Track client's facebook page with Social

[paddydaddy]

I use SEOMoz for a client and want to track the client'sprogress on Facebook. But I can not get connected becasuse the facebook page is not my own.

How to solve this?

Hi Patrick

I would just log in to SEOMoz next time you are with your client and ask them to go through the process of granting permission to their Facebook explaining what you are doing and why. I don't see this being an issue with your client...

If there is an issue maybe demonstrate what connecting their account will give you access to - show them another campaign with Facebook connected if you have one?

The other solution is of course asking your client to grant you access as an admin of their FB page. It's a bit of a work around but it will work.

In my opinion it is always easier to get access to clients platforms..

Just be honest and say to them that without getting admin rights then you will be looking at their statistics blind and it would not be a great way for you to fully analyse their Page. Use an analogy " You cant expect an accountant to do a tax return if they can't see your accounting"

Hope that helps

Most business owners are concerned about handing over their facebook admin rights to their agencies. There are tools like sproutsocial or socialdefender you can use where the Facebook page owner can give enough permission to do your job without handing it over. They can sign up for these services and add you as a staff. Now facebook also has multiple permission levels. If you want to post and manage they just need to add you as an editor,  not admin.

Thank you all for the responses. I must make myself more clear on this. I can have the admin data of my client's facebook page but when I try to "Add the Facebook page you want to track for this campaign." (under the button "social") then SEOMoz says she wants to have rights of my own facebookpages because I am the owner of this SEOMoz license. When I answer "skip" then SEOMOz tells me that she can't keep track of those pages.
