Blog Post: The Facebook-Google Deal is Great for Your Business

Google’s Marissa Mayer announced, at the end of Google Search Event that Google will soon receive real-time access from Facebook Fan Page updates.

“Facebook will be providing us with a feed of updates from public profile pages, also known as Facebook pages,” says Mayer.

This is a great opportunity for the more than 1.6 million active Fan Pages on Facebook, of which almost half are local business, who are sharing content on a regular basis. With Facebook profiles and Fan Pages being indexed by Google, businesses can leverage their Fan Pages as part of their Search Engine Optimization strategy.

By continuing to update your Fan Page on a regular basis with relevant, engaging content, your Fan Page will likely be found by prospects and customers who are searching for products and services on Google. If you execute the strategy properly, you could grow your fan base exponentially and get your company in front of more qualified prospects who are actively searching right now for what you offer.
