So what do you *really* need to make a great Facebook IFrames page?
It’s pretty simple actually…..
You’ll need a website page that is no wider than 520 pixels.
In other words, potentially a fixed-width page.
You know how bunches of WordPress blogs and the like make their pages full-screen?
That’s not the case here….here, it needs to be less than or equal to 520 pixels.
You’ll need to create a “Facebook application”.
And don’t panic!
First…You sign in at the Facebook Developers page.
Then you click “Set Up New App“.
NOTE! Your account has to first be verified before you can do this, either by adding your mobile phone number OR your credit card.

Once your app is done, you’ll need to:

That’s generally accessed via the Application Profile Page (step 12 in the link above).
Finally, you simply:
Add that application to your page.
And you’re done!
Neat, eh?
Remember, Facebook is here to stay!
So make sure it helps your business big huge bunches. Your future bottom line will thank you for it.
Grow strong,
