What do those with arts and entertainment pages put on their Facebook welcome tabs? How do they use their custom landing page on Facebook?
To answer this question, I went to the Arts and Entertainment category of our own Facebook Business Pages Directory, to see which pages used these tabs, and how.
Facebook Welcome Tabs of Arts and Entertainment Pages
This artist’s welcome tab has beautiful rotating images and background on her. I might suggest larger, more readable typeface.
The TV show COPS uses a number of custom tabs. Its welcome tab is an event promotion for a Fans-only premiere party on Facebook, and indicates clear benefit to Liking.
Extravaganza Craft Productions
The arts and craft hub Extravaganza provides site and social media links on its welcome tab. They host this image on Photobucket. They describe benefits of a Like as notifications of blog posts, art festival and craft show listings, and “other information to make your booth more profitable.”
Using SocialApps HQ, the magazine Hopelights encourage you to Like their page and then provides a list of FB friends and a box to invite friends to Like the page too. Benefits to a Like are “minutes of inspiration daily.”
My Danish isn’t too good, but I’m guessing this is a page to help you find art. Their welcome page encourages Likes and suggests that the artist also does custom work?
