In a previous post I discussed the importance of getting a vanity url for your fan page to make it easier to promote your fan page.
I do recommend you get the vanity url you want so that squatters don’t get it first BUT I don’t recommend you use your vanity url in the promotion of your Facebook fan page.
WHY?
If you are looking to build your own brand, why would you consider promoting Facebook.com in all your promotional links??
Have your webmaster create a personally branded link to Facebook Fan Page.
For example: http://FreeSocialMediaHelp.com/fanpage
(For those of you who are technically inclined to try this out yourself you are simply redirecting http://www.facebook.com/freesocialmediahelp to http://FreeSocialMediaHelp.com/fanpage)
With this strategy you are reinforcing your own brand within the mind of your prospects and
customers.
