JUMP INProfile vs. Page

Businesses are only allowed to create pages NOT profiles.

A business which opens a profile page is in direct violation of Facebook’s ‘Terms of Use’.

JUMP INProfile vs. Page

Facebook Pages cannot add people as friends. They can ‘only’ like other Facebook Pages.

When companies like each other on Facebook, they can help promote each other’s content.

JUMP INProfile vs. Page

There is a 5000 friend limit on each profile.You can have an unlimited number of fans on your

Facebook Page.

JUMP INProfile vs. PageProfiles can interact in Facebook Groups! We

love and use groups!Facebook Pages can not interact in groups,

however, they can create events, just like a profile can.
