What do you do when you’ve previously seen a post on someone’s Facebook page and you just can’t find it again. As you know, Facebook pages do not really have good navigation.

Say you’ve been to my Internet Network Marketing Training Facebook page in the past and saw a post about Reasons for using WordPress on your blog. You go back to the page a few weeks later, and the post is buried on an old page.

How do you find the post without going through all the pages one by one?

You do this – go to google.com and in the search box type:

“keyword(s)” site:facebook.com/FanPageName    

To find posts about “wordpress” on my fanpage, you would type in the following, in the google search box:

wordpress site:facebook.com/mlminternetnetworkmarketingtraining

As usual, I love your feedback. Write below in the comments to let me know if this tip helps you find your way around Facebook pages. Let me know of any tips you have on your blog or facebook page, that will help everyone.

Hi Julienne,
thanks for the post. I would love to connect with on Skype as well. I might have some questions on FB. By the way what do you think about FB Places – is that a good thing? New Lauch

Talk to you soon,
Leelja

Hi Leelja, thanks for visiting me here and for contacting me on Skype. FB places sound like a great idea, especially for local business like restaurants and places where people meet. I’m in Australia, so Facebook places haven’t rolled out to us here yet.

Cool tip. It’s useful for blogs and other websites where content ages too. I tried it by searching for a keyword on my website to see what it came back with. It is a good tool to see how Google has indexed and ranked your pages against each other for a keyword. I didn’t know about this capability of Google before. Thanks.

Hi Julieanne!

Thanks for inviting me back to your Blog…your topics are very helpful. :)

You know, a lot of times solutions to things tend to be right in front of our face, BUT, until someone shows us how to find the correct solution…they remain a mystery!!

Have a highly inspired day…your tribal friend Steven Suchar

How fascinating we should meet at this time, as i am just learning about internet promotion for my book, This Bird Flew Away (January 27 2011) and I find it all quite daunting. Do you work with authors and their books? Lynda Martin

Hi Lynda, congratulations on the launch of your new book! The internet would be the perfect place to promote it. I work mostly with network marketers, but we also promote our e-books on the internet. Is your book also in E-book format? Are you going to publish it on Amazon?
