1. Complete your page information

Always keep in mind to fill in completely, all the basic details about your business. The audience needs all the relevant information about your business and if you fail to provide it to them, it causes a lack of trust and the audience starts searching for alternatives.

Carefully study and understand which field requires what answers to be filled. For example, the ‘short description’ field needs a one-line answer which acts as your business tagline. So don’t try to fit in your entire story here as there’s a separate column for it.

This helps you in showcasing what your brand stands for and gives your audience a chance to get associated with you even outside of Facebook.

2. Register your vanity URL

Whenever you create a Facebook page, you’re assigned a dynamic URL, which looks similar to this,

See how clumsy it looks!

And how difficult it’ll be for your potential customers to recall this URL.

So, here comes the need of a Vanity URL, which is short, clean and custom made, containing just your business’ name.

It looks like this, www.facebook.com/QuibusTrainings, and helps you in increasing your brand’s awareness, visibility and also provides you SEO benefits due to its high authority.

4. Creative use of graphics

Photos generate more engagement than text posts, says research.
