Looking for Facebook content ideas? We have put together 8 ideas for your Facebook Post!
These include Facebook photo contest examples AND Facebook giveaway ideas.
1. Like to Win
If your business is looking to run a quick Facebook contest to reward fans, the “Like to Win” contest is definitely one of the easiest contests for fans to participate.
As the name suggest, fans only need to Like a certain post to enter the contest and stand a chance of winning. Photos, status posts, links and videos can all be used to run this contest.
Since it is so easy, contests like these generally drive tons of participation.
2. Comment to Win
To take it up a notch, you can also create a simple "Comment to Win" contest.
There are a couple variations here:
Fans must simply “leave a comment to win"
Fans must answer a question, like: “What do you like most about our products? comment to win a free ____”
3. Like and Comment to Win
Since you're giving away free gifts, why not make the best of it?
To make your page look even more popular, you can organize a "Like and Comment to Win" contest.
Basically, fans can both like and comment on the post to double their chances of winning.
4. Caption Contest
I’m a huge fan of caption contests!
I love seeing how other people get creative with their captions. Caption contests are popular and tend to bring out the fun and creative side of people.
You can either:
pick the winners yourself
say that comments with the most likes win
5. Fill-in-the-Blank Contest
This contest is super simple! You just write an incomplete sentence and ask your fans to complete it.
You can also use photos to attract attention and caption your photo with the incomplete sentence.
Don’t forget to pick a theme that fits with your brand!
6. Photo Contest
Photo contest are also a big hit -- and super fun to participate in.
There are two ways to organize a photo contest:
Ask fans to submit a photo to you directly via Facebook message & you pick the winner based on your theme
Ask fans to post a photo on your page wall & either (a) you pick the winner or (b) winners are picked by most likes from the community.
Do take note that photo contests usually result in slightly fewer entries -- as the barrier of entry is higher compared to the other contests above.
7. Q&A Contest
Another awesome and easy contest is the Q&A contest.
This can be done in numerous ways -- for example, asking fans a simple question and getting them to submit the right answer. You then pick the winner or winners at random.
Another way is to ask a question and give fans multiple choices (A, B, C, etc).
8. Crowdsource Contest
Perhaps the most useful and satisfying news feed contest is the Crowdsourcing Contest.
This is a great way to get fans to participate while also giving you some great ideas to help with a problem.
This contest gets fans to play a role in helping you make your final decision.
It could be as simple as:
Pick a new logo for your business
Decided a new name for a book, menu, etc.
Help decide a book cover
