New Facebook Page Open

Creating a Facebook fan page for your blog can be anxiety-inducing, especially if you're trying to keep your actual identity separate from your blogging identity. However, it does not need to be complicated-- once you see just how very easy it is, you'll question why you waited so long.

First of all, let me tell you that it's all right to be logged right into your individual Facebook account when you produce your follower web page. When I made my initial one, I was horrified that my surname, personal account, or other details would certainly be linked to it. After setting it up and evaluating it from my kid's account, though, I learned that I was worried for nothing. If you establish it up with a different e-mail address, it will be far more difficult to manage due to all the logging in and out.

Second, while some individuals like to establish a routine Facebook profile with their blog name, it's much better to set up a follower page. That way your followers can "like" your blog site without having to add you as a close friend, and the page functions will be simpler to control.

Okay, with those bits out of the way, right here's what you do:
