a backlink? Q: is it a 'do follow' or 'no follow' link? Q: twitter uses short links, so when someone links to me, do i get the points/juice from the backlink?

                  How can you tell if a competitors' FB post was boosted?

                  Does anyone know how to identify if a FB post was boosted or not? Does FB or a third party software have that  capability? Thanks, Ruben
