What is a Facebook App?

"Building and app on Facebook gives you the opportunity to deeply integrate into the core Facebook experience. Your app can integrate with many aspects of Facebook.com, including news feed and notifications... " you can read more on developers.facebook.com

In simple language, it is what you see on the left hand side of your Facebook page underneath your "Wall", "Info" and other standard Facebook links that appear in that spot. They all link to pages inside Facebook offering different functionality and experience for users. We can basically do anything that you can do on a website and put it right inside your Facebook page.

The main reason to have your own App is to run promotions/competitions or display your most compelling offers/messages. Using the "Wall" has limitations as your posts always move down the page as new posts and comments are made on your "Wall". When a new person lands on your page, they may not see the message that you want them to see or engage with your offer/post as they did not see it. the second is that Facebook says that you have to use a App to run any kind of promotion. This is due to legal liability reasons to keep Facebook safe from dubious promotions and fraudulent activity conducted by users on their website.

Design Reaction builds custom Apps so that your most compelling messages always gets to the right people and encourages more people to "like" your page. Your promotions page is set as the first thing that people see with a call to action to encourage activity.

You call the App whatever you like, Eg. Promo Offer, Click here to WIN, Members only etc. This enables you to share your most compelling offers with your audience without having to keep track of your posts which moves down with time as you make new posts.

How does it work?

When a new person finds your business page, they land on the default page that you can set in your page settings (this is usually the "Wall"). With our Facebook Apps, you can set your landing page to land on your most compelling offer (Your promotions landing page). This encourages people to "like" you page if they like what they see and also take up your compelling offer/or promotion. This makes users more engaged as they have a better understanding of what the benefits are of liking your page.

The next step is the content. We all know the importance of having a great website these days. it is becoming more and more important to have the same content available inside Facebook.
