Now that you have your Facebook fan page up and running. And you have a steady growing number of fans by the thousands. It is time to make sure your content is not readily available to everyone on the internet. Exclusive content will strike a curiosity with non-fans. They have to click the ‘Like’ button on your fan page before they can access the content. This will help you to increase your fans count crazily and you can do many things with your fans in many ways you can imagine.

Making content exclusive only to fans is easy. Follow the steps I did below to hide content for the Make a Website fan page.

Hiding content on the fan page is done through FBML or Facebook Markup Language. A specific code is added to make content on the page be fan-exclusive.

Adding FBML to your Fan Page

1. Go to the following URL: http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=4949752878 to add the FBML application to your page.
2. Click Add to my Page as shown below.
   
3. Then choose the fan page you want the FBML box/tab added to.
   
4. Go to your fan page. Look for the newly created FBML tab, sometimes it is hidden if you have too many tabs added to your fan page profile.
   
5. Now, click on Edit Page.
   
   Look for FBML on the list and click Edit (again).
   
6. Enter the necessary content and code to make the page exclusive only to fans. Click Save Changes after and voila! Your content cannot be accessed by non fans.
   

THE FBML CODES

Content for Fans Only

On your Static FBML page, start with this code:

<fb:fbml version=”1.1?>

Then wrap the content you want to hide from non-fans within the tags as shown below:

<fb:visible-to-connection></fb:visible-to-connection>

Then end your page with:

</fb:fbml>

All the content contained within the following tags – <fb:visible-to-connection> and </fb:visible-to-connection> will be exclusive to fans only.

Show a Different Content to Fans and Non-Fans

<fb:fbml version="1.1">
<fb:visible-to-connection>
Fans will see this content.
<fb:else>Non-fans will see this content.</fb:else>
</fb:visible-to-connection>
</fb:fbml>
