We all want to increase Facebook likes for our individual blog posts and also our Facebook page. Especially when you’re a creating a brand for yourself, it’s important to avoid certain mistakes, just as much as taking the right actions.

Include Facebook Like Box On Your Website

One of the right actions to take, and one of the most fundamental for marketing your blog on Facebook, is to make sure you have a like button on your blog or website.

You can head over to the Facebook developer section here, and generate the code you’ll need.

From the above link, scroll down to find this box. Where you see the field “URL to Like”, enter your Facebook page address. That might be something like https://www.facebook.com/Bagstreesok.

You can also choose whether or not to show faces alongside the Like button, and also customize the width of the area for the Like button.

Click on ‘Get Code’ and you’ll be given some options. 

The easiest option is iframe.

Copy the code given and paste it into the location of your blog or website where you want the Like button to appear.
