So you’ve found a Facebook page that shares a similar goal as your page and you want to support it. Maybe a friend has a page that you would like to support with your page. Well I’m going to tell you how to do that.
I’ll start with the process to do that before I go into why it is a good idea to like someone else’s page.
You start by going to the page you would like to ‘like.’ (Mine is a great place to start if you need some practice.)

Then you click on the gear icon on the right side of the page as shown in the picture below.
After clicking the gear, you scroll down to the ‘Like As Your Page’ option.
A box will pull up with a drop-down box and you click the arrow on the right.
After selecting the page you want to ‘like’ the page with, click save and you’re done.
Why would you want to like someone else’s Facebook page? To me it is good business practice to show support for my clients and friends by linking my page to theirs. The person you are supporting is also much more likely to support you in return. I also provide ‘likes’ to pages that have provided a good service to my business. This helps clients by leading them to services that have worked for you as well.
By ‘liking’ someone’s page, it gives them added traffic from users who enjoy your work and trust your opinion. Building a network is important in business and there are few easier ways than with a simple click of a mouse button.
Another good example of this outside of the business world applies to musicians and other artists. If your band plays with another band that has a style that doesn’t conflict with yours, it helps the other band and yours to link to their page with a ‘like.’ Your fan base can support other artists and hopefully they will help you spread your name to their fan base. You will also be helping your fans find more music they may like by ‘liking’ and supporting similar bands since most people have a preferred taste in music.
It pays to be cautious though. You only want to ‘like’ pages that won’t reflect poorly on your page. You don’t want to ‘like’ a page that might post something that you don’t agree with. For instance, a company that helps American workers find jobs wouldn't want to like the page of a company that posts about how to outsource business, even if they have provided them with good service.
In our age of technology, the internet, and social media, it is as easy as ever to network and give support to services you trust. Paying it forward can only help you in the long run, so go on over and give someone you trust a ‘like!’
