      My experience was a little different. I targeted and refined legitimate ads on Facebook to potential readers in the Philippians. They landed on a custom Facebook tab that encouraged them to "like" the page. Once they connected I have them move to a "Best of Our Website" page. The end results was about 3 cent per fan page follower and most of them visit our site immediately. These have stuck around and most visit the website again within one week of their initial like.

      I've tried similar systems in a few other countries, but the cost was usually closer to 8 cent.

        I tried a sweepstakes. The prize was a $620 electronic device for athletes. The majority of entries were either fake people or couch potatos who spent countless hours entering sweepstakes and would never consider using the device. Lesson learned.

          I would not advise on buying fans because usually you end up with low quality fans who have no engagement with the page, 95% of the time they are fake profiles too. Really why buy a bunch of fake fans, the only benefit is if you want to make your brand look like it has some likes! 
          But overall in the future your page becomes a waste land where people do not even comment or any thing due to the fact you have no real customers to engage with.

            Numbers make a visual impact but there will be no interactivity or brand loyalty...
