How to create Facebook URL for business fan page

Tags: , , , , , —

Initially, Facebook only allowed you to create a single personal URL for your username.  Now, if your Facebook fan page for your business is established and has a growing fan base then you can easily create a personal (business) vanity URL for your business Facebook page.  You need to be logged into your Facebook account.

Here is how:

Step 1: Go to http://www.facebook.com/username/

Step 2: Click [Set a username] for your pages

Step 3: Pull down and select the page that you administer

Step 4: Enter a custom, personal URL for that page and click [Check availability]

Step 5: Accept the vanity URL for your business Facebook page and start promoting it

WASHINGTON, DC – Forty-five minutes ago, Facebook began allowing those underprivileged people like me to grab their personal URL or vanity URL on Facebook.

Some kid already grabbed www.Facebook.com/BlakeNewman so I had to be a bit creative and settled for Facebook.com/Blake.Newman.Washington.DC.

Here’s how you do it:
