How can I create a custom URL for my Facebook Page?

You can create a custom url for your own page or for any fan page that you manage. If you haven't already set your personal username already - now is a good time.   A custom url makes it easy for others to find you.  You can print it on your business card or list it in other social networking sites.  Once you set it - it cant be changed - so choose wisely.   I always recommend to use your name if its available.   If you have a common name you will want to capture the name before the other "John Smith" does.  I think of it as part of my brand.  You can do the same for your business fan page too - as long as it has 25 "followers".

The process is simple as long as you know where its done.   Just click on this link below to go the setup page.   Any name you select must be unique across all facebook user - so you will have to check its availability.  If you are managing several fan pages - you will see a link that lets you set them up.
