Hi Alyson,
Thank you for your tips.
I tried to change my username : it is only possible to change the personal username not the one of the business page. Is that right?
The step n°7 is so helpful : why didn’t I think of this before? Thanks you’re here… But : I don’t know if I’m dumb but it’s not possible to “recommand the business page ” to a non friend. And it’s not possible to send a “become a fan to someone” who is not your friend?
The answer of Sari is also interesting because I am also questioning myself about the utility of Facebook. But I will continue because I don’t think I use all the possibilities.
Valérie.

These are great suggestions and I’ve done a few – however now the new look of Facebook pages has changed the game regarding keeping your Fan Page link up front (nevermind that your biz info is also now hidden). I’ve always liked to keep a link to my website as up front as possible so people don’t have to hunt too hard for it. Do you have a suggestion on how to recapture the functionality? Obviously it’s not in FBs best interests to have people surfing away from their site. Right now that little “info” button is all we’ve got though, right? On our fan page and on our personal profiles?

Daniel: Invites to friend someone? Or invites to others’ events?

THANK YOU so much! I just did what you suggested as far as creating a user name / short & usable weblink for my business page on fb. YAY! Thank you.
Here’s what I struggle with:
Getting my friends to like my business page. Some do. Some don’t. And I find that when I place a teaser on my personal page with a link to the business page … people tend to respond on my personal page instead of the business page … even when I ask otherwise. I get more responses on my personal page than I do on my business page. What gives? And why do some friends like my business but do not like my business page?
Confused.
