-Combining Facebook pages.
Keep in mind: For this article, we're assuming that the pages are dissimilar in style or industry (which is more difficult). However, the steps still apply if the pages are comparable. The approach listed below can be utilized for greater than 2 pages, however, you can just merge Facebook page A with Facebook page B. You can not merge several Facebook pages at the same time. Each merge request needs to be completed in full and also sent independently.
Facebook Merge Pages
1. Change the Profile Picture & Header Image
The first thing to do is to make sure that each of your Facebook company pages has the very same account picture and header image. Eventually, you will certainly be deleting among them, so it's important to ensure that when Facebook obtain 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 profile picture and also header picture from page An and submit them right into page B.
2. Change the About Us Section
Now that the pictures are in place, you should modify the "About Us" area to make sure that the information is specifically the same on both pages. This is a situation of simply replicating and pasting the information from one page to the following. Make sure that you include all info as well as fill in all areas that are occupied. Do not change the Name or User Name yet (red boxes). That's completed after the remainder of the information is updated.
3. Change the Name of the page You Want To merge
Since you have all the info and also photos specifically the same as the page you intend to keep, it's time to undergo a Change Name request with Facebook. Click on "Edit" next to "Name" in the About Us section. Copy the name from the page you intend to keep specifically then include a "2" after it. e.g. mergepage.com & mergepage.com 2.
Click "Continue" then on the complying with display confirm the request by clicking on "request Change". Facebook state that this can use up to 3 days, however I've discovered that it's normally finished within a few hours.
Note: As Soon As the Change Call request has actually been approved, you'll now have to wait 7 days to submit a Merge Facebook page request. If you aim to submit it before then, Facebook will decline it.
4. Submit a Merge Facebook page request
This is a very straightforward procedure to adhere to as soon as the 7 days have actually elapsed from the name Change approval.
- Most likely to Settings on top of your page.
- Click on "General".
- Scroll down to "merge Pages".
- Click "Merge Duplicate page".
- Enter your Facebook password if triggered to do so.
- Select the two Facebook pages to merge.
- Click continue.
- Choose the page that you want to maintain.
- Confirm.
Once the request is sent, it will be evaluated manually by Facebook to make certain that the details on both pages match as described over which there are no discrepancies. If all the information are proper, it should take no longer compared to a couple of hrs for the request to be approved and also the pages to be combined.
Note: You will certainly shed all blog posts, comments as well as engagement from the page you are merging. However, you will maintain the content on the original page you are maintaining.
