Correct That Messy Veterinary Facebook Page Link!

Updated: Aug 22

Veterinary Facebook Page

Veterinary Facebook Page


Initially, when you create your veterinary Facebook page, it will have a messy link with a long string of numbers, making it impossible to brand and share your veterinary Facebook page link with your clients. This is an example of a default link facebook.com/pages/ABC-Veterinary-Clinic/277109989460


Fortunately, Facebook has an option where you can shorten your Facebook link to match your brand and to be easily shared. So for example your veterinary Facebook page link would go from facebook.com/pages/ABC-Veterinary-Clinic/277109989460 to facebook.com/ABCveterinaryclinic.


These are the steps you need to follow:


1. Ensure that your page has over 25 fans as this is the minimum number that qualifies.


2. Log into your Facebook page, and click on the following link https://www.facebook.com/username


3. Facebook will force you to log in personally, however, you will see a drop-down menu where you can select your Facebook Page


4. Choose a name that matches your brand (and choose carefully as you cannot change it afterward)


5. Now with your shortened link in hand, add your Veterinary Facebook Page link it to all of your client handouts and marketing material – increasing your social network and furthering your practice brand.
