"Either if you have just landed to thrilling London life, or you are a regular of the secret treats the city has to offer, EYP events are definitely a must on your calendar.

For newcomers is a great way to meet interesting people in a relaxed environment, and start stretching your social wings. For the self-proclaimed social animals is a natural environment to explore, see and be seen.

Whatever your situation, be sure youâ??ll always feel welcome to this community of approachable, professional and fun seeking people.

Tip to feel at ease: wear your best smile and donâ??t forget your business cards! ;)"

1. Pages are public.  Most of Facebook is behind a login, preventing search engines from indexing.  However, some Fan pages are not behind a login and thus search engines can index the page.  Hopefully, people will stumble on the result in SERPs, visit the Facebook page, and then get to your site via the link (see reason #2).

2. Pages include links.  Because the pages are public, you can get some nice facebook.com link credit.  You canâ??t use an anchor text, but hey, itâ??s free.

3. Send â??updates to fansâ??.  One of the greatest features is that you can send â??updatesâ?? to fans whenever you want.  Itâ??s a nice way of building a database of interested users.  Send messages about new products, updated website, etc.

4. You control the page.  Making the page before a Fan or a competitor is critical.  You want to be able to send the messages, edit or remove sections, and control the information to an extent.

5. News feed.  When a someone joins a Fan page, itâ??s published in their News feed for all their to read (unless they have turned this off).  It makes someone joining your Fan page somewhat viral.

6. Itâ??s free and easy.  Making a Fan page takes just a few minutes â?? add some information, URL, and upload the logo and youâ??re done.  You can make your page
