With this platform, you can promote your brand, establish an online store, do project sales, and more. It is one of the most popular social media platforms and virtually every adult has space here.
If you want to connect with your friends, you can open an account. In this article, I will teach you how to open a Facebook account for free. You can create a personal and business account here.
Your personal Facebook profile
This is the most common type of Facebook account and perfect for your free time and leisure. From here, you can share your interests, some personal data, and keep in touch with friends and family, even those that you thought you wouldn’t hear from again. This process is easy and fast.
How to create a personal Facebook account
- Firstly, go to www.facebook.com.
- Secondly, click on Create account and supply your name.
- Thirdly, enter your email or phone number.
- Fourthly, supply your password.
- Also, enter your date of birth and gender.
- If you entered your email correctly, you will get an email from Facebook requesting to confirm your account through a link.
- Lastly, confirm it, which is all.
How to configure your personal Facebook profile or account
After creating your account, add a touch of color to your profile. This involves:
- Adding a profile picture. This will help your friends to recognize you easily.
- Search for friends. Work colleagues, ex-classmates, etc. All of them have a place.
- Make your profile private. Decide who will have access to your profile and who will not. Facebook will control and have access to all your data as soon as you create an account. But, you can put some limitations.
- Go to your Privacy Setting and Tools. This will help you set limitations.
- Proceed to find friends through email. Find out who has a profile on Facebook by entering their email’s addresses.
From now on, you can connect with friends and acquaintances, get notifications from groups and events you like and be up-to-date.
Create your business account or Facebook page
Individuals can also create business accounts for their business, personal brand, and store or even for a public figure. To do this, choose Business or Brand. This will help a lot to reach customers.
Also, you can create your own Facebook community and share your interests. It’s perfect if your objective is to generate content about your brand or service. You can only create a business account when you already have a personal account. The two processes are simple and the same. There is only one difference which is the name you give the business account.
After creating the account: Choose your profile and cover photo, add information about your page and products if it’s an online store, etc.
