5 Keys to Increasing Social Organic Reach

Our reach is organic - unpaid reach results. How can you increase reach without paying for Facebook ads? Here are 5 keys we feel increased Kawartha Lakes Mums reach in April. How did your reach grow?  
1. Fantastic Fans. Kawartha Lakes Mums readers are the number one key to our increased organic Facebook reach.
Did you know we try to pin a discussion question each day on our Facebook page? The discussion questions welcome Fans to share their links when they take part in the discussion of the day, and when our Facebook friends participate in discussion questions, Facebook rewards everyone taking part by sharing that post by showing the discussion to more people.
We made greater use of our Top Fans App from BooYah! To recognize our top likers, commencers, movers, posters and fans.
We are looking for even more ways to make our Facebook page more enjoyable for Fans.  To help our Fab fans find more relevant content on Facebook we added new albums to our Facebook page in April - Including a Coupon Exchange, and City of Kawartha Lakes Businesses, and Businesses Serving City of Kawartha Lakes. 
Facebook Viewers Mostly - Ontario Women

2. Offering Pinned Conversations - Did you know when you participate in a conversation more people will find out about your business? The more comments on a post, the more of our fans, Facebook will show the page too. Friends are welcome to strike up a conversation on any post, but pinning a conversation starter to our FB each day, makes it easier to find for all our friends.
3. Paying attention to the reach of other pages before we share. This is a tip we picked up on Business Blogger. Did you know that if you share a post from a page that has more than 10% of its fans talking about it, some of that reach juice rubs off on your page?
4. Paying attention to when our readers are most likely to be online. When are most of your readers online? Ours are online mostly from 8:30am am to 10pm, There are a few discrepancies from day to day - Mondays for example people tend to be more online around mid- morning, and Saturdays, more are on late at night.
Here is our reader pattern what's yours like?

By paying closer attention to when our audience is online we were able to avoid Facebook sending posts out, getting no response, then not showing it to more readers. Did you know you can schedule posts right from Facebook? You can also schedule sharing items from other pages too. Just copy the link to the post, write a bit about it, paste the link to the item you want to share, then select "schedule." Voila! You did it!
5. Observing the types of posts more readers are interested in. Most of the posts we shared that had pictures got the greatest reach, so we started adding more posts with pictures. Which types of posts do your readers engage with the most?
