If you maintain a Facebook page, there are diverseways to display your brand name, and unfortunately, it's possible in today's global marketplace that someone else occupiesyour company name. Understanding how Facebook operates and how to display your company name so people can locate you can assistyou inavoiding any potential problems this might cause for your company. Here are some Facebook business page tips that can help.
User Name Vs. Page Name
Facebook allows companies to have duplicating names on their platform. What it does not allow, though, is two companies to haveidentical user names for their pages. That affects the web address for those pages, and because you can't haveinnumerable companies housed under asolitary page on the platform, you can't have twoidentical user names.
Change Page Name on Facebook
If a business already possesses your Facebook user name, don't worry. It's not the terminus ad quem of your social media marketing ventures. You can simply select "change page name on Facebook" as an option. While you won't acquire the user name you want, you will receive a page name with which yourparticularaudiencewill identify.
Unlike personal profiles, companies establishbusinesspages. A company could establisha page for the organization or even for a particular branch of theorganization. People engagingwith your company can like both your posts and your page. It doesn't add to their friend groups, just to the pages they've liked.
As you establish up your profile, you'll be requested to come up with a user name and page name. The user name only appears in the URL when people navigate to the page, so if someone has already taken Joe's Limos, you can simply choose Joe's Limousine Service as your user name without jeopardizing the brand name with whichpeople actually identify. In the event the company that you're competing with for the optimal user name ever withdrawsfrom Facebook, you could be next insuccession for that user name.
