Top Five Reasons to Not Promote Your Content on FaceBook!

Are You Promoting Your Content? Avoid FaceBook! Here's Why!

I've found that using FaceBook to promote your content can be very effective for any good topic. Some people don't want that. They'd rather sit in obscurity. They'd rather just offer excuses as to why they're not pushing AC, and their own works, all over the web.
 So for those folks, I offer my contribution, to your handy-dandy excuse list. Please keep this in your back pocket for reference:

5.) Taxes-If you promote your content on FaceBook well you just might make enough money to pay taxes. While money can be good, taxes are bad because tax preparation services employ the next reason:

4.) Accountants with comb overs-If you use FaceBook properly to promote your content you could end up making enough money (with like...three or four other sources of automated income as well...) to need an accountant...with a comb over!! For those of you unfamiliar with both FaceBook, and what a "comb over" is, please just keep an eye on the direction of growth of my ear hair. (WHAT?! What else can I do with it? It's UNSTOPPABLE!!! Sheeesh!)

3.) 24 hour work days-Success with content production and proper promotion of your content on FaceBook may...no...will lead to the inevitable 24-hour workday! 24 solid hours a day of living your life and picking up good topics. Of course, the labor part, of your day will only be between one hour, and as many as you care to invest typing, but you'll be living 24 hours a day! What ever happened to the good old days of flopping on the couch, in front of the boob-tube, and anesthetizing yourself with a six-pack of low grade alcohol grog, at the 'end' of each work day?

2.) Parties and fun-Why on earth anyone would want to have that much laughter, that many smiles, and that many new connections with so many hearts, is just beyond me. Are you kidding? Why would I wanna meet any fun-loving, twenty-something, college girls, for a little bit of 'chill- time,' anywhere? What a question! Oh! That reminds me...

Great piece here Don! I love the way you write. It seems that I opened a Facebook account and had such a hrd time navigating it that I quit trying,but I might be thinking about some other site. I will check it out again. Thanks for reminding me of it again. Johnny Yuma

Great article! Of course, not all of us have hundreds of Facebook friends like you do, Don. ;)

Kristin. My best performing and paying pieces have proven to be the ones seo'd properly in the first place. FB's a wonderful tool too though.

I've never done any Facebook promotions. It sounds like it could be a useful tool. Thanks for reminding me.

if i put in a 24 hour work week i'd hope that i'll get more than 3 bucks a pop for an article! are there any tips or tricks to get the higher payout, or is that just a few steps away from getting a job as a real freelance writer with the amount of work i'd have to put in? other sites? what? is this mic on? lol.

I don't have Facebook, just Bebo. Maybe I could try promoting there.
