I created a Facebook page for my blog, Website Wealth (on my profile), with the hopes that I could reach more people. It's a blog about legitimate ways to make money online, but not many people have liked the Facebook page. What can I do to direct more people to this page and hopefully my blog? Thanks!

I think, honestly speaking, you are running too fast to get friends and likes for your Facebook page. We are quite aware of each other's blogs, so I won't be speaking on that. But in my opinion, getting people to really like your FB page, takes a lot out of you. If you honestly want to bring in real likes - then the content and regular updation of the blog is the only way out. People should 'feel' that they really 'like' what you write.
But this is a scenario which may arise after some hard work and therefore it is difficult to predict how much time it may take. But what you can do is, add friends to your Facebook account. By the way, how many friends do you have there? You can message them to like your page and I am sure, you will find some success there. I also did the same thing for my blog and could muster some friends for my relationship blog.
But you know my actress blog. I have decided not to do anything different there to rope in friends. I have left it completely to the contents, time and luck. I am successful in getting 5-7 friends there. You too will improve. But time is a great factor in here and we are really not ready to wait.
In between, I have started a new blog which is about the latest trending news. I want to experiment with it in the same way by giving only quality content.

Hello, you make some good points. I guess I'm a bit impatient when it comes to my blog because I want to see good results NOW. But I'm sure that even for you it took some time before your blog started getting a lot of traffic. For now I'll just have to keep posting quality information that hopefully people like to read. Thanks for the advice abhi_bangal and thank you everyone!!!

Yeah, I agree I took time and I even will tell you that I was equally impatient like you. However, I was just aware of the fact that I have to be patient. So, I did not start any such discussion - it doesn't mean that I am downplaying your efforts, but instead focused on the contents of the blog. It was a tough journey mate. And I am aware how much efforts are needed in it.
Yes, you have to keep posting some quality information. And I suggest you don't just write web site reviews. I think not all are interested in knowing that. Your blog is about website wealth and there are a hundred ways of making wealth through websites and you are specifically dealing only with one or at the most a couple of other ways.
Try to expand your horizons and you will feel the difference yourself.

You can easily increase the popularity of your facebook page by following these steps-
i) Post frequent update on page wall.
ii) Suggest to your friends about the page.
iii) Tweet about it in twitter.
iv) Lastly add some useful info in your page.
I have tried these and now I am getting constant 'Like' to all of my facebook pages. I think it will also help you.

Try experimenting with playing online games. This will practically "encourage" you to accept more friends. And once your FB posts are visible to them, you can regularly post something about your blogs or links.
Of course, it's a numbers game. You will practically have to post something interesting that a greater number of people are likely to share.
Anyway, that's what I'm doing so far. I've been playing Mafia Wars and FarmVille to gain readership for my blogs. Of course, they are game-related blogs, but if I have enough outgoing links to my other blogs, I can reasonably expect some traffic for my "money" blogs.

You need to build up good social media traffic over your facebook account.
You can do this by sharing your FaceBook profile to other social networking sites such as twitter, so that your followers can also add you up as their contact over FaceBook.
You can also do add friends from your friends to build a social circle over your FaceBook account.
