Do you get referrals from facebook?

To be honest I do have 3 facebook accounts, one for personal use and the other two are for promotional purposes for I am active with microworkers and there are a lot of LIKE task so I did made 2 accounts out of that. Anyway I did post all my links on facebook, there are some who respond but I end up not getting even a single referral. Based on your experience, have you gotten any referrals in facebook? or do you think you will be able to fish out referrals in this social site?

So far I haven't had referrals through my facebook account. However, I really benefit from them a lot in terms of page views for the articles I've written online.

That's a clever idea actually, to have more than one account, and accounts specifically for earning purposes! I never even thought of that! But to answer your question... yes, I have considered the same thing, mostly to get some links to my article writer profiles (on Triond etc), but I never actually did it, because I couldn't figure out how I would make friends for my earning profile. I seriously do not want to bother my real life friends with promo stuff, because most of them would not appreciate it, and how do you make friends with people you don't know? How did you get friends for your 2 non-personal profiles?

I just search for some names then add them and some of their networks of friends add me as well so right now I have more than 500 friends in one of my promotional account. They did respond but I guess I need to post more to convince them.

Actually most people that read my post about my testimony how did I earn online are closed minded. Not unless you will show them what you already get or did you really have earned from online meaning proof of payments are not convincing enough because this people doesn't even have ideas what is paypal and if it is legit. I have this experience where in one guy have been interested in online job but when he started filling up the registration in paypal he stopped and did not continue because he had a doubt that he could be hacked or scammed by Paypal.

That's what I am saying above, most of these people are ignorant. So it is our challenge to introduce it to them the best way we could.

No, I don't use it for referral purposes. I just have one for personal use. Oh and another one for "gift giving" on games. I tried getting referrals before, but on Friendster. No luck, they're not even active.

Ive tried it several times but nothings happen. I think it not worth it to get referrals from facebook. Its better to have referrals from you close friends. It should be active to have commissions..

i think they just don't understand what is the purpose of your referrals. Sometimes social media is not a good way to get referrals.
