FACEBOOK ~ CALL-TO-ACTION BUTTON 

Facebook recently rolled out a new feature for pages: a call-to-action button. This handy button is perfect to use on an author page, to encourage fans to watch your book trailer, buy your book, visit your website, or sign up for your e-newsletter.

In this blog post, Laura Christianson walks you step-by-step through adding a call-to-action button to your Facebook page.
