How to Merge A Page On Facebook
1. Change the Profile Picture & Header Image
The first thing to do is to make sure that each of your Facebook service pages has the exact same account photo and header photo. Ultimately, you will certainly be erasing one of them, so it is necessary to make sure that when Facebook get the merge request that the pages are similar in regards to what they are about.
Open both of your pages as well as review the pictures.
Download the account picture as well as header photo from page An and submit them right into page B.
2. Change the About Us Area
Now that the photos are in area, you have to change the "About Us" area to ensure that the details is exactly the very same on both pages. This is a case of simply copying as well as pasting the information from one page to the next. Make sure that you include all info and also fill in all fields that are occupied. Don't change the Name or User Name yet (red boxes). That's completed after the remainder of the details is updated.

Copy the name from the page you intend to keep exactly then add a "2" after it. e.g. mergepage.com & mergepage.com 2.
Click "Continue" and then on the adhering to display confirm the request by clicking "request Change". Facebook state that this could use up to 3 days, yet I've discovered that it's generally finished within a couple of hrs.
Keep in mind: When the Change Name request has been authorized, you'll now need to wait 7 days to submit a Merge Facebook page request. If you try to submit it before then, Facebook will certainly reject it.

Keep in mind: You will shed all blog posts, comments and also interaction from the page you are merging. However, you will certainly maintain the web content on the original page you are maintaining.
