On facebook, how do you make a personal URL link for your facebook account?
-ie, How do you make a facebook url link like this.. www.facebook.com/MYNAME.com (MYNAME being anything you wish) instead of http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=5433452162 (^^ made up examples) For example like this one Barack Obama | Facebook How do you personlise your facebook url from the number of your profile to a url name? |

Go to settings / privacy settings.
and you'll see "Create a public search listing for me and submit it for search engine indexing (see preview)" Click on the preview and you'll get the URL. |

That only allows a minimal version of your profile to be searchable by non-members. Your only option is to use the "personal" URL in the form of facebook.com/people/Fred-Garvin/34985756.
I think Obama must have paid for that URL or they simply offered it to him. I don't see any option for mere mortals to get a simple facebook URL like that. John McCain's and Sarah Palin's names also end up at their campaign page. No results for georgebush, billgates, or richardbranson. |
