I’m a social media guy, and even I am impressed at the way Facebook can bring in visitors to a website. Our newest rollout, Great Catholic Homilies, was launched in April, and we’ve climbed up to around 500 visits each month so far. At the last check, 13% of the visits were coming from our Facebook page called Great Catholic Homilies. And we have fewer than 10 friends there.

One thing I do is post on my Facebook page about once a week, when I upload the latest homily on Great Catholic Homilies. I make an interesting comment about the homily and of course put the link there. I have also set up a widget for the Facebook page which is inserted into a page on Great Catholic Homilies called — well, what else — Blog. Each posting on Facebook automatically goes into the Blog page. It’s bringing ‘em in. Nifty, eh?
