So it here you will use your keyword – or combine your name and your keyword. If you are selling used cars – your facebook adresse could be www.facebook.com/UsedCars. Facebook has black listed some generic usernames but there are a lot of posibilities.
By the way – you facebook username/URL cannot be changed ever. So be carefull when you pick it. And – you will need at least 100 fans before you can select a username. Do you have less than 100 fans you will have to wait.

Use the about text box to write keyword dense text near the top of your page.
You have 250 character limit, so choose your words wisely. Seach engines loves keywords close to the top of your page.
