I have actually been asked a number of times extremely recently concerning transforming page url, so that indicates it's time for a post!
How To Change Url For Facebook Page
Steps To Take Prior To You Change Your Username
Your username develops the actual special web link for your Facebook page. Before you alter this, make a checklist of all the locations online that connect to your web page, or products that have your existing LINK detailed 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
As soon as you alter your username, the old web link will certainly be broken. Regarding I recognize, there is no other way to establish a short-term redirect from your old username to your new one so you want to make sure that you are prepared to update these things when you alter your username.
Ways to Change Your Username
When your web page is created, a username is automatically generated that resembles www.facebook.com/Your-Page-Name-Here-2398613149875983. Not extremely attractive, not extremely simple to bear in mind, not really simple to fit on a business card!
Formerly, admins could only alter a 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 close to Username.
Kind your brand-new username. You have 50 characters.
- Pointer: even though usernames are not situation delicate, think about utilizing the initial letter of each word for far better readability
If your username is available, check the punctuation
Click Create Username
Reference the list you made formerly and also update any type of web links that are indicating your old address
CAN'T CHANGE YOUR USERNAME?
There could be something in your name that breaches the customized username guidelines. From the Facebook aid facility:
-You can only have one username for your Page or account and you can't assert a username somebody else is already utilizing.
-Usernames can just have alphanumeric characters (A-Z, 0-9) or a period (".").
-Periods (".") as well as capitalization do not count as a part of a username. For instance, johnsmith55, John.Smith55 and john.smith.55 are all considered the exact same username.
-Usernames must be at least 5 characters long and also cannot include common terms or expansions (ex lover:. com,. net).
-You should be an admin to create or change the username for a Page.
-Your username should comply with the Facebook Declaration of Rights and also Obligations.
On top of that, you may not be able to alter your username till your web page has 25 likes - although this isn't regular for every customer.
