Facebook Adds 36 Companies to Its Preferred Developer Consultants List
Facebook has expanded its list of “preferred” developers who help brands, celebrities and a wide variety of organizations build applications, Facebook Connect integrations, or custom features for Facebook Pages. This means more visibility for the 36 newly added developer-consultants, so maybe some new clients for them. There are now 50 companies listed, more than half are operating internationally, and in a total of 15 countries.
Facebook created the Preferred Developer Consultant Program last December, and is continuing to accept applications from prospective companies, more here. Our Facebook Marketing Bible also contains a list of service providers that we recommend.

Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t like how Facebook provides no guidance or advice for agencies looking to get on the list. Their system offers no advice for developers who were turned down as to why ther weren’t approved.
To me, it really seems like the approval process is tied directly to the amount of money an agency can generate for Facebook.. :X
