    • Paid – myarticleexpress.com
    • Accumulate likes on your blog
      • I like to get my articles written at iwriter.com
      • iwriterpage

      • Here is an example of great social proof where the front page of the Huffington post has 6,217 Facebook shares on their blog post:
      • huffpost1

      • With the same Article Stack technique we have over 100,000 likes on our blog www.costaricayoga.org/blogcostaricapageexample
      • Don’t Make This Mistake
        • If your blog or website does not have tons of traffic and you aren’t getting many likes on your post then don’t let your developer put 1 like button per post without doing the article stack concept at the top of your blog.
        • Most developers will put in a widget that generates a new like button counter per post. That’s ok only if you ALSO put 1 main like button counter at the top of your blog that can accumulate likes:
          mistake1
      • Here we have 1 main like blog counter on top of ALL of our blog posts:
      • onelikecounter

      • Action Item: Create Your Article Stack
        • Turn your existing blog into an article stack or create a new blog page using this URL: http://develpers.facebook.com/docs/reference/plugins/like/
        • Copy and paste your url in the “URL to like” space on Facebook developers example: I would paste www.costaricayoga.org/blog here NOT each individual blog
        • Use that code at the very top of your blog.
        • Each time you post a new blog you can still drive traffic from Facebook to the same link, but people will see your most recent blog so it will get new likes.
