Facebook Timeline Wrap-Up: Everything Today Was About Sharing Content http://ow.ly/1eNPTn

The keyword "dollars off" in a retail offer-related Facebook post provides the highest user engagement — 55% higher than average — out of 10 popular choices, according to a September 2011 report from Buddy Media. And ubiquitous "coupon" ? It had an engagement 39% above average.

On the other end of the spectrum, seemingly popular keywords, such as "sale", "save," "deal," "% off" and "bargain" have lower-than-average engagement rates – 30% lower in the case of "sale."

Buddy Media, which has produced a comprehensive report on what works and doesn’t on Facbook, is hardly the first to weigh in on the subject of effective words on social media.

Put SEO-Rich Text In The Right Place on Facebook Pages

It may seem like common sense, but search engines can?t parse images, which
means they can?t tell if there?s text inside an image. So don?t put your
SEO-rich text within an image that you add to a new custom welcome tab. It
can?t be indexed there. Instead, put that text on the About and Info tabs.

But remember that Facebook is a place for social connection and interaction,
so don?t go overboard with SEO-rich text. Material that isn?t social won?t
hold your fans? attention, and can even cause abandonment.

Get Links to Facebook From Multiple Sources

As is the case with traditional SEO, getting links to your Facebook page is extremely beneficial. Links are like recommendations. If one friend recommends you eat at a certain restaurant, you’ll consider it. If a number of your friends echo that recommendation, you're sold. http://ping.fm/JEqTl
