You need to have a personal profile in order to create a business page. Business pages are managed by profiles. For example, my personal profile as myself is a manager of Moz's page, and when I post on Moz's page or answer comments on Moz's page, it defaults to me responding as Moz.

Hi Erica,
Thanks a lot for great answer and great tool, just last query as you said facebook only wants businesses to have business pages that means i can directly create business page and no need to create profile?
I mean to create any business page, we have to create account with profile? ??Confused??? Can u please guide me?
Thanks in advance!

You only want one page for your business, not four for each service. Businesses that have multiple pages are ones with multiple locations. Facebook only wants businesses to have business pages, and they will shut down businesses that create user profiles instead.
As far as tools that you can analyze what your competitors are doing on Facebook, I recommend Rival IQ. I use this for my work at Moz, and it's fabulous.

Thanks Monica,
First of all i don't want to hack anyone else page. I am asking for my business page. Like i have abc.com website of my company and i am providing 4 services i.e. seo, web development, web design, 3d design so i want to know, should i create profile page of facebook on my name? and for all four service i should create account with my company name?
I was asking in my above statement that if i want to know any business have more than one page so it is possible to check? ...I don't want to hack but want to analysis...that's it
Thanks!

Do you have a personal Facebook page? You can look up any businesses as long as you are logged in. Just do a search for their name.
You can't hack someone else's page, but you can look at it from a fan's perspective. You will see their likes, reviews, posts and photos.
I recommend creating only one FB page for your business. There is a description that can be extremely lengthy and you can describe all of your services. You don't want to have duplicate pages for the same business, it reflects negatively on your credibility. The name of your page should be the name of your company.

Trying to find a WP application (that does not require a FB application) that synchronizes website blog posts with a company facebook page
I'm not a developer and it's been about 5 years since I helped a client synchronize their wordpress blog posts with their FB page. I remember it being much simpler to do this in the past. However recently I'm noticing that all of the WP auto post applications require a Facebook application to get the synchronization to function properly.

Is there any WP plugin available that does not require this? Something that just requires FB keys?0 -
Wow, I can get a lot of Facebook likes quickly!
I did some testing with Facebook ads and resulting Facebook likes on target pages. And something is wrong! Just after creating the ad, before the ad was approved, I could get many likes on the target page without even seeing any traffic on server logs or google analytics. I documented my tests here. I repeated the tests 6 times, every time I could get tens of likes on the target page within seconds and without any approval of the ad. These pages have little traffic and there's no way these likes could have been natural! Everyone I reported was able to reproduce it, try yourself. A little update. I found others reporting un-expected Likes pouring... But at least they were "running" the ad, so externals to Facebook could have seen it and decided to Like it to later offer "liking" service as reported from this fellow. But in my case the ad was not approved... So... Who can see it beside me and Facebook?

Facebook Likes gone through the roof
Howdy, We have seen our Facebook Likes increase by a staggering 20k in a week. At the beginning of last week we were sat at around 21k and it has been steadily increasing, but just 7 days later we now have 42k - Has their been some sort of algorithm change for this to happen, or should I be suspicious that something is not quite right? Thanks, James

Is there Anyway of finding out a companies facebook shares?
Is there anyway of finding out a companies facebook shares. When I checked out a competitor of one of my clients who seems to be very well placed without many links I discovered that they have over 298 facebook shares on Open Site Explorer but when I look at their site or search on facebook I cannot find any business facebook page for this company so I am really intrigued to find out where they are getting these shares from? Does anyone have any ideas?

Can You Aggregate Likes from Pages on Your Site to Your Homepage?
I think the Facebook widget is great for social proof if you have a lot of people who like you. (the widget that shows faces of people who like you) Let's say that you create a resource that gets 100 likes. Do those "Likes" only count at the page level or can they be aggregated into a total "Likes" count that you can show on your home page and on the Facebook widget? Or are "Likes" in the Facebook widget only for people who like your Facebook page? (not those who "Like" your site).

Facebook Open Graph Tags: Thoughts on OG:Type
I am wondering how Facebook uses the data enclosed in OG Type tags? Facebook wants you to stick to the types listed though it's fairly limited in scope. Our pages are in the accommodation space but they are not HOTELS. In this instance would you list as COMPANY or go with HOTELS. Curious to hear your thoughts - thanks!

Facebook Shares and the rel="canonical" tag
We use canonical tags for multipart videos, using part 1 of the series as their canonical tag. The logic behind this is that if you have eight parts, it's better for part 1 to get all the link juice for the entire series, so that when someone searches for the main keyword, part 1 is the highest ranked part to appear in search results, and the link juice from every part is aggregated into that one page. The problem is the Facebook made changes to their URL sharing practices to reflect the canonical tag. So as long as the tag is used Facebook ignores the image and description from say part 2, and uses the description from part 1. Can this be waived by using Facebook Open Graph Protocol? Thanks!!

Are Facebook page updates indexed in Google search?
I seem to remember an update where Google said it was going to include Facebook page updates into Google search, but perhaps that was a deal that fell through? If updates ARE appearing in Gooogle search, how do I troubleshoot a Facebook page where they are not?
