Facebook Business Pages Demystified for Business Owners

Facebook Business Pages Demystified for Business Owners

Facebook is so popular that business owners can simply no longer consider it a site only appropriate for socializing and game playing. In fact, in September 2010, Facebook surpassed Google in regards to the amount of time users spent on their site. Facebook states that users spend over 700 billion minutes per month on Facebook!

With 500 million active users, Facebook is the new behemoth on the Web. With its popularity across diverse age groups, integrated email application, and new Bing search integration, a Facebook user may simply no longer need to visit Google for Web searches or log off to use an email application. They may be able to experience the Web fully all from inside Facebook. With more than 50% of the active users logging into Facebook every day, according to Facebook, Facebook is now so important to your potential customers' lives that it make sense for you as a business owner to have a presence where your prospects are hanging out on a daily basis.

Let's clear up a few things that have confused business owners about Facebook. First, a Business Page is not to be confused with a personal profile. They are two separate entities and offer different options and ways to interact with friends and colleagues.

Are Business Pages also called Fan Pages?

Many of you that have been using Facebook for a while will remember that Facebook used to call Business Pages - Fan Pages. Additionally, it used to be that someone "fanned you". Now they "like you". Don't get confused in thinking that a Fan Page is a different product than a Business Page they are one in the same.

All Facebook Business Pages start with the set up of a personal Facebook profile. That's right, a personal profile! You can't just jump to Business Page set up. The email address and name you use for your personal profile must be one tied to a person and not a catchall email like info@mydomain.com. Remember, that if you have an employee set up the personal profile portion for your Business Page, that you don't want them to tie the new account to an email that you will not have access to if they leave the company. If they do so and leave your employ, you could lose access to your Facebook Business Page, all of your accumulated fans, and information without recourse.

For set up I typically recommend that one of business owners create a new email address specifically for Facebook set up. Once you have set up the personal Facebook profile, you are ready to get started. But, don't take time to add information like education other details in this special account unless you plan on using it for your own personal use. You are just setting up this account to have a platform to launch and access your new Facebook Business Page.

"Troll Patrol" how to tighten things up just a little bit more. Zap it up one
notch. Had a great question the other day "Is they're away on Facebook to like
something without all your friends seeing that you liked it?" Can it be turned off?  The answer:
absofreakinlutely! Alright, follow along and here's how we do it. When you're in
your Facebook, click on your profile page right up here next to your picture.

When
you click on it, it will bring you to the main profile. You hover over "More" right
here and then you scroll down to "Likes" click on "Likes" it's gonna show you
everything you've liked. Remember this because we're going to use this in
another tutorial about those spammy sites that you didn't know you liked. Anyway, that's a different story.

Now you
click on "Manage" and you click on "Edit Privacy". Right there it is OK? So remember you went to edit privacy
and now it gives you a whole list I'm going to scroll down here so you can see
it all. All the way down to others. Whatever is
important to you if you don't care about who sees your movies you can leave it
public.

If you just want your friends to see
what movies you like making friends you don't want anybody to see it except
yourself then you can make it "Only Me." This way you know what you like and
you've given credit to other websites you'd say "Why would you want to keep it
only me?" Hey! When you like websites, you know like Super Easy Tech Tips ahh,
people like that you like it but you don't have to show that you liked it so

books, etc. It's that simple ok now that you're done
or when you are done click close and before you're done doing that don't
forget to click the thumbs up down at the bottom of the screen down there to
kind of like this video and by all means if you haven't done so yet Subscribe..

The number of domestic Facekook users is not much, want to access Facebook words must use over the wall and a few small means. But americans for the attention of Facebook, has been all didn't stop. Bill Gates once said "in the virtual world, nobody knows you're a dog". In the era of Facebook, this words should be replaced with "in the world of Facebook, everyone knows you are a dog." what This is Facebook's skill, it persuaded the people around the world in the network world confirmed his identity.

The latest research report Compete. Gmail in the United States to the top of the number for 25.1 million, independent visit 15% market share.
