You Can Geo Target Your Facebook Fan Page Posts – Awesome!

First Up – Big Up’s to Chris Clayton for pointing this out!

I have been trying to use geotargeting (only sending a message to people in a particular location) using the Facebook Fan Page Feature,

It was a dismal failure.

Then Chris pointed out to me I could do this on posts and slap me down and call me sally – it works!

You can use this to target meet-up’s advertise location specific events – you can even go down into the suburb level in some countries!!

Here’s how you do it

.

When you do a status update – there is a button set to everyone – low and behold – you can push it and select Custom!

When you do you see this.

You just dial in where you want to send a message and off you go.

As an Admin – you see this….

But the Fans can only see the geo-targeted message – which in this case is a good thing :-)

And the best thing – it looks as though Facebook gives the updates full spread!

Awesome!
