The current count is 25 to change your username.
– The term used to be called a Vanity URL in Facebook but has been simplified to Username– It used to be harder to find to but has been added in your BASIC SETTINGS now
– You should claim your business name (username) ASAP, before someone else does – as names go fast and become unavailable
– Example: The process to get your Fan page web address looking more like this:
http://www.facebook.com/SimpleInbound
– You HAVE to have a personal profile BEFORE claiming or creating a FAN PAGE
(yes this means 2 Facebook pages – YOUR PROFILE and YOUR FAN PAGE)
(Though you only need to sign up for one account)
– If you try and trick the system by using your profile as a FAN PAGE – you’ll eventually get your account canceled (by Facebook)
(Meaning – Don’t name your personal profile something like SIMPLE INBOUND instead of your real name)
(It may take a year to happen but it will get canceled if you try to trick Facebook)
