They allow you to set up an individual page for each property under the umbrella of your main business page. When you create separate location pages, Facebook will add a new Locations tab to your primary business page. Other users will be able to search location pages or see which branch of your business is closest to them using this feature. In this article, we will guide you through the process of setting up Facebook location pages for individual business addresses.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Create a Facebook location page step-by-step<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before you can create Facebook location pages for your company, you need to enable this feature in your account. To do this, to go your Business Manager account, locate Assets and click on Business Locations. Choose the relevant Facebook page from the menu located in the top left part of the screen. Next, click the Get Started button on the screen that appears.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keep in mind that if your main business page already has a location set on it, you will see a warning telling you that the address will be removed from that page. You will need to set up a separate location page with that address instead. This is done specifically because the main page serves as the umbrella page for the business. Therefore, it can\u2019t have a specific location.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you\u2019ve completed this part of the process, you will be able to start creating location pages. You can do this by pressing the Add Locations button. Once you do that, you will be given three options:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can enter the address of each business location manually. This option is good is you have only a handful of locations to add.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Move an existing page to the Location Manager. This option is suitable if you already have multiple pages for different locations.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Create and upload a CSV file with all location addresses. Note that this file has to be formatted using a template provided by Facebook.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you decide to enter the information about your location pages manually, you will need to fill in all the details in the respective fields and press Save. Keep in mind that you won\u2019t be allowed to change the names of these pages since they are generated automatically.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Change and add information on the location pages<\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Edit and Optimize Your Facebook Location Pages<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most of the information on location pages will be generated by Facebook automatically, so you will need to visit each page, double-check the information found there, and change it if necessary.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can find all the location pages by going to your main Facebook business page and pressing Settings. Next, you will need to scroll down the page and press the Locations button, which can be found in the sidebar on the left side of the screen. This will take you to the Business Locations dashboard. You will need to open the Locations tab to view all the location pages. Next, go through each page one by one and enter the website address, phone number, and opening hours for each location. You can also add location-specific details to the Story section to make the page more appealing to customers.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FAQ<\/span><\/h2>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-code\">\n<div class=\"faq-question\">\n<h3 class=\"faq-q\">What are Facebook location pages?<\/h3>\n<div>\n<p class=\"faq-a\">Facebook location pages are separate business pages for each individual office or store your company has.
