Facebook for Business: Get a Vanity User Name for your Facebook Page or Personal Profile

I’ve noticed that a lot of Facebook users don’t seem to know that they can personalize facebook by getting a “facebook vanity URL.” It is free and easy to do.

Go to www.facebook.com/username    and follow the instructions.

You can name your personal profile as well as any special pages you have set up to promote your business, books, events, etc.

For example, I have:

www.facebook.com/GinaCarr
www.facebook.com/GinaCarrFanPage

The best names are simple and short.  It is best not to use periods or hyphens since you will be giving them out to people verbally and you want to make it easy to remember.

Be sure to put this in your email signature and on all of your print advertisements.

I invite you to connect with me on my Facebook page where I frequently share tips about marketing, building business, and growing a strong tribe.
Good luck!
