facebook cover and timeline for pages

Now Facebook have released the timeline and covers for company and brand pages as well. Now you can make them look like profiles, with a big picture on top and the timeline under, going back to when your company were founded, with pictures, videos and stories.

Why use Facebook timeline and covers on your fanpage?

First, it goes live for everyone on March 30 anyway, so why not use it already and be a pioneer? Second, it is so much nicer with the big cover photo on top where you can show whatever you want that describes your company. And with the timeline, you can add your whole company story to Facebook, your Facebook page will attract a lot more attention than a normal looking page.

How to add Facebook timeline and covers for our page?

The only thing you need to do is to browse to your page as an admin, and then check at the top of the page, where it says “Coming Soon: New Facebook Pages”.

Opportunities with the new page look!

With the new timeline and cover-look you can give a lot more space to your apps, you are able to spread them out to full width of the page. I just wonder when non-branded Facebook pages with hundreds of thousands fans starts to sell the big cover photo as ad space? What do you think?
