How to Verify Your Facebook Page and How It Can Help Businesses

Listen Later

I received an excellent question from Sheila in the Social Media Optimizer Course:

"Is there any value in verifying our Facebook page?"

Thank you, Sheila, this is a fantastic question.

Although it's not a necessary step on your Facebook page, it does have some benefits.

If you are a public figure, ie. speaker, artist, musician, actor, getting verified would be more important so that fans know it is an official Facebook page versus a fan page or unofficial page.

For a business page, the pro's to getting your page verified is:

  • your page will rank higher in the search results (Facebook tells you this when you go to verify your page)
  • it adds a level of legitimacy and lets people know that the page is recognized as the official brand page.
  • if a duplicate page is created, users will know your page is the official page.
