Tag your Facebook Fan Page, Group, or Events by using @Mentions
Tag your Facebook Fan Page, Group, or Events by using @Mentions
You can now tag your fave Pages, Friends, Events, and Groups in your Status Update using the "@" symbol.
It’s called @mentions and takes advantage of the fact that most of us are using Twitter and are used to typing @something now.
Useful to marketers especially who want to promote their Pages, Events, and Groups. I thought it only worked for people, so finding out today that it also works for the others is happy news to me! :) Making your pages, events and groups much more viral.. when people post their own updates and use the @mentions to reference the group/page/event, then all of their friends now have a link to it.
I also didn’t realize how many Facebook pages that Facebook teams actually update with news, so I’ve promptly now become a fan of each of them..

Extremely happy with the finished project. This is by far one of most pleasing and dedicated people I've ever worked with. I highly recommend any services they offer. I'm confident that they will take care of you as they have for myself and many others.
This is really good stuff. Unless you're an SEO expert this is something you really need to invest in. What are you waiting for? Go ahead and order it NOW! 
This is awesome…but how do the pages know when they’ve been tagged? It doesn’t appear on the page feed anywhere. Or is that some setting that needs to be changed…
I dunno.. but when I do it, it turns up in both places.. so maybe it’s a privacy setting that you have on your page?

How do you tag a fanpage onto a friends profile?!?!
1.) Go to your fan page
2.) Type something, then @yourfriendsname
3.) Click share
Now on their profile is a link to your fan page, and on your fan page, is a link to your friend.
Can you tag a photo on your page as the page?
I can tag people with @mentions, but I am unable to do it with other fan pages, though it looks like other fan pages are doing it to my fan pages. I have favorited the other fan pages, but it still does not work. I also tried in ie and firefox. Any suggestions?
@Heather – creating a new blog post to show you how to do it now
