So many times we think that growing a facebook page organically from 0 to thousands or even millions of followers is not possible.
When you create a new page, there is always the tendency to give up easily, but when you stay consistent and share your posts, your facebook page will begin to grow gradually.
So, the aim of writing this post is to help our small creators or beginners who are worried about building their facebook pages. I believe that this write up will help you.This single write up is from my experiences, how I built some of my pages, then from other research about facebook growth.
The Truth About How One Can Build His Facebook Page
The truth about how one can build his facebook page is that it is never easy. Growing a Facebook page requires dedication, seriousness and consistency.
It demands patience and strategy too. So, despite the challenges, it is very possible to build your page organically. Hence, in this write up there are fifteen ways you can actually grow your facebook page. These methods are practical, with tested and trusted methods. They are:
1.Choose A Niche
Many people who want to do content creation enter into it without knowing the need to choose a Niche. Before you venture into this, you have to choose your area of specialization. A niche is simply your focus, area of interest or your area of particular concern.
Any facebook page that grows fast focuses on one clear Niche. You do not jump from one area of interest to another.
For example, one can face niches like Sports, motivation, faith/christian inspiration, relationship tips and advice, health tips, finance, study tips, bible reflection and comedy. They can also vlog on any viral contents and online bloggers, or lifestyles.
These help to define what your pages are talking about and people follow you when they know exactly the value they will receive from the facebook page.
2. Boost Your Page/Post to train the Algorithm.
I have actually discovered that many pages today that are prominent actually used facebook boost. Immediately, you create your page, boost the page first for at least 20 to 30 days. Then while boosting the page, keep on posting every day.
This will train the algorithm to find who is actually interested in your and the type of people to be reaching whenever your post. And at least once in a week, boost one particular post for one week.
Use this until you being to see real interactions on your facebook posts. This means, it is good to map out some money for your post.
3. Post Short Video or Reels Consistently.
Short videos or reels push faster on facebook. Commit to posting short videos around or within your reels every time. Facebook and youtube love reels. Post like 2 to 5 reels in a day. Let your reel length be like 7-20 seconds or at least 30-45 seconds everyday.
Use Quick tips about something, short lessons from an experience, or readings, quotes that are inspiring, bible quotes with a background music, and some short stories. Facebook algorithm loves reels and pushes it further both to followers and non followers.
4. Trigger Emotion in Your Contents.
Check and you will see that every post that goes viral triggers curiosity and emotion. Many facebook posts that go viral are those that trigger a kind of feeling, curiosity, actions and reactions. So, see what you will do.
Make a post first, and show it to someone or read it and check how such posts can make you feel. If it creates laughter or humour, inspiration, shock, surprise, curiosity or emotion , then share it. We have to know that people who share posts always trigger or move their spirit.
5.Your first 3 Seconds is very Important
Use your first three seconds to hook your audience. Capture their attention within the first three seconds of your video. That first three seconds will either retain people or push them away. So, this will determine if the post is shareable. Examples of hooks one can use are;
Do you know that …., Most people do not actually know that…, Quit doing this if you love your…,
This practice automatically changed my life and I will like you to learn, If you are struggling to succeed in life, listen to this, If you are trying to … pay attention especially to the last details. Etc.
6. Post At Least 3-5 Times A Day.
It is good to post multiple times a day on your facebook page. When you take time to study most viral and popular facebook pages, you will discover that they post multiple times per day.
Most pages on facebook post multiple times per day. Have a posting schedule such as: Morning: 7–9 AM, Afternoon: 1–3 PM, Evening: 7–10 PM. This will automatically change your page. Consistency also trains the algorithm.
7. Use Storytelling
Stories are very powerful. We have to know that Stories connect people easily. Stories connect deeper than facts. Compile your daily lessons and compile them to daily blog, page and facebook posts. To give a powerful story that can easily connect with people, follow what I call PSTL format.
The format is to state a problem, the struggle, then the turning point and lesson. Stories easily, create shares and saves.
If anything happens in your life that is worth sharing, inspiring and can trigger emotion, share the story. Write it in a way that it will be more compelling and trigger people to drop their comments. It could be a testimony on how God saved you, it could be a story of a betrayal etc, any story that can give lessons, feel free to share. Example format:
- Problem
- Struggle
- Turning point
- Lesson
7. Create Shareable Quote Images.
We have to know that quotes from prominent and popular people can make your pages grow extremely fast. Every day, just decide to post quotes every afternoon.
How do you do that, get any of your pictures, upload the picture on your chatgpt and paste the quote on the chatgpt, prompt gpt to add the quote and the image together, maybe image on the right and quote on the left, to be downloaded as image for your facebook past. You can tell gpt the background that you want. Chatgpt will do this for you.
Generate as many quotes as possible. Use those image posts for your facebook posts. Find motivational, inspirational, bible, faith and life quotes. People love sharing quotes to their timeline. You can as well use tools like canva and capCut.
8. Engage With Comments Immediately.
Try as much as possible to engage your audience. Try and reply to comments within the first hour. Facebook loves it when you engage with comments immediately. Use replies like “Thank you for sharing this.” “What do you think about this?” “thank you for your comments, remember to share” etc. This increases engagement signals to the algorithm.
9. Ask Questions in Your Posts.
Do ask questions on your page. You can use it as your night posts. Remember that questions create comments.Example, after posting a video or text, you can ask “Do you agree?”, “What would you do in this situation?” “Type YES if you believe this.” We have to understand that the more comments the more the reach.
10. Use Trending Sounds in Reels.
I recently discovered that trending sounds help the algorithm recognize viral patterns and as a result pushes your video to be seen. Find Facebook Reels that are trending, Instagram Reels and TikTok trends, use them on your post or make a video around them.
11. Recycle Viral Content
Successful pages reuse viral formats. Now If a post gets 10k+, 50k+ and 100k+ and try to create similar content again. For example get the same topic but different wording. It will help you to go viral and build your facebook page.
12. Collaborate With Other Pages.
One of the easiest ways to build your page is to ask a popular creator to feature you or drop a like or comment on your page. You can partner with pages in the same niche. For example, Tag each other, feature each other’s posts or share collaborations.
Hence, this introduces you to new audiences. But even if you cannot reach the creator, recreate what that creator posted, and tag his or her page. On the post. Mention the page while replying to his or her page. This will bring his audience to you and many may likely follow you.
13. Turn One Idea Into 10 Posts
Do you know that one idea can become many posts? For Example: Topic Discipline. You have Posts like :
- Discipline quote
- Short video
- Story
- Question
- Tips list
- Reel
- Meme
- Motivational speech clip
- Personal lesson
- Carousel post
This multiplies content easily.
14. Create a Signature Content Style
I have also discovered that Viral pages often have recognizable formats. For example, they have the same background, same font, same intro music, same music multiple times, same theme color, same original settings etc. This will make people recognize your content immediately.
15. Stay Consistent for 12–24 Months.
This is extremely important but this is where many pages fail because they quit early. Here, is the Real growth pattern, the growth from 0 – 10k followers is always slow. Then from 10k – 100k is moderate, it continues to grow gradually. Then 100k – 1M is very fast.
Hence, Facebook will begin to show your pages easily to people. Once a page goes viral, growth accelerates.
Master these Example Growth Strategies.
a.For the Month 1–3, Post 3–5 reels daily, you can have like 0 – 5k followers. Do share immediately you post to your facebook, messenger and whatsapp statuses and to your friends in those platforms.
- For Month 4–6. Some videos will surely go viral, it may increase to 5k – 50k followers
c.Month 7–12: this is the Viral growth stage. You can have 50k – 300k followers
If you continue like this in the Year 2, to reach 300k – 1M followers is possible
16. Study viral pages in your niche daily.
Take your time and pick up someone in your niche. Observe their hooks, their captions, their video styles and their posting frequency, then improve on what they posted. Use that same style on their own. You can recreate their post in another way.
