How to Merge Facebook Pages

How To Merge Facebook Pages - I have an additional article on combining and merging Facebook pages here-- with video clips-- but as you understand, Facebook changes things A GREAT DEAL, so as opposed to puzzle you or lose your time with outdated information, I believed I would certainly make a brand-new post about this.

So currently, if you have numerous Facebook pages for your organizations-- you could merge both (or 3 or 4) pages !!

Remember, this is for merging 2 WEB PAGES. If you have a profile/timeline or a team, these guidelines typically aren't for you. There is presently no way to transform a group right into a web page, yet you COULD currently convert your Facebook profile into a web page!

There are TWO methods to combine your web pages. Allow's begin with the very first and most basic one. If this does NOT work for you, just most likely to option 2!

If your web pages meet the appropriate requirements-- they were both developed by you, they have the very same name, as well as at the very least one is a "place" page, then you might have the ability to have Facebook immediately combine your pages for you with one click of a button!




How To Merge Facebook Pages


To see if you can, most likely to your web page (you have to be a page admin to do this) and click "edit web page" in the top right corner.





After that click on "resources" on the left column. If you see "Merge replicate web pages" as an alternative, then you're golden! Just adhere to the directions there to combine your web pages (it will certainly give you a list of pages that are qualified to merge).





If you DON'T have this alternative, or the pages it checklists are not the ones you intend to merge, don't worry. There is an additional means!




Method 2 for Merging Facebook Pages

The first thing you have to provide for option 2 is collect the URLs of your Facebook pages that you wish to combine together. The FULL URL-- that's the component in the address bar, the facebook.com/ part in addition to every little thing that comes after the/.





Open a word document or something and duplicate and paste the LINK of the page you intend to MAINTAIN, initially. Make certain you keep that straight! You're mosting likely to need to inform Facebook "this is the web page I want to keep, and these are the page( s) I want to merge right into that web page." (I'm going to describe this as your "caretaker" web page).

( I suggest duplicating and also pasting by doing this. You could write it down on a piece of paper, however these URLs are sometimes kind of long, as well as you do not want to get one letter wrong as well as mess it up).

Next, copy the URLs of the pages you wish to merge into the major one. Maintain those somewhere, also.



REALLY VITAL !!!
Ensure that you've gotten whatever off of those web pages you intend to keep, such as pictures, video clips, testimonials, posts, etc. The ONLY point that will be saved from these pages will be your followers-- they will certainly merge and incorporate with the followers of your "keeper" page. Everything else will certainly vanish and you can not get it back.


How to do it

Currently you should send a demand to Facebook to merge your pages. You have to do this while you are logged right into the account that is an admin on your "caretaker" page. (NOTE: If you do NOT have an individual Facebook account-- just an organisation account that just handles your pages-- this WILL CERTAINLY NOT WORK. You have to be visited as an actual person on Facebook with a personal account).

They have made this MUCH much easier, as you recognize if you enjoyed my old tutorial on this subject! Just go to this LINK to submit the demand to combine your Facebook web pages. Just select (from the fall food selection) your "keeper" web page, and after that the others you want to merge into it. They call these "inauthentic" web pages, however it does not necessarily imply that. It could mean "added" web pages, or "pages I developed accidentally" or "pages that an old volunteer produced" or whatever benefits you!





Simply fill out your type and struck Submit. it could take a few hours to a number of days to obtain a reaction. (please blog post back below and also tell us the length of time it took you to get a feedback so people will certainly have a concept!).

Remember that if you are merging 3 pages, and each had 500 fans, you won't always get 1500 fans once it's all stated and done, because some people may have been followers of all 3 web pages. However all your followers WILL incorporate to be fans of your one "caretaker" web page.
