I have actually been asked several times very lately concerning transforming page link, to make sure that indicates it's time for a blog post!
Change Facebook Business Page Url
Actions To Take Before You Change Your Username
Your username develops the actual unique web link for your Facebook web page. Before you change this, make a list of every one of the areas online that connect to your page, or products that have your existing URL provided on them. For example:
-your website
-blog posts
-email signature
-graphics
-other social media networks
-email templates
-business cards
-brochures, posters, marketing materials
-document templates
As soon as you transform your username, the old web link will be damaged. Regarding I know, there is no other way to set up a short-term redirect from your old username to your brand-new one so you intend to see to it that you are prepared to upgrade these things when you transform your username.
The best ways to Change Your Username
When your web page is produced, a username is instantly created that looks like www.facebook.com/Your-Page-Name-Here-2398613149875983. Not really appealing, not extremely simple to remember, not very easy to fit on a business card!
Formerly, admins could only change a page username 2 times then it was long-term - Facebook seems to have actually raised that restriction!
From your page, most likely to About (on the left sidebar).
Click Edit next to Username.
Type your brand-new username. You have 50 characters.
- Idea: although usernames are not instance delicate, think about exploiting the first letter of each word for much better readability
If your username is available, double check the spelling
Click Create Username
Referral the checklist you made previously and update any type of links that are indicating your old address
CAN'T TRANSFORM YOUR USERNAME?
There may be something in your name that breaches the custom username standards. From the Facebook aid facility:
-You could just have one username for your Page or profile and you can't claim a username someone else is currently utilizing.
-Usernames can just contain alphanumeric characters (A-Z, 0-9) or a period (".").
-Durations (".") and also capitalization do not count as a part of a username. For instance, johnsmith55, John.Smith55 and john.smith.55 are all considered the exact same username.
-Usernames need to go to the very least 5 characters long as well as can't consist of generic terms or expansions (ex lover:. com,. net).
-You must be an admin to create or change the username for a Page.
-Your username should comply with the Facebook Declaration of Rights and also Responsibilities.
Additionally, you could not have the ability to change your username until your page has 25 likes - although this isn't really consistent for every individual.
