I never thought that managing a Facebook page would be so hard. When we first got the assignment at the beginning of the semester I knew I would have to put work into it but I still thought it would be fairly simple.
After inviting most (if not all) of my Facebook friends one to two times I finally was able to get 30 likes. Yes! I finally was able to see the pages insights but then soon forgot about the page and stopped updating it regularly.
I decided making a twitter page to help promote the Facebook page would be a good idea. It was easy to pick up several followers and I pointed them in the direction of my page. This got me a few more likes but not for very long. Now I barely get retweets and no one on Twitter ever seems to make it to my Facebook page anymore.
This was rather discouraging. I can't seem to get any more than 30 or so likes. The task of managing and updating a Facebook page is write daunting and difficult and I have learned that the hard way.
At this point I don't want to stop updating this page. It's fun and I enjoy it. Even after this class is over I still plan on updating the page and hopefully it can grow a little more.
So what's the game plan? Well, I have set up a separate blog completely dedicated to Final Fantasy XIV to go in junction with the Facebook page. I've learned that I love blogging and I hope that's an incentive to keep any followers up to date on anything to do with Final Fantasy.
