I rar...Personal pages with company names are weird. I rarely become 'friends' with a company. They need to start fan pages. <br /><br />Fan pages are much better for orgs on Facebook because they are accessible to non-Facebook users and pages interact with user much more professionally. <br /><br />The one thing I don't like about fan pages is that you have to have at least 1000 fans to get a vanity URL, i.e. facebook.com/yourcompany. But if you are dying to have a cool URL and start a profile first you can, but when you decide to make the switch to a fan page later you have all the time to make up and build your fan page. Better just to start with the fan page.<br /><br />You brought up a good point about not being able to change the name of a fan page. For some companies this is a pain because just like a domain someone might have claimed your name and have control over it whether it's an employees or a customer. You should search for Pinnacle Security and see all the litter they have uploaded to Facebook. <br /><br />On that note... if you ever want to see an online presence nightmare look up the summer sales companies! Luckily APX Alarm just hired Seth Jenks to help them out, but it is going to be a long time before those orgs get a good presence online.Jakehttp://www.jakeneeley.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8216068.post-24470983196509381562009-10-13T11:46:47.020-07:002009-10-13T11:46:47.020-07:00I think I followed, now what was the question you ...I think I followed, now what was the question you asked again? The one thing that kept popping in my head was "myspace was set up for FANS"...so I think Facebook wasn't so much set up for "fans"...an than Twitter, I don't go there because the only people I truely want to keep up with are friends and family. I do enjoy this one organization that has a FB page, since they tell us when they are running a discount. Did this just confuse the issue more? You are a Professor of what now? I guess instead of asking here, I could ask on yourFB page or just look up your info. I find it hard to remember to stay focused when I go to check out what a friend's "info" is...once I see a picture I'm lost in laalaa land.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02665926751256398737noreply@blogger.com
