I’m reading a lot of negative comments regarding the recent news that Facebook will be introducing usernames both from Facebook users and other professionals. Maybe I’m missing th epoint but I think individuals have to think beyond themselves and start looking at Facebook business platform side. This news is the most exciting news for companies and brands. Imagine MYspace but so much better.
- Facebook usernames makes it a breeze for people to remember your URL
- Facebook usernames allow you to create a very customizable landing page
- Facebook allows you more leverage on exposure
- Facebook allows you to customize your experience of your page
- It’s easy to learn how to customize information
If you own a company or want to promote your services then I strongly suggest you get into this and start setting up your profile.
Hey, I agree with you that it can be positive for businesses however normal users should think twice about what their username should be, for privacy reasons. Actually, I just wrote a blog post over at http://www.seomalta.eu inspired by your post. Check it out if you’re interested
Cheers and keep it up!
