38 massive list for promoting your business with Facebook Page

Facebook Business Page Promotion List

Over 1.7 billion people use Facebook. And over 22 million Bangladeshi active Facebook users. Yeah, let that sink in.

For social media marketers, more users mean more customers. But with more users comes more competition.

In Bangladesh, social media marketing is as trending as all over the world. So, it is very important for Bangladeshi marketers to ensure their Facebook business page is helpful, easy to find, provides value, and represents their business in the best way possible. And if you intend to optimize or organize your facebook business page, you are at the right place.

Let’s get into it.

1. Claim your Facebook vanity URL

Once your Page has 25 Likes, you can claim your vanity URL, meaning you can direct fans to a URL like “facebook.com/YourBusinessName”. This helps visitors to find your page and makes it easier for you to promote your page on other marketing materials.

See this example from Dheo Naturals.
