There are millions of people who haven&#8217;t even heard of it. If you&#8217;re wondering how to set up a Facebook account, read on for some helpful advice. Once you&#8217;ve signed up, you can personalize your profile with the help of the available tools. Here&#8217;s how to add a cover photo, update your biographical information, and edit your privacy settings.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Personalize_a_Facebook_profile\"><\/span>Personalize a Facebook profile<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The first step in advertising on Facebook and marketing your brand is creating an account. You will be asked to enter your name, email address, cell phone number, password, date of birth, and gender. You may be asked to add more characters to your password to make it more secure, but if this is the case, try combining upper and lower case letters. Be sure to be at least fourteen years old.<\/p>\n<p>You can control who can view your profile, which includes controlling your birthday, what other people can see about you, and whether your profile is searchable by search engines. You can also control who can view your profile and even block people who do not know you. Facebook has several security measures to protect your information and keep it private. You can choose who can contact you by phone or email and restrict who can search your profile.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Update_your_biographical_information\"><\/span>Update your biographical information<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When creating your Facebook profile, make sure that your biographical information is accurate and up-to-date. It is important to remember that your biographical information is visible to the public for at least 24 hours. You should include relevant information like your first and last name, the brand you&#8217;re associated with, and your position. You can also include a music video. You should also remember to upload the best photos and videos you&#8217;ve taken. You can organise them into albums if you want.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Add_a_cover_photo\"><\/span>Add a cover photo<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>How to add a cover photo to FB? Choosing a good cover photo is an important part of your profile. The dimensions of the cover photo should be at least 400 pixels by 150 pixels and should be less than 100 kilobytes in size. Generally, you cannot change the cover photo, but you can make it private if you want. Make sure that you save the picture as a JPG or PNG. You can also add a logo if it is available.<\/p>\n<p>If you haven&#8217;t changed your cover photo on Facebook, you can always edit it from your profile page. To change it, simply hover over the photo you want to change. A menu will pop up with various options for editing your cover photo. Select from your profile photo or a photo from your computer. You can also select artwork from the stock photo library and create a collage from different photos.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Edit_your_privacy_settings\"><\/span>Edit your privacy settings<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to restrict who can view your posts and information on Facebook, you should edit your privacy settings when creating a Facebook account. There are a number of ways to do this. Here are the most important options. By selecting your audience, you can determine who will see the information you post. If you are unsure about whom to block or allow to view your posts, you can also opt to make certain posts private.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to limit who can see your posts, go to the &#8216;Your Activity&#8217; section and select the option to Limit Past Posts. This will change your privacy setting to Friends Only. Click the Edit button next to &#8220;Friends Only&#8221; and choose the privacy option you want. If you&#8217;re a business owner, click the &#8216;Sell to Company&#8217; option. Otherwise, click &#8220;Other&#8217; and follow the instructions.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Create_a_business_page\"><\/span>Create a business page<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To set up a Facebook Business Page, follow these steps. First, decide on a name for the page. It should be the name of your business. If it&#8217;s not, you can create one for it. After that, choose a category. Select two words, maximum, for your page category. Add a short description about what your business does. After that, click &#8220;move forward&#8221; to accept the Facebook&#8217;s policies.<\/p>\n<p>When you&#8217;re done setting up the page, make sure it looks credible. A cover photo is a must-have. You should also use a short URL, which you can find on the left sidebar underneath the page name. If you&#8217;re just starting out, ask friends and family to test the page for you. It&#8217;s always best to get as many people as possible testing out a new business. Getting more exposure will help you succeed in your business.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Create a Facebook Account If you&#8217;ve been wondering how to create a Facebook account, you&#8217;re not alone.
