How To Register Your Free Facebook URL

Up until 2009 a personal Facebook url could only be a series of numbers and letters you could never remember and couldn't be changed. However now Facebook has decided to let user's choose their own username.



Facebook has become the largest and most addictive website on the web. Facebook has become the essential marketing, networking and communication tool in today's society. Having a Facebook username makes it much easier for your friends and associates to find you or your business. Facebook's username is not always the name that appears on your profile home, it is often a variation.



You can get your facebook name using the following quick guide. You can also use these steps to claim a name for your fanpage (business).



First



Go to facebook & login



Second



Visit facebook.com/username. You will see a screen where you can create your username.



*IMPORTANT* You must setup your profile name (personal) before you can claim a name for your fanpage. You must be the admin of a fanpage in order to claim its name and the fanpage needs to have more than 25 fans.



Third - personal



Facebook will suggest a few user names, most will be variations of your real name. You can choose one of those or create your own. Every persons username must be unique. Many common usernames have been chosen by other users so you might have to get creative when choosing your usename. However, choose wisely as once you choose your name you cannot change it. Facebook like you to use your real name as often as possible however if security worries you, you might pick something random. When choosing a username you might need to consider one of the following variations: firstName_lastName or firstInitial.lastName or firstName.lastname or firstname.nickname etc etc You can make up any username if nothing suitable is available, but it is probably best to have some part of your name somewhere.



Forth - business username



After you have chosen a personal name you will see a drop down menu for any fanpages you are an admin of. You do the same thing - pick a unique username and it cannot be changed. I repeat: it cannot be changed. Take time and pick your name with care!



Fith Finishing up



When you have picked chosen a username, click the Confirm button. You now have a unique and easy to remember Facebook username. People may now find you very easily by typing your address in their browser: facebook.com/your_username.



The important thing to remember is that your username cannot be changed.



Put your name on business cards, stationary your website etc for extra free exposure.and offline. Add it to your email , put it on your resum or add it to an online directory}
