Is it dangerous to buy fake likes?

[James2Dylan]

I have seen on Fiverr where you can get a bizillian "likes" for $5. It is all pushed through a system anyway. It wont really benefit you because it isn't natural growth. Just get out there and be seen. That is the best way. Just my opinion though.

Don't worry but you should stop buying likes, and if you gets real likes request some of your friends minimum 10 to 20 friends and make a team and then they share your link and you share their links and manage some time and see your pure likes.

Every SEO/SMO strategy based on bare "buying" is doomed. The worst-case scenario shows the site/community banned (forgive me observing the situation in general, without a particular connection to the subject of the discussion), the usual - it does not bring ya money, the best - it provokes real people to come and join. But the latter depends mostly on the quality of the content, as experience shows.

Google algorithm see when someone jump from 200 to 2000 likes and then stop.
I think on fiver are selling fake likes, it hard to bring 2000 real and natural likes in one day.

totally agree. It helped my site to start gaining more facebook followers.

It is dificult to get FB fans if you have only 10 likes. Nobody will follow you.

According to me it will be dangerous and i suggest you have to go for real not fake.

This fake likes may spoil your personal identity and will damage your account. Beware of it...

No, Actually it depends, if they are using Black hat SEO techniques then there might be a problem you could be counted in spammer otherwise if they are using white hat SEO techniques then there is no harm.

You are representing something in a better light than it really is and trying to benefit from it. I would steer very clear..

I really like your standpoint on this. I myself think of what is better or worse. Is it better to get 6k likes in the beginning, or to be flagged FOREVER by Google and never get a good SEO. Take the slow and true, so you know if you have a great product.

It might make your fan page appear popular, but if there isn't much engagement on your facebook page then the others who might join will feel some sort of disconnect as well.

And trust me, you would love it when your facebook fan page grows in it's following organically because you'll then know that all of those people are truly your fans.

Yes, I will also not recommended to purchase such likes. Reasons, you need to be natural, so if you combine all the efforts together ( like your seo aspect + other ethical promotion methods ) and with that if you slowly introduce the facebook like then that is much more effective. Else dangerous for long term.

Did you read all the replies in this thread yet?

Fake is always dangerous to you and also to everybody who is using fake things on internet marketting. even it is also helpful but only 10% fake thing is ok but 90% should be genuine.

If fake is always dangerous, how can 10% not be dangerous

Anyway you slice it, its still going to be wrong, if not dangerous. It's like buying a friend in the real world. That has a negative impact on not only your site, but your reputation as a business person on the net, and I would seriously steer clear of it.

[drunkglitch]

I don't know whether it is dangerous but it is definitely a waste of time. none of the likes will be genuine or read anything you post, they might not even be real people just some guy with hundreds of accounts.

[developer_ost]

To my mind, fake likes/fake comments won't make any good. It might seriously harm your reputation and be dangerous for your site. We shouldn't forget about ethics, right? There are lots of effective marketing tools to attract people to your FB page and build a reliable community.

[pyaar]

No, As you know.Fake likes will not create but backlinks will create a problem for your site.When 10,000 in day.Its totally spamming.And the website rank goes down.
