I have actually been asked several times very recently regarding transforming page url, to make sure that means it's time for a post!
How To Change The Url Of A Facebook Page
Actions To Take Before You Change Your Username
Your username produces the actual special link for your Facebook web page. Before you change this, make a checklist of all the places online that link to your web 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 transform your username, the old link will be damaged. As far as I recognize, there is no way to set up a temporary redirect from your old username to your brand-new one so you wish to ensure that you are prepared to update these points as quickly as you alter your username.
How you can Change Your Username
When your web page is developed, a username is instantly created that resembles www.facebook.com/Your-Page-Name-Here-2398613149875983. Not extremely attractive, not extremely simple to bear in mind, not extremely simple to fit on a business card!
Previously, admins could just change a page username 2 times then it was permanent - Facebook appears to have actually lifted that limitation!
From your page, go to About (on the left sidebar).
Click Edit beside Username.
Type your brand-new username. You have 50 characters.
- Pointer: although usernames are not situation delicate, take into consideration utilizing the very first letter of each word for much better readability
If your username is readily available, check the spelling
Click Create Username
Reference the list you made previously as well as upgrade any web links that are pointing to your old address
CAN'T CHANGE YOUR USERNAME?
There may be something in your name that violates the custom-made username standards. From the Facebook assistance facility:
-You can only have one username for your Page or profile and you can't declare a username someone else is already making use of.
-Usernames could only include alphanumeric characters (A-Z, 0-9) or a duration (".").
-Durations (".") as well as capitalization don't count as a part of a username. For instance, johnsmith55, John.Smith55 and also john.smith.55 are all considered the very same username.
-Usernames must be at least 5 characters long and also cannot consist of common terms or expansions (ex:. com,. web).
-You should be an admin to develop or alter the username for a Page.
-Your username need to abide by the Facebook Declaration of Rights as well as Responsibilities.
Furthermore, you could not be able to change your username up until your web page has 25 sort - although this isn't regular for every single user.
