Hi everyone,
Katie J just asked us about how to make a ‘vanity url’ in Facebook – (that’s where your page name is short and nice, instead of long and random). We’d never taken the time to figure that out ourselves, so we just figured it out – shared it with Katie, but also thought we’d share it as a post.
Obviously having your brand clearly represented in Facebook is a great idea. So, here is a link on how to do it: http://blog.hubspot.com/blog/tabid/6307/bid/6109/How-to-Create-a-Facebook-Page-Vanity-URL.aspx
So the process is simple, and now our Facebook Fanpage has gone from this:
http://www.facebook.com/home.php?#!/pages/Liberty-Jane-Clothing/124792842949?ref=sgm
To this:
http://www.facebook.com/LibertyJaneClothing
If you’re small business is not in Facebook yet, you should consider it. They now have over 500 million users. The best beginners tutorial we’ve found is on the Chris Farrell membership site. It’s video after video explaining all of the basics, how to set things up right, and how to actively find and engage with customers.
Let us know how we can help.

Thanks for the tip! I was wondering how to do this, but never really delved into it – so thanks for doing the hardwork 🙂
I have a personal facebook page and a page for my business – Patches Dolls. But I could not figure out how to get a shortened address like you did. Any more suggestions?
