Hey guys how are you hope you had a great weekend.
I have been playing around with some of this facebook iframe stuff different templates, WSO’s and a great plug in that I want to talk about today.
This is by far the easiest of anything I have used and I am really pleased with the results.
The video is a little long but I promise by the end you will have the plug in set up and will be able to create your application needed to add the tab to your page.
Grab a drink and chips and enjoy the show…
Pretty easy isn’t a couple of changes I made to the page after the video. I got rid of the digg digg plug in and I added a like button.
If you have the digg digg plug in and want to leave it thats fine. I got rid of it for mainly aesthetics thought it pushed the content to far under the fold for me it’s a personal choice.
By the way this doesn’t affect your plug ins for your normal post.
Find the Show Advanced button click then make these changes in the first 2 categories. (This is to disable the digg digg you will have to experiment for other plug ins.)
Find Show Advanced in the first section select dd_content_hook. In the second section select dd_print_css
And you should be good sorry for no screen shots they kept acting up.
Have any suggestions or experiences with new iframe?
Would love to hear them and any other internet marketing advice in the comments below.
If you found this helpful please click on the facebook and twitter buttons you see.
Also check the final results of the like page tab.
Thanks so much for the visit.

Hi Steve,
I’m sure everyone else already knows what the FB tab is, but I’m not sure. Obviously the tabs in FB are “Photos, Info,” etc., so could you please tell me the big picture here? The tab buttons are small — so I’m wondering why you want an image or another creation on it. Or are you talking about something else? This is not critical. I simply don’t know!
Sure Sherry I would be glad to. The point of the tab is that if configured correctly when someone lands on your like page and have not liked your page they will come to this designated landing page where they will be asked to like the page and if you choose you can have an opt in form in place to take their information for a most of the time free offer that they would like. Quite a unique feature no other social media site really allows that. Also they can just be extra “pages” if you will on your like page with additional info and offers. Hope that helps.
Steve
So the “tab” isn’t a tab at all, but a “page.” And it becomes the landing page for those who have not opted in. Ok, if that’s it, I get it.
And your comment about deleting the Digg Digg was on FB and not WordPress? I didn’t even know one could put Digg on FB!
Yes Sherry that would be the best way to explain it as another page on a website or blog. As far as the content not sure how that happened! Thanks for the heads up.
Thanks for sharing. I am doing my research now for the best way I want to create mine. There seems to be a few options I have found. I am looking for the easiest yet controllable way. Thanks.
Hello Emily well I hope this helped. What is great is there is a ton of information. Visit the warrior forum when you can as well.
Steve
Wow, what a great sharing. I haven’t tried that plug-in before and even haven’t heard. Now i know I’ll gonna apply and use it. Thanks it for contribution.
Your very welcome. I hadn’t heard of until a few weeks ago I hope it helps and it’ surprisingly easy. Thanks for the visit.
Steve
Steve,
Nice tutorial. Tabs have been sorely missed in facebook for some time and I’m glad you put this together.
Good job.
Hello Gary
I agree with you 100% glad to help in some small way. Take care.
Steve
Hi Steve,
Thank you for the great training! This is information that I really needed to know. I will bookmark your post and return when I get my content together!
All the best, Linda
Great Linda I know the video is a little long but once you go through it making tabs is very easy.
Steve
This is a great tutorial. I have been wondering how to do tabs on Facebook. I am going to try it. Thanks
Thank you Melodie I really appreciate that and glad you found it useful.
Steve
Steve, I’ve got my glass of water & crave blocker bar in hand.
Thanks for teaching me more about this WP plugin.
I appreciate the time you took to put this video training out.
(Out of experience, I know it took more then 19 minutes to put it all together). I’ve been playing around with the Social Networks Academy iframe template, and this post really gave me some great new ideas.
I know SEO traffic isn’t everything, but you may want to consider including the name of the wordpress plugin “Facebook Tabs” and the word “Facebook Iframe” in the title and the body of the article. I checked Google and I could not find a better tutorial then this one, these keywords will help drive more traffic to your blog. If you check Google Keyword Tool, you’ll notice the word “Facebook Iframe” has 33,000 searchs with almost NO competition. It’s a literal gold mine
Thanks again !!
Thank you John I will have to repost it then and give it a facelift. I was in a hurry to get it done thanks for the info.
Steve
Hello Steve,
Great instructional post and pretty easy to follow. I am currently using blogger. I definitely am missing out on the capabilities of a wordpress blog and the neat pluggins.

Marlon you know you have to do what works for you. If blogger is getting your message out then that is great. I just read a post of yours and the blog is very clean and nice and looks good but yes as far as plug ins like this and onlywire there are some bonuses that you don’t get.
Steve
I was wondering what an iframe was coz I kept seeing emails and events about it but just didn’t have the time to explore more. Your post and video are valuable! It keept me updated on what an iframe is and you also went out of your way to show us step by step on how to actually add and implement it to our pages! Thanks, Steve!
Cherrie Bautista
No problem Cherrie I am glad that the content helped you in someway. It is always encouraging to read that thanks for your visit.

Hi Steve,
What I don’t like about Facebook buttons is that they slow down the loading speed of my website. I tried several solutions but they are very important and can’t miss from there.
Great video, I still use the digg digg plugin but I’ll consider some other options.
I love your website, some really great stuff here, it’s always a pleasure to come back.
Take care,
George
George the reason I got rid of the digg plug in on the iframe is purely how it looked. I definitely use it on my post and pages but when I published the page I didn’t like what I saw on facebook.
Steve
Hi Steve,
I didn’t heard about this facebook iframe untill now.Gotta say that I use digg digg for a while and I like as it is.However I liked your video presentation and your explanations:)Well,I learned a new thing thanks to you.
Thanks for sharing.
Have a great day,
Radu
Radu the change I made with the plug in was a to not include it on the iframe I published not taking it off post and pages on my blog. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
Steve
Thank you for your YouTube video on how to add a Facebook like page to my Tweet Deck program.
I am curious as to what software you used to record the video on your PC with audio.
I could use this for my own site.
Many thanks,
Marcel
Hello Marcel somehow oh well that is another post and thank you. The software is camtasia. Thanks for the visit.
