Can I create a Facebook business page without a personal profile?

4 replies
I want to create a Facebook page for my dating advice website. I don't want a personal Facebook profile, just a business page. But whenever I try to create a new profile, it asks me to sign in first, so it would seem I have to create a personal Facebook page first then a business one after that.

This is very annoying, as I have no interest in being on Facebook in a personal sense (it's an invasion of privacy, a timewaster in my view), I just want to use it as a tool to promote my website.

I googled this question and found the following link, so obviously other people are having this same problem too:

What's the solution to this?

    Previously, there was an option to sign up as a Page, but recently it seems to have been removed. I'm not sure whether this is in line with Facebook's policies, but if you're concerned about privacy, I think you should try creating a pseudo profile and then creating a page from there.

    Yes you can by using gray accounts on Facebook.

    Man, you cannot create business page directly without any personal profile. Business page is linked to a personal account profile and its impossible to build business page without using a personal account.
