Yeah, that might be where Team NZ stuffed up in the America's Cup?

Well I first went when I was 13 but missed it a couple of years when I didn't have a motorbike, or at least one that would make it, but at least one of those years it was televised. Must have been around 1984.

Nowadays I cottoned on to staying the night so you can have a beer in the sun afterwards.

Arsebook? What's that?

Preorder tickets these days & the once a week spam from orgynizers works well.

Give me the tickets. Infact, give me a fucking motorbike. Ill sign up ten times and like you, so you can feel like youve achieved something.

How much wood could a woodchuck chuck?
Quite a fucking bit, or he wouldnt be a very good woodchuck.

People are a lot more conscious about spamming their friends these days.. Most likes wins competitions are really annoying, I think Biggles has single handedly ruined all most likes wins competitions in our small community lol

Also the reach your posts get if you dont have that many friends is not huge so you need to get someone like BRM or Kiwirider to post it on their page so you get more exposure. You could get Track and Road Race riders to post it but pages like that are very careful not to post anything if it were to look like an ad to get Electric Spider more likes because then it would seem like they are spamming their friends. You would need to offer something and have it go via your site or be originally posted by you so it is subtle advertising behind a major cherry....

Social network marketing is extremely effective, thats why these companies are worth billions and that is why marketing companies charge thousands. Its a trade in itself, sorta like a Marketing graduate posting on a forum.. I have wired up my house but the lights dont go what am I doing wrong??

Dont give up, just keep trying and see what works

Wot he said ...

I never saw it - so the social network did not reach that far .. adn I prolly wouldn't have done it anyway - I refuse the let the companies badger/bully or seduce me into clicking "like" and "share" ... I refuse to be their publicity mouthpiece

Well I don't know what I am doing wrong. I've liked Cemetery Circuit's page but can't tag them in your post Spyda.

Okay; ten days later not a single piccie so changed tact and now have offered a couple of tickets to anyone who posts on my companies page, The Electric Spider LTD, tag a couple of pages and most likes wins.

Three days later I've had two entries and a like each.

I'm trying to promote our sport here as well as get people noticing my business but seem to be barking up the wrong tree. Now a huge number of people on my FB are into bikes particularly Road Racing are they not interested in sharing THEIR sport amongst their friends either as are a couple of people whom I either sponsor now or have done in the past.
Not having a bitch here just can't see the wood for the trees, what am I doing wrong

(no I haven't paid the money to promote it)

what is Facebook ?
