Farmville Guide

If you're going to be the master of your Facebook games, you should really be reading this "Farmville" guide. "Farmville" is one of the biggest things to hit the social networking scene in a long time, and anyone who wants to have the best field amongst their friends really needs a good "Farmville" guide. The following "Farmville" guide will guide you through the best ways to economize on your digital plot of land and make the most of your time on Facebook.

In order to make the most of this "Farmville" guide, you're going to need:

• A computer with an Internet connecion
• A "Farmville" account linked to your Facebook account
• Lots of free time

1. Spreading the love. One of the best ways to make your farm a successful one is by spreading out amongst your friends. Advertise your "Farmville" farm like crazy on your friends' walls, and try to get as many neighbors as possible. This will increase the amount of visitors on your farm and net you a nice chunk of land to boot. Moreover, you'll have more people to exchange and share gifts with, giving you a hefty profit.
2. Economize on your crops. If you want to make the most money possible, consider how much money your crops are going to give you per hour. For example, an acre of wheat might net you 65 cents every three days, but this is nothing compared to the 5.5 cents per hour garnered by raspberries. Consider the costs of plants versus how much they'll give you per acre and maximize on the ones that give you the biggest profit when compared to relative costs. If it works in real-world economics, then it'll certainly work for "Farmville!"
3. Don't expand just for the sake of doing so. "Farmville" echoes the real world by giving you the chance to get a bigger farm once you have enough coins. However, "Farmville" pros and real farmers alike know that there's no point in buying more land if you're not going to use it. In other words, it's better to have a smaller farm filled with cash crops than it is to have a large farm filled with only a few plants. The minute you have enough money to buy more land and fill it with lucrative crops immediately, do so.
4. Use your land wisely. As it goes, you can't devote every piece of your "Farmville" space to just cash crops. It is in these spaces that you put your trees and livestock in order to garner more net returns. By economizing your space and only using what you have to for trees and animals, you're ensuring that you're not consuming more resources than you're putting out.
5. Eschew aesthetics. This might be a bit harder to take for some people, but you don't necessarily need to have the prettiest farm in the land to have the best one. You should be focusing on building up your farm into a financial giant before worrying about how nice it looks from a screenshot. Forego decorations until you actually have money to burn, otherwise you might end up with the prettiest useless piece of digital real estate ever.
