Creating A Network Of Fake Plenty Of Fish Profiles
The web marketer will create a fake profile belonging to a fictitious guy or girl. They will typically find the photos from real facebook profiles. The key is to use pictures of very good looking people while keeping it believable - that means they won't use Victoria Secret model photos. They will also fill out the profile information in a believable way. The occupation is usually listed as either self-employed and or web developer and this is where the website URL being promoted is added.

Example: "I am self-employed and work many hours. My latest project is yoururl (dot) com."

Their master plan is to make several of these fake profiles. In order for this to work they must also log into all of the accounts once a day to keep the photos near the top of the search results.
