First, fill out the About section. You can add more categories later. Then, fill out your phone number and address. You can decide whether this information is public. If you&#8217;d like, you can upload a cover video. Finally, you&#8217;ll want to create a Call-to-action button. Follow these steps to get your page noticed by your audience.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"About_section\"><\/span>About section<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The About section of a Facebook business account is an important way to draw people to your page and give them a glimpse of what your business is all about. You can share your business values and mission statement in this section. It should also include contact information, products and services, and a menu. Adding links is also a good idea. The mission statement should be under 225 characters, but you can edit it later if necessary.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have added your logo, you can begin filling out the About section. This section will show a preview of your page on mobile and desktop. Make sure to fill out all of the fields thoroughly to ensure that your page appears as professional as possible. You can also include a link to your website or a blog. Once you&#8217;ve completed the About section, click the Save button to save the changes. If you&#8217;d like to change the name of your Facebook business page, you should choose a new one.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Community_section\"><\/span>Community section<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are a couple of important steps to take when setting up a community section on Facebook for your business. First, you need to create a Cover Picture and other information for your community page. Next, add any links you would like your audience to see and save the changes. After that, you can begin adding content and links to your community page. Don&#8217;t forget to give your community page a name so that users can find it easily.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have a name for your community, you can invite your target audience to join. It&#8217;s crucial to be selective with who you invite, though. People joining your community page will automatically be added to your list, so you may want to consider only inviting your own friends and family. You can also use the community tab to promote your business or product. Make sure to invite your clients to share their experience with others in your community.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Call-to-action_button\"><\/span>Call-to-action button<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In order to create a call-to-action on Facebook, you need to know how to link your business pages to your personal profile. In Facebook, you can do this by selecting a post type, writing the content and choosing a call-to-action button. If you are using a link share, you should make sure that the &#8220;Click to website&#8221; objective is checked. Likewise, you can create a call-to-action button in an organic post.<\/p>\n<p>You can use this button on your Facebook page to direct people to the main page of your business. Once you have the link, you can set the button as a follow or a learn more button. This button will be displayed on any Facebook business page. When you have completed all these steps, click &#8220;Save&#8221; to save your changes. Your Facebook page will look like a professional page &#8211; complete with a professional looking call-to-action button.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Uploading_a_cover_video\"><\/span>Uploading a cover video<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to use Facebook video as a tool to promote your business, here are a few tips for you to consider. For example, the aspect ratio should be 2.7 or greater, and the video should be no longer than 90 seconds. Make sure your video is in 1080p or higher, or even full HD. Your video should also be in mp4 or MOV format. The video should be a minimum of 10 seconds long, and it should highlight key points. The video should also be short and sweet, inviting viewers to visit your website, try out your service, or sign up for a free coupon.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to use video as your Facebook cover, you should first download royalty-free music and video editing software. You can also find a wide range of free stock videos online. These videos are best used as a cover video for your business page. If you aren&#8217;t comfortable shooting your own video, you can use a stock video online. InVideo offers 16:9 video templates for a Facebook cover video.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Create a Facebook Business Account Once you have created your account, you&#8217;ll want to complete certain steps.
