1. How to Write
Facebook Status
Updates

2. Be short and to the point

3. 225 characters = sweet spot

4. (over 33% of Facebook users see
your status update via a mobile device)

5. What can you say in 225 characters?

6. 1. Share your life

7. Even if it’s your business page, your
fans want to know your about YOU.

8. Personal updates receive
247% more comments

9. 2. Advice

10. ...shared 522% more than status
updates that aren’t advice related

11. Who does’t love to be told what to do,
right?

12. 3. Share content – link to interesting
articles that you find on the web

13. (even Sergey Brin and Mark Zuckerberg are
sharing and playing nicely - end of cold war?)

14. 4. Quotes

15. “I always have a quotation for everything - it
saves original thinking.” - Dorothy L. Sayers

16. 5. Entertainment

17. “Somebody... Tell a joke!”

18. Your goal should be to create updates
that get shares, likes, and comments.

19. But what about status updates that
contain links?

20. Don’t we want to bring facebook
traffic back to our sites?

21. DEFINITELY - share away!

22. Status updates with links always get
fewer likes, shares, and comments...

23. ...and that’s good news!

24. That means that your fans are off to
read your blog post

25. Rule of thumb: make sure that at least 2/3 of
your updates don’t contain links

26. Rotate them up with quotes, personal stories,
pictures, and business tips

27. And there you have it - Facebook
status updates on your speed dial
