In the previous installment in this series, Picking a Facebook Page Type for Organisation, I pointed out how Facebook Fan pages (now called "Authorities" pages by Facebook) are the finest option for different Facebook page types for a small or home based business or a freelancer. Now we'll take a look at how you tackle Facebook create a page.
There are a couple of different ways to access the Facebook page development site:
Luckily, after you've developed one Facebook Fan page, extra Facebook Fan pages will be a lot easier to produce as you'll have an Advertisements and Pages link under your profile photo in the left column of your very own wall.
The process sounds more complex than it is, but Facebook makes it more complicated than it has to be.
Once you've made your selection, you'll be supplied with a drop-down list to make your next choice. For example, when you select Local business, you'll need to pick the type of service. When you choose a Brand name, product or company, you'll have to select from that list. If you're not honestly sure, clicking the button beside any of these three options will permit you to access the list and see which best fits your scenario.
As soon as you have completed the necessary actions, you'll have the ability to provide extra info about the business, including a picture, and start producing a character for your page. You'll also wish to consist of connecting to your website and blog, your LinkedIn profile and your Twitter account to further help get the word out about your organization and get your consumers and prospects to connect with you.
Don't stress, however. When you get those 25 followers (fans), you can change the URL to something that's quickly recognizable and remembered. Your old default URL that Facebook produced for your fan page will automatically be redirected to your custom URL, so all your links will continue to work.
