Facebook Fan Pages: Like Versus Becoming A Fan

Are people more willing to “Like” a business than “Become a Fan” of it? Time will tell.

Facebook is at it again, folks!

Yesterday, Facebook introduced the LIKE button for business fan pages. Don’t worry — the “like” button works exactly the same way as the “become a fan” button. The thought is that people are more apt to “become fans” of celebrity pages, bands, or service profiles while “liking” business fan pages.  By clicking the “Like” button on a fan page, the hope is that this will make the fan page more inclined to connect with you; as you have given the fan page a stamp of approval by “liking” it and are opening up your profile to the business fan page.  Have you seen this before?
