Editor's Notes
- #3: If you don’t have a Facebook profile account you can go to www.facebook.com.
- #6: Businesses are only allowed to open pages NOT profile. A business which opens a profile page is in direct violation of TOS. Business pages do not allow the ability to invite friends – in fact business pages cannot maintain a friends list – they can only maintain a fan list. In fact this feature is disabled on business pages.
- #10: Go to Facebook and walk through creating a page, go to the bottom of your profile.
- #12: Go to Facebook and walk through installing the cover photo
- #15: This is where you can see your results and statistics from your page.
