Statistics can be monitored in http://www.facebook.com/insights, however the data presented is far from complete. For example, something as simple as monitoring how many people has “shared” or “liked” your website is not easily determined. Fortunately there’s a handy link for checking the number of Facebook “likes” or “shares” of a given Web Page URL also provided by Facebook but not as known:

http://api.facebook.com/restserver.php?method=links.getStats&urls=http://www.eacomm.com

The above query will return an XML document in the following format:

<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”UTF-8″?>

<links_getStats_response xmlns=”http://api.facebook.com/1.0/” xmlns:xsi=”http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance” xsi:schemaLocation=”http://api.facebook.com/1.0/ http://api.facebook.com/1.0/facebook.xsd” list=”true”>

<link_stat>

<url>http://www.eacomm.com</url>

<share_count>3</share_count>

<like_count>3</like_count>

<comment_count>13</comment_count>

<total_count>19</total_count>

<click_count>0</click_count>

<normalized_url>http://www.eacomm.com/</normalized_url>

</link_stat>

</links_getStats_response>

This can then be parsed by a simple application to store the statistics in a database.

For example in PHP you can use the simlexml_load_file to parse this. Below is a very simple code (admittedly not very elegant, but it works) to do this:

$url = “http://www.eacomm.com”;
$xml = simplexml_load_file(”http://api.facebook.com/restserver.php?method=links.getStats&urls=$url”);
$child=$xml->children();
$child2=$child->children();
$shares=$child2->share_count;
$likes=$child2->like_count;
$comments=$child2->comment_count;
$total=$child2->total_count;
$clicks=$child2->click_count;

You can now store the shares, likes, etc. in a database and monitor for yourself how your website is performing in Facebook.

Below is a form to check if your site has been ’shared’ in Facebook:

• PhilippineCompanies.com has moved to our Cloud-based Virtual Private Servers which would allow us to scale more easily as the site continues to grow. The upgrade should significantly increase the website loading time as well.
• The site has been redesigned to what we think is a cleaner and sleeker look.
• A new section that has gone live but still under constant improvement and development is the Stock Market section of the site. This area provides links to stock information and news for Publicly Traded Philippine Companies.
• Visitors can now download the PhilippineCompanies Toolbar to have faster access to the PhilippineCompanies search engine.

Expect several other new features in the next few weeks!
