I've been asked several times really recently about transforming page url, to ensure that means it's time for a blog post!
How To Change The Url Of Your Facebook Page
Steps To Take Prior To You Change Your Username
Your username produces the actual one-of-a-kind link for your Facebook web page. Prior to you transform this, make a list of every one of the places online that link to your page, or materials that have your existing LINK provided on them. As an example:
-your website
-blog posts
-email signature
-graphics
-other social media networks
-email templates
-business cards
-brochures, posters, marketing materials
-document templates
When you change your username, the old web link will certainly be damaged. As for I recognize, there is no way to establish a short-term redirect from your old username to your new one so you wish to see to it that you are prepared to update these things as soon as you alter your username.
How To Change Your Username
When your web page is created, a username is instantly generated that resembles www.facebook.com/Your-Page-Name-Here-2398613149875983. Not very attractive, not really simple to keep in mind, not very simple to fit on a business card!
Formerly, admins can only transform a web page username 2 times and then it was long-term - Facebook seems to have actually raised that constraint!
From your page, most likely to About (on the left sidebar).
Click Edit next to Username.
Kind your brand-new username. You have 50 characters.
- Idea: although usernames are not situation delicate, think about taking advantage of the first letter of each word for much better readability
If your username is readily available, double check the punctuation
Click Create Username
Referral the list you made formerly and also update any kind of links that are pointing to your old address
CAN'T CHANGE YOUR USERNAME?
There may be something in your name that breaks the personalized username standards. From the Facebook aid center:
-You can just have one username for your Web page or account and you can't declare a username someone else is currently utilizing.
-Usernames could only consist of alphanumeric characters (A-Z, 0-9) or a duration (".").
-Periods (".") and capitalization don't count as a part of a username. For instance, johnsmith55, John.Smith55 and also john.smith.55 are all thought about the very same username.
-Usernames should go to the very least 5 personalities long as well as cannot include generic terms or expansions (ex-spouse:. com,. net).
-You have to be an admin to create or change the username for a Web page.
-Your username need to follow the Facebook Declaration of Civil Liberties and Duties.
Additionally, you might not have the ability to alter your username till your web page has 25 sort - although this isn't really regular for each individual.
