2.Advice on Posting:
Social networking is all about creating connection. Businesses and organizations created a social networking page in order to create new levels of connection with their customers. So, the best advice in posting is to only post things that directly communicates with customers and provides them some value. Advertisements are fine as long as it provides customers with something new that they wouldn't have been aware of. Photos and quizzes are also great as long as it provides customers with some form of positive interaction. It all boils down to ensuring that there's a positive connection, so things such as spamming, blunt ads, etc that people have seen a million times fail to create a connection and should be avoided.
3.Great Professional FB Pages:
The Rolling Stones - I am a big Stones fan and their FB page is very well kept. It gives its "fans" some exclusive content, they frequently post stuff online and from time to time honor other musicians also. http://www.facebook.com/DietCoke#!/therollingstones?sk=wall&filter=2
Coca-Cola - It is the biggest brand in the world. So obviously, whatever they do that represents their brand has been polished to perfection. Coca Cola has been around for ages and this is how they are still the biggest and the most recognized brand in the world. See for yourself: http://www.facebook.com/cocacola?sk=app_161193133389
