Although many companies are promoting their social media links on their websites and email campaigns, a surprising amount are still neglecting to display their social media links on their business cards. When I asked a new client of mine (a company seeking to build their social media presence) why their current business cards don’t include their social media links, the answer was that their Facebook Fan Page URL was very long and would ruin the clean design of the cards. This inspired me to write this tutorial on how to easily customize your Facebook Fan Page URL.
Furthermore, a simple URL increases the chance that someone will (correctly) type in the link to the Facebook Fan Page listed on your business card, as opposed to a complicated, 20 character URL.
Here are the 3 easy steps to customize your Facebook Fan Page URL:
- While logged into your Facebook account, go to http://facebook.com/username
- On the Drop Down menu choose the page URL you want to change. *Note: You can also change your main FB profile page URL in this step, as well.
- Choose your desired username, which will be included in your Facebook Fan Page URL, and click “Check Availability”
Don’t forget to include your Social Media links on all of your marketing collateral, as well as your business cards. For the steps on How to Customize your LinkedIn URL click HERE.
