You need to have a personal profile in order to create a business page. Business pages are managed by profiles. For example, my personal profile as myself is a manager of Moz's page, and when I post on Moz's page or answer comments on Moz's page, it defaults to me responding as Moz.

Hi Erica,
Thanks a lot for great answer and great tool, just last query as you said facebook only wants businesses to have business pages that means i can directly create business page and no need to create profile?
I mean to create any business page, we have to create account with profile? ??Confused??? Can u please guide me?
Thanks in advance!

You only want one page for your business, not four for each service. Businesses that have multiple pages are ones with multiple locations. Facebook only wants businesses to have business pages, and they will shut down businesses that create user profiles instead.
As far as tools that you can analyze what your competitors are doing on Facebook, I recommend Rival IQ. I use this for my work at Moz, and it's fabulous.

Thanks Monica,
First of all i don't want to hack anyone else page. I am asking for my business page. Like i have abc.com website of my company and i am providing 4 services i.e. seo, web development, web design, 3d design so i want to know, should i create profile page of facebook on my name? and for all four service i should create account with my company name?
I was asking in my above statement that if i want to know any business have more than one page so it is possible to check? ...I don't want to hack but want to analysis...that's it
Thanks!

Do you have a personal Facebook page? You can look up any businesses as long as you are logged in. Just do a search for their name.
You can't hack someone else's page, but you can look at it from a fan's perspective. You will see their likes, reviews, posts and photos.
I recommend creating only one FB page for your business. There is a description that can be extremely lengthy and you can describe all of your services. You don't want to have duplicate pages for the same business, it reflects negatively on your credibility. The name of your page should be the name of your company.

Is a Facebook lookalike audience a good idea when audience requires a necessary characteristic
We are running a social media campaign for a point of sales system for restaurants and retail stores. We have had quite a bit of traffic to our website from Adwords and SEO. We have thought of the idea of creating a new look-alike audience based off the people who have come to our website already. However, we only really want to only build a Facebook audience consisting of business owners, managers or decision makers of restaurants and retail stores that would be interested in a point of sales system at some point. We know that most of the people who have come to our website (from SEO and Adwords) have been interested, in some degree, in our point of sales system. My reservation though is that if we create a look-alike audience, Facebook will not be able to replicate the type of audience that really fits this profile - that it will create an audience possibly of similar personalties, interests etc to that of those that have visited our site, but not one that consists predominately or entirely of owners, managers or decision makers of restaurants and retail stores. This is the necessary characteristic we are wanting for our audience members. Is it fair to assume that in this situation Facebook won't be effective in its creation of a look-alike audience to fulfil what we are really needing as stated? Or am I underestimating Facebook's abilities? You thoughts here would be greatly appreciated.

Opinions on offering an incentive/discount for Facebook sharing
I often see sites offering a discount for liking their Facebook page, but very rarely do I see sites offering a discount for sharing a link or their page. What are your opinions of this, is it something that Facebook could frown upon? Are people likely to just share, get the discount and then remove the post etc?

Facebook Likes, What are your thoughts on people begging for them?
Hi There, I'm seeing more and more businesses (especially small businesses) setting up Facebook pages and then almost begging people to like them with lines such as "lets see if we can get to 200 likes", etc etc. What are your thoughts on this does it really help and do you think Google will find a way to not count them as spammy?
