So, Simone and I were chatting today about how people share their Hubs on Facebook. After perusing a couple of examples and pouring over some statistics, we came up with a few tips to consider when thinking about how to apply social media (ie facebook) to Hubs.
1. When you see Hubs written by others that you think are cool and interesting enough to share with your Facebook friends, you may want to choose “Share” instead of “Like.” Sharing a Hub creates a post in your wall with a preview blurb and image from the Hub like this:
Liking a Hub simply posts a brief mention like this:
See, sharing a Hub creates a more visible post on Facebook. You may also want to write something pertinent in the description.
Keep in mind that you want to share Hubs that your friends may actually be interested in reading. As Simone mentioned, “the goal is to get people to ‘like’ and comment on the things you share – if they do, your shares are more likely to end up in peoples’ home feeds…and more people will see it.”
On that note, if you do NOT get a lot of feedback on the things you share, reconsider your strategy – continuing to share and like things that nobody seems to be interested in (ie no comments nor “likes”) will make it more likely that your shares only show up on your own wall – and not your friends’ home feeds.

Didn’t know that about “share” vs “like” – thanks! And I do appreciate your mentioning “over-sharing” – that’s downright annoying; same goes for Tweeting. Kind of like calling “Wolf!”
I often forget to ‘like’ articles simply because the button is in an inconvenient place-at the top.
I think placing it with the other buttons makes much more sense.
Great tips on how to share and like on facebook for better results. I`ve blocked one or two friends because of over-sharing the same thing all the time 😦
btw, I recognize the hub about HD camcorders on that picture… I was hoping it would link to my hubpage 😀
Here I found some interesting opinion with which I agree. But there are also opinions that I would gladly podyskutował. Still, worth a page command.
