Facebook will let you know if your chosen name is available if the green checkmark appears. After confirming your choice, click Create Username. Then, fill in as much information about yourself as possible in the About section. Fill out all fields, except the Cover Photo. You can customize your page later. Once you&#8217;ve completed the registration process, you&#8217;ll want to customize it to reflect your interests and personality.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_add_friends_on_Facebook\"><\/span>How to add friends on Facebook<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Adding friends to your Facebook profile is one of the first steps in using the social networking site. To do this, you must be logged in to your Facebook account. Next, locate the &#8220;Add Friends&#8221; icon on your profile page. This icon is a silhouette of two people. Click it to send a friend request. The person will receive a message asking to add you as a friend. You can also find your friends&#8217; profiles by searching for them on Facebook.<\/p>\n<p>You can also click the &#8220;Add Friends&#8221; link and select a list of people to add to your Facebook account. The name of the list appears in blue. Click the name to add that friend to your list. You can also click the &#8220;Start Typing a Name&#8221; link and type each name one at a time. This way, you can add multiple friends to one list. You can even add a friend from more than one list.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_make_your_profile_fully_private\"><\/span>How to make your profile fully private<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re concerned that the information posted on your Facebook profile might be public, there are ways to keep it private. Facebook defaults to making all information public, but it is possible to change this setting so that no one can view it. Facebook has four different levels of privacy. You can make your profile fully private by choosing &#8220;Only Me.&#8221; If you don&#8217;t want anyone to see your personal information, deactivate your Facebook account and delete it. This is a drastic measure, but it&#8217;s still an option.<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve made the change, you can easily reactivate your privacy. Click the arrow in the upper-right corner of the screen to open the Settings &amp; Privacy menu. From here, you can select &#8220;Privacy&#8221; and choose which search engines you want to be visible on. Likewise, you can turn off the link that allows people to see your profile if they search for you.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_customize_your_Facebook_page\"><\/span>How to customize your Facebook page<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Whether you&#8217;re just getting started with your Facebook business page or want to enhance your presence on the social network, there are a number of options available to you. First, customize your Page&#8217;s URL. This way, customers and prospects will be able to easily identify your business when they see your Page&#8217;s URL. Plus, it makes it easy to share your page and will give it a professional appearance. Here are a few tips for making your page more appealing to customers:<\/p>\n<p>When you&#8217;re trying to decide on a new look for your Facebook page, you may find it difficult to choose which tabs you want to display. In this case, you can use a template. You can choose a design that matches the rest of your page&#8217;s design. For instance, you can choose a tab with a square design, or a rectangular one with rounded edges. In addition, you can choose a custom username for your page. A custom name will also help users find you easily in Facebook searches.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_to_add_a_cover_photo\"><\/span>How to add a cover photo<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When creating a cover photo for your Facebook account, remember that the placement is important. While the default location for your cover photo is the left, it&#8217;s best to place it to the right. It&#8217;s also helpful to center things in the photo such as your website&#8217;s URL or your CTA button. The best way to center your CTA button is to align it with the right-hand side of your cover photo.<\/p>\n<p>To update your cover photo on your Facebook account, you can click on the profile icon and select &#8220;Edit profile picture.&#8221; Once you&#8217;ve clicked on the new photo, a menu will pop up and allow you to edit it. Select a profile picture that&#8217;s already uploaded on Facebook or upload a photo from your computer. If you&#8217;re using a phone, you can choose from one of the stock images available in the &#8220;Select artwork&#8221; option. Alternatively, you can also piece together multiple photos to create a collage.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nkKnIRQO2KI\" width=\"477\" height=\"267\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Do I Create a Facebook Account?
