There are specific good reasons why a Page is beneficial over just using your Personal Profile for business purposes: Terms of Service: It is against Facebook’s Terms of Service to use a Personal Profile for business purposes!

  • There is no limit to the number of connections you can have for a Page. This makes Pages especially valuable for Facebook users who reach, or are approaching, the 5,000 friend limit.
  • People can just “like” your Page, they don’t need approval. It’s easy for you.
  • The search engines “index” (visit, know that it exists) the business page content so it’s an SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) boost. They don’t index personal profile content.
  • Facebook is currently the second most popular site on the Web.
  • You can build an active community for your clients and prospects.
  • It gives you a way to talk to and get feedback from your target audience, because like a user profile, you can update your community with status updates that will appear in their news feed.
  • You can promote events.
  • You can add unlimited photos and videos to promote your products and services.
  • You can customise the Page using various applications.
  • The direct “vanity” URL can be claimed for the Page once there are 25+ members.
  • You can easily promote it with tools provided by Facebook.
  • The Facebook Pages Insights analytics tool gives you useful information about your community and their interactions.

facebookWord of Warning: We’ve had people say “Why don’t I just do it all on Facebook and not have a website!”

We would never advocate that, putting your online business presence totally under someone else’s terms and condition’s is a dangerous move. Leverage from it, absolutely, but still drive your own website independently; you never know when ‘their’ rules will change.

Keep your independence and strengthen your own website from all of this.
