Facebook Business Pages Cannot Be Opened If You Allready Have an account
-
Buon pormeriggio from 24 degrees C slightly cloudy Wetherby UK
I want to open a facebook business page for a client but i understand it has to be attached to my personal facebook account. This is a pain, one day I'll leave the digital game which then presents a problem for the next administrator, I mean i can hardly pass arounf my facebook user name & pasword.
Then to add to the conundrum i hear the fix is to regioster a business account sound good so far but then you cant do this if you have a personal account... err WTF!
So my question is what do socail media agencies do when they open facebook business pages, surely they are not ties to personal accounts?
Any insights welcome,
Grazie,
David -
Exactly my idea! and you have everything in one spot. I hope it will work out for you!
Cheers!

Hi David,
For me it worked with Business account.
I have created an email for this purpose, went to an incognito page (Chrome) and made a page for my client. Then opened up the business account with the created email address.
I prefer to have a Business account for every Page that we administrate.
I hope it works for you also.
Greetings,
Istvan

I set up a second 'personal' facebook account using a made up name, I registered the account to a new hotmail type email and shared the login details with everyone in the business.
I don't use the made up personal facebook I just use the business page.
It's worked for me so far

Facebook Share from personal wall to fan page
Is it possible to share a post from someone's personal FB wall to a company fan page if they have the permissions set to allow this? Â I often get a message that a share was denied and I'm not sure if shares from personal to business fan pages are always denied or if this is controlled by the person's privacy settings.

Google+ pages in search results
I have a simple question - I've read a lot about how google+ pages are ranking well in google searches, and that it's a good idea to incorporate google+ into your strategy. So I was on a call this morning, talking to a client about this. Â The client brought up the fact that in all his google searches, he's NEVER seen a google plus page in the search results. Â I realized that I never have either. Â After some searches, I still don't see any google plus pages, at least not on page 1 or 2. Â Am I missing something? Â Needless to say, the client was not convinced about the value of having a G+ page, and I came away not sure what I was missing. So how do people measure the impact of using google+ on their main website? -Jim

Short Facebook page name/vanity URL
Does anyone know how to go about getting a page name on Facebook of less than 5 characters?  I saw Moz was able to claim facebook.com/moz (BTW, congrats on the redesign!), and many other brands also have claimed page names under 5 characters.  Has anyone else had success claiming a short page name?  Do you have to know the right person at Facebook, or are there other requirements?  We have around 35K likes on our page, and our site gets a pretty good amount of traffic. My boss doesn't like any of my ideas that are 5+ characters... she really wants the short URL. If anyone has any insights on what I need to do (or who I need to talk to at Facebook), I'd really appreciate it!

Facebook likes v fans
Hello, When I look at my site in opensiteexplorer it says my site has 79 Facebook "likes". But actually, it has 4,070. In another part of the PRO dashboard it correctly identifies 4,070 but calls them "fans". I thought if someone hit the "like" button they became "fans". So why is SEOmoz reporting the vastly different figures?

SEO Moz Page authority and Domain authority do not correllate wih SERPS
I have checked the competitive landscape and the rankings with the keyword difficulty tool. E.g. for "Schuhe" - google.de - the rankings do not correlate with MOZ Page authority and Domain authority. What are the reasons for that and what are the important factors currently not reflected in SEO Moz Page and Domain authority?

Does it make sense to have one facebook/twitter account for multiple websites?
If you have several different websites with related themes, does it make sense to just have a facebook or twitter page for the company to make managing the account more manageable?
