Facebook, with over 500 million members and still growing, is an excellent platform for your social media marketing efforts!

Here are some pointers on using a Facebook Fan Page to your advantage:
Google now has a social search, and of course a real-time search, so by using best practices SEO on your Facebook Fan Page, you will help to leverage the power of social media by being indexed by the search engines. Be sure to have a link to your website on your Facebook Fan Page, and update it often so that you provide fresh content for search engines.
Practice a little cross-advertising by having a link to your website on your Facebook Fan Page, and a widget for your Facebook page on your website.
Track the ROI of your Facebook Fan Page by using the free analytical tools provided. Facebooks Page Insight Tools and dashboard make it easy to analyze marketing and communication. You can see data that is related to interactions such as Facebook Wall posts, comments and “Likes”, as well as Fan demographics such as age, gender, locale, and more.
Use your Facebook Fan Page as a learning experience. Whenever someone posts a comment on your wall, asks a question about your product, makes a suggestion, voices a complaint, concern or praise—you have gained very valuable insight into your potential target audience that can help you improve your business!
By using your Facebook Fan Page to engage with the social community, you are strengthening the bonds with those who might someday be your customers. You have a Discussions tab on your Fan Page, which is much easier to maintain than a discussion forum for your business!
Used properly, Facebook and the Facebook Fan Page are powerful tools in your social media marketing efforts for your home dropship business or other ecommerce endeavor.
