Now Find Niche Experts on Facebook

Do you like http://Twitter.EzineArticles.com?

Are you on Facebook?

Then you are going to LOVE http://Facebook.EzineArticles.com!

Social Networking is probably THE hottest thing on the Internet right now, with Twitter and Facebook leading the charge.

Starting TODAY you can go to http://Facebook.EzineArticles.com and find experts on Facebook who are also in your niche! This is one Facebook strategy that helps you build a fan base of like-minded experts like yourself.

(3) Quick Steps To Leverage This Strategy:

Step #1) Navigate over to http://Facebook.EzineArticles.com.

Step #2) Scroll down until you see the title Filter Options near the bottom of the left-hand navigation window. Below that is the Category button. Clicking on that button reveals a very powerful feature that will open near the top of the page: Filter by Category.

Step #3) Clicking on the drop-down menu allows you to select your category of interest and also opens up a drop-down menu for the subcategories within that particular category. By picking a subcategory, you see only the EzineArticles expert authors in that specific niche who are currently signed up to be listed on this page.

Optional: You can change the SORT order by Articles, Authors or Category. The default sort order is by Category.

Example: You are a YOGA expert and you want to identify all Facebook members who also wrote articles in the YOGA category. Following the 3 steps above would bring you to this page of Yoga/EzineArticles/facebook members. From here, you can click to view their profiles and then connect with others in your same niche.

This new tool can help you identify and connect with people in your niche of interest – both colleagues and competitors *without* having to discover each of their Facebook profiles one at a time… saving you loads of time.

Would you like to be listed here? It’s easy!

  1. If you haven’t already, sign up for an EzineArticles account and a Facebook account.
  2. Log into the EzineArticles Members Area and edit your biography by selecting Profile Manager and Edit Author Bio from the main menu.
  3. Enter your Facebook account information into the “Facebook URL” field. This should be the link you see when you view your profile on Facebook.
  4. Complete any other sections of your biography you wish and click the button at the bottom of the page to save your changes.
  5. Submit a quality, original article through the Members Area.

While you’re at it, become a Fan of EzineArticles by clicking on the Become a Fan button. This will bring you to the EzineArticles Expert Author Facebook Community Page (aka: our “Official Fan page”). Then just click on the Sign Up button in the upper left-hand corner.

This is so darn funny.. I saw your emails and thought to myself, “Ohh gads, here is another thing I MUST do!” I want to make sure I do whatever it takes to get my name and art out there, but sometimes I think I am going coo coo with it all.

Soo I started to follow directions, so kindly given, and realized I ‘already’ did it! Soo Yay!

THANK YOU for ALL EzineArticles does!

Kathy!

Right! This new thing should require ZERO work of any of our members who already setup their Facebook profile as part of their social media tools in their EzineArticles extended author bio.

What about adding Ecademy to your list of ‘how to’s'? There are zillions of social bookmarking sites too like Stumbleupon, Propeller, Digg, Reddit, etc etc.
