To those that do have a Facebook page
I have a question please, I currently have a personal facebook page. If I want a business facebook page do I convert the existing one or create a new one? I don't want to fall foul of any Facebook's laws.
Would appreciate a honest answer.

Hi Trevor,

No you simply create a facebook business page via your personal facebook page.
If you go to the "pages" menu item on the left hand side you will be given the option to create a page

Thank you Casandra, Will visitors to the business page be able to see my errant & nerdy cousins, nephews & nieces replies & posts (They sometimes post funny stuff, like everyone, I suppose!)
Does the same principle apply to other social sites like Twitter, Linkedin etc - you use your existing personal pages as a business page?
Regards
T

With Twitter you can setup a business account without having a personal account.
LinkedIn needs a personal account so that you can setup a group for your business.
