I do not understand the difference between “Home” and “Profile”. Some info written on profile is not on Home and visa versa and some info is on both. What is the difference and what is the point of each?

Melissa – looks like you need to play around a bit and solidify how it works. I haven’t looked into this recently. So, I’m at a loss myself. When you figure it our do share with us. Thanks for stopping by.

I have a fan (business) page and of course, an admin profile attached to that. I’m having trouble differentiating what my fans see based on what i post.

for instance, i have 45 ‘friends’ on the admin profile page and 50 or so ‘fans’ on my fan page. If i post a status update or link from my fan page, my fans don’t necessarily see that link. If i post it from my admin profile page, my FRIENDS see the link, but not my fans.

i don’t get it. There should be some kind of flow chart that tells what you post where and who gets to see it. Do you know of anything like this?

thanks for any input or advice!

Hi Scharlotte,

Simply having a page or a profile on Facebook is not really that valuable. You need to define a purpose for it and outline a reason to have this outlet. Maybe it doesn’t make sense for you, but it can certainly be useful in certain markets.

Thanks for stopping by!

I still don’t see the purpose of having a “home” and a “profile” page. Nor do I understand the purpose of each. Thanks.

Hi KateNonymous,

I wouldn’t presume that this is the most current information considering how fast things seem to change. However, there does appear to be major difference between how things worked in the fall vs. now. I wanted to condense that information into one place as a resource. I appreciate your comment and would love to get some of the more recent information you reference if you would be able to share.

Thanks!

This all seems true for a month or so ago. I’ve found that since the latest redesign, pages have become more like profiles, and that’s not necessarily to the business’s benefit. The creation of pages–and the limitation of profiles to individuals–predates the redesign, so I’m not sure how that is a recent development either.
