    Would you do this?

    I have heard of some Facebook users who will create a profile based on a ficticious character and then add friends who show interest in a specific niche or product type. For instance, a person might create a girl gamer Facebook profile and then add other gamers interested in playing Xbox games. This is only an example and you might think of others. Anyone added to the friends list would be a gamer and not a real friend. And, the person with the fake profile could then post links to their own gaming related site/blog/forum and ask friends on the friend list to like their favorite Facebook page. Have you used this idea?

    You might try this for any niche not just gaming. Maybe this could be adapted for a dating niche. I have not used this suggestion for myself.

    This seems rather shady, though I'm sure that would not stop someone from doing it if there were good money to be earned.

    That is not really worth it considering facebooks recent changes. Your account could easily be flagged as fake, and get deleted. SO its not really worth. What you can do is create a facebook page for that fictional character, and get likes. (Be that a tv show character, movie or game) and then you can use it to promote stuff that is similar to that niche.

    The fan page idea should work just so long as you don't claim to actually be that person or a representative of that TV show/movie. There are many fan pages that pay homage to a favorite person in this way.

    These pages are likely to be reported by fans of the real page for that celebrity or fictional character.

    Or, maybe you will be allowed to have the page but it won't be considered official.
