Is it wrong to have a facebook profile vanity URL not your personal name?

5 replies
I have 2 facebook profiles and 2 vanity url's... one is my personal name and one is name for a geographical name of my area. I am using the geographical one to add fanpages and marketing everything I need to around this geographical area...

Is this wrong? Can I not have a vanity URL that is not my own personal name? The URL is one that I don't want to lose if I am doing something wrong.

Any advise is appreciated...

    How do you have 2 facebook profiles when it is against the FB TOS to have more than one account?

    Maybe that will help you decide...

      How do you develop a fanpage outside of the admin account unless you have 2 profile accounts? I've been workin on like to unlock fbml, which as we know will no longer be around but to properly test you have to view the admin changes in another account in order to view the changes as a regular user would ....no?

        By making a test account.
        For testing facebook allows to create a test account.

        To create a test account make sure you are logged in into an account
        that you want to convert into a test account and then visit this URL:
        facebook.com/developers/become_test_account.php

        WARNING!
        The above URL is not clickable on purpose!
        ***triple check*** that you are really logged in with the account
        that you want to convert to a test account!
        Because the process is irreversible!!!


        Then visit the above URL and confirm that you really want to convert your account.
