First of all what you want to do is if you haven't created a FaceBook account, I strongly suggest doing that and all you've got to do is just go to FaceBook and just simply join to to have account. Of course, the reason why I'm suggesting to get a FaceBook Fanpage today is really because after say you reach about 5,000 friends you'll be limited in what you can apply to be able to promote to or stay in touch with all your friends and with the FaceBook Fanpage, you will get unrestricted fans or unlimited people following you and also communicating with you so you can think of the capability of having a page. Let's move through firstly and I'll teach you specifically what to do detail by detail on how to come up with page. First thing I've done is I've logged into my account and as you can see this is the actual profile page. What you want to do is at the end here that says "Ads and Pages" just click on that. Then you go in to be able to build a page and to do that, what you see here is up here it says "Create Page, New Page or Delete Page". What we want to do is firstly create a page.

Then you go in to be able to build a page and to do that, what you see here is up here it says "Create Page, New Page or Delete Page". What we want to do is firstly create a page.

To come up with a page, all you have to do is select either one of three options. You've got here Local company, Brand or product or Artist or band. According to what you're doing, if you're an enterprise then I recommend making a local company and if you decide on on that, there's a number of options that you'll choose from and according to what business or the specific area or category you are simply select that. In my circumstance or in my situation here, I've created personal branding for my own name so I selected Artist or band. And you can select any of these depending on what you will be, I'm just basically whether public figure or just a writer. I've chosen previously as being a writer. And then just give yourself a Page name. Simply just type in the name of the page. With my case, it's my full name and then simply just click on "I'm the official representative" now once you've created that, all you have to do is click on this button that says "Create official page". Alright once that's done, it'll take you straight back into your page which I'll provide you with right so now.

Alright once you've done that, what I suggest as well too is to try put bit additional information. So you probably want to put your info page here and give exact details, backlinks to your blog, backlinks to your other websites that you have etc. Now the next thing I suggest doing as well is to put several photos up. People want to know who you are, find out a little bit more about yourself and I've put some photos of who I've met with in the past like Darren Rowse, Gary V, etc and Yaro Starak. Next thing I recommend doing is to put in a few different applications. For example links to YouTube, Twitter and also Posterous blog posts and so forth. There's some really neat piece of software or tool that I use to set this up and you don't have to do it by setting it up yourself. All you've got to do is simply visit this website called Involver which I'll open up right of course for you. It's called Involver.com and you can observe it right here. Exactly what it does is it enables you to add maximum of two applications into your page if you sign up for free account. If you decide that you want to increase the amount of applications, you can do that and just pay a monthly fee to be able to access that. But all I would recommend doing is adding the most two important things that you need which is YouTube and Twitter.

To sign up a free account, then click "Start here" and it's a fairly easy three-step process: read about the apps, select the apps and then choose which feature is acceptable for you. And as I've mentioned, I recommend signing up again Twitter account and also the YouTube account and as long as you have those two already setup like the YouTube account and Twitter account, all you need to do is add in the details here and Involver will do the other parts for you. So I'll let you do that anytime you want and it's very easy to do.

Next, one last thing I wish to accomplish is exactly mention additional information about creating yourself a specific link so that anybody who really wants to access your Fanpage will be able to find it. What happens is that originally, the link that you get on your FaceBook Fanpage is something like FaceBook.com/pages/numbers-yourname which is extremely hard to remember. What I would recommend you do is to build a selected link, customized domain name for your Fanpage or you'll have a basically directory that's been redirected here. For me, I've got a certain link that goes directly to the FaceBook Fanpage which is Tyroneshum.com/FaceBook. And anyone can remember that if I just send it out via email or send it out to anyone in my contacts, and I'll get them visit my Fanpage, all they should do is type in Tyroneshum.com/FaceBook and you'll be able to access my FaceBook Fanpage anytime.
