When you have a Facebook business page, you have two separate profiles with Facebook: your personal profile and your business page profile. Each profile allows you to view Facebook, post status updates, and comment on other posts. But depending on which profile you’re using, you show up as either your personal profile (you) or your business page profile.

Just look for the Edit Page button on Facebook, and then follow these simple steps: Click the Edit Page button.

One of the new features that Facebook has rolled out to both a personal and business Page is the ability to add a Milestone to the Timeline.

The tips for creating engagement are the same for Milestones as they are for regular posts.
