Your Own Personal Facebook Profile
For me personally I only catch up with old friends on facebook a couples of times a month. But the big picture here is that to own your own private link you would of have to have paid thousands of dollars, to have your personal Facebook profile.
NOT ANYMORE!
Right now if you want to send someone to your profile, you have to figure out a URL that looks something like this:
www.facebook.com/people/Your-Name/585946540
(That’s an inactive URL, BTW, no need to click it.)
But wouldn’t you rather own www.facebook.com/yourname? (or your company name)
Buy having your own company name set up to promote your business.) Can you imagine how you felt if someone else were to own your company name on Facebook?
In the past, it was easy to own your own name on Facebook, all you had to do was to spend a large amount of money with Facebook (think $40,000+ per month) or be a huge celebrity, and it was yours. but not anymore for the little guy.
If you did managed to get your name, then congratulations to you, because you are the only person in the world with your own name for facebook. Or your company name.
If you grabbed your company name, can you imagine how much traffic you will get for nothing just buy having your own personal facebook profile for free.
If someone else has already has your name, get creative – add a period, or a dash, shorten it, lengthen it, or slap a number in there somewhere.
So go ahead and claim your own profile name now, before it’s gone.
