I was recently asked by a fellow marketer, who shall rename nameless to save his embarrassment
, where he could find his facebook profile link, so that he could create a simplified link, like mine: –
https://mattgarrett.com/facebook
so here’s a quickie on how to find the link, and although Andrew
didn’t need this bit, I’ll also show what html code to use to create the link.
when you log in there should be a link with your name on the right at the top of the page, the link will look something like –
http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=776035400&ref=name
then just remove the “&ref=name” bit from the end so it’s like this –
http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=776035400
you can then use this url in a standard html page for the redirect, here’s the html code to use, just replace the url with your own profile url: –

then save the file as index.html and upload it to a NEW folder called “facebook” and you will end up with a link that looks like this and is easier for people to remember: –
https://mattgarrett.com/facebook
hope this helps! 🙂

Today, there’s a simple way to get an easy facebook profile link, just open this link : http://www.facebook.com/username/
You’ll get your own 🙂
But you have to login first.
Yup, thei is the easiest way to do it now, Facebook started offering this option just a few weeks ago, so the potential downside is that someone else has already grabbed your name…
cheers,
Matt
