"Facebook fans" are Facebook users who like a page created on Facebook. To become a fan of a Facebook page, simply click the like button next to the page name.

"Followers" are Facebook users who follow a person, to stay updated on their posts*. To follow a person on Facebook, simply click the "Follow" button next to the name of the person.

"Facebook likes" are of many kinds. You can like a fan page, you can like a status, you can like a post, even a comment! To like a comment, simply click the "Like" button below the comment. Similarly, click the "Like" button associated with a post to like it.

*People can control the privacy of their posts- this means they can control the posts they want to share publicly and the posts they want to share only with their friends. Public posts are viewed by followers.

Hope This Helps!
