Facebook Pages-
You can like or follow a Page to get refreshes from business, associations and open figures. Anybody with a Facebook record can make a Page or help oversee one, as long as they have a job on the page. 
Pages are for organizations, brands, associations and open figures to share their accounts and interface with individuals. Like profiles, pages can be altered with stories, occasions and that's just the beginning. Individuals who like or follow a page can get refreshes in the News Feed.

Profile versus Page-
This is something that frequently confounds individuals. Your profile is close to home to you. You can keep this for loved ones – to share news and pictures – or you can let your fans "companion" you so they get the opportunity to see "in the background" with the individual news you choose for share freely. 
You shouldn't advance your business on your own page (Facebook don't care for it) however you can discuss what you're dealing with, share pertinent business-related stories in a talkative, non-limited time way. It's an unobtrusive distinction however a significant one. 
A Facebook "page" is a "business page" and can be for a reason, character, band, exceptional occasion, and tribute; however, it's a special instrument as opposed to an individual page. You can just have ONE individual profile yet you can have the same number of pages as you like.

• As the page is called “Local Business and Place”, we need to match the interests of small business owners and people interested in small business.
• We have also excluded the page boost to be shown to anyone that already likes the page, as we need not direct the campaign budget on people who have already joined.
