We all know what an incredible marketing resource Facebook can be, especially with the ability to embed your Showit site itself into Facebook. With that to say, there are a few things that can be done to your fan page to make it stand out a bit more. One of these include a custom Facebook application, that can then be turned into a tab and made the default landing page for your new Facebook fans. Using this application you’ll be able to track the growth of your fan page application by how many fans are using it! Awesome!  Take our fan page below for example (make sure your logged out before clicking the link.)

We chose to keep the design a pretty basic two-column layout, displaying a welcome message, latest tweets, last 5 blog posts, a few feature builds, and a “share with friends” widget. We wanted to keep our page simple, but at the same time engaging. While our fan page doesn’t have any Showit elements built into it, the option is definitely there.

SMD will be offering custom Facebook fan page designs starting at $250, and will go up from there depending on the level of complexity. Our page is a prime example of what yours would look like for $250, while a more expensive page in the $500 range would include it’s own sub navigation; a mini site with it’s own navigation inside a Facebook tab.

We’re excited to be offering this new service, and we can’t wait to see where it takes us!

*Book a custom Facebook fan page design before the 20th and receive $50 off! This offer is only good for the next 72 hours and will end at 1:06 PM, Wednesday January 20th, 2010.
