How to Change Your Facebook Business Page Name (a Facebook Friday Post for those with 100 or fewer fans)

If you've recently created a Facebook business page and/or have fewer than 100 fans, you now have the option to change your facebook business page name!  I've mentioned how important it is to "name with care" when it comes to your facebook business page.  In the past, once you named your facebook business page, you couldn't rename it later.

Here is the page on Facebook (released this week, thanks Ashley for sharing this tip) that goes over this change and a few other important ones for those of us who manage facebook business pages: http://www.facebook.com/note.php?note_id=422741434821&id=10381469571

If you have a facebook business page and need to change the name (AND have fewer than 100 "fans"), here are the instructions:

1. Login to Facebook
2. Click on "account", then "manage pages" on the top right
3. Select your facebook business page
4. Click on "edit page" below your business page profile picture (on the left)
5. Click on "basic information"
6. Update your page name (be sure you type everything exactly as you'd like it!)
7. Click on "Save Changes"
