Mastering the art of Facebook

Has anyone else been a teensy bit frustrated by facebook lately? It seems like there have been quite a few changes and new things to get used to.
I can handle the changes to my personal page but when they started messing with the Loyal Couponer page that's when I got cranky. Currently, bloggers are being given the option to "pay to post". Basically if we want our posts reaching a higher number of people we have to pay to achieve that. Mmmhmm. Right. If I have extra money hanging around I can tell you right now that it won't go to facebook.
So what are bloggers supposed to do to ensure their readers aren't missing out on deals? And what are followers supposed to do when they can't see their favorite blogs' facebook pages? I'm gonna tell you. Keep in mind that many of you probably already know this. In that case you're about 10 steps ahead of me. I'm a little slow when it comes to facebook. (And I'm willing to admit that the Loyal Couponer page needs some serious TLC)

But here are the basics so bloggers and followers alike are happy:

1. Creating lists: Go to a blog you've liked and hover over the "liked" button. A menu will drop down that looks like this-

2. Choose "new list" and add the blog to the list. Add the other pages you want on the list then choose next. You'll choose a name and then done! This way, each time you sign in to facebook you can choose to view your list and you'll only see the posts from those you've added.

If you're facebook slow like me then I hope you found this helpful! :)
