Apparently some time ago I created one and never maintained it. Unfortunately the damn thing has to be linked to your personal FB page even if you try not to. I created a new account with my blog email address and the stupid thing somehow figured out that I was the other email address and linked the two together. I even logged out of my regular page. VERY annoying to say the least.
I had already deactivated the first page I created. Which takes 14 days, mind you. Stupid if you ask me. But who's asking me? I guess there's a delay, just in case you made a mistake. I'm not backing out. The page has 6 likes. Just 6! That is my fault. Really. But it's still sad. Very, very sad.
So I created a new one. Had a lot of difficulty with the photo for the page. I guess when my blog revamp happened over a year ago I was using a different computer. The image files are somewhere else now so I had to click and save from my blog to have a profile pic. What a hassle that was! The files wanted to save as png's and basic Facebook doesn't accept those files, then I had to change the saving files. This is all more than I can handle on a six hour nights sleep. Especially after working an eight and half hour shift today. With both kids with me.
Torture? Close to it. If you ask me, I wouldn't mind joining Little E with some sobbing and crying that he blessed me with this afternoon and through the evening. Bedtime couldn't have come fast enough for him. But here I sit, sharing my frustrations with you on my blog Facebook Fan page.
So tomorrow I get

I am horrible at all of this techy stuff too! There is so much learn and then once you learn it...it has changed again. I'm sorry I don't have any advice other than that, I tweet my own blog post updates and I do the same for my FB page. That way I know it is getting done and I didn't screw anything up in the process. Good Luck!
There are people who help with this.
I woulkdn't recommend auto-posting your feed b/c fb punishes you for that- your feed might not show up when people are scrolling through fb. It's better to go ahead and put your own link on it with a little note about the post. :)
Oh lawd, girl, this has me giggling! Not over your distress, but because this sounds like me in my own head! Like Shell said, I ended up not linking my feed to my fb page. I just go in a link individually...when I remember!
I feel your pain. I finally broke down and created a Facebook fan page, and after weeks of pimping it, I still only got 8 likes. I said eff it. Six months later, and it's still only at 12 likes. Gah. I am apparently the world's worst pimp.
Hope today went better for you!
ok. so... I'm still not that awesome at the facebook fan page- but I'm plugging away at it. Good luck. If you go into your settings... you can turn it so it doesn't show "who" you are. Good Luck
I think getting techie things set up is incredibly stressful! Hope it all worked out. Want me to come like you there? :)
It is frustrating! I think I have three likes. :( I have fallen off the wagon and need to finish it.
Thanks for the advice! Who do you know that can help?
I have been so lost lately. I'm still recovering from Spring Break, and family crisis'. I have yet to finish the class I took for helping me with content. I'm falling behind with my whole life. :(
Thanks! I am not taking it personally. I know it's partially my fault for not having numbers. It'll happen.
Thanks for the tip. I had no idea I could hide myself. :)
