Million Dollar Facebook Network

The challenge starts today. I have created a new Facebook profile, totally fictive, utterly attractive.

I have attempted to make my fictive man attractive to total strangers (of both sexes!) and with some creative profile tweaks - my goal is to add at least 50 new friends to this profile every day for the next 7 days.

You see most people who have built a 'real' FB profile make it a personal Facebook profile and this is not ideal for marketing. You don't really want to or shouldn't be marketing and pimpin' stuff to your immediate friends, family and old time friends. It just doesn't add up.

Thats where the 'mystery man' comes in. You see if I can get tonnes of friends into a network quickly the possibilities are extremely numerous and potentially lucrative. Not only blog marketing and promotion, but other avenues such as direct affiliate marketing, list building, FB application sales / promotion and even selling the complete Facebook profile on a site such as DigitalPoint.Com or SitePoint.Com.Facebook accounts filled with large amounts of active friends are attractive to others also.

Care is needed when doing this as Facebook just like MySpace and other social networks do have checks in place to see people that are adding friends too fast. I have verified my Facebook account to a pre-paid cell phone which makes friend adding much quicker (as it removes the verify tags on every friend request) and once joining a few large Facebook Groups in my targetted niches - finding and adding friends is a very fast and simple process.

Two important points to remember - make sure your profile 'looks and feels' real. Add a few photos, write some meaningful interests and text and finally when you introduce yourself to 'unknown' friends - make the intro comment creative. Something like 'we know a few of the same people' or I am new to Facebook and trying to meet new friends...

I have created a new account, totally populated its profile, added photos and I have requested add's from something like 75 people all in under 60 minutes... Not bad eh? More updates soon, on the amount of friend requests accepted and rejected.
