How do I find the url for my facebook site?
« on: April 20, 2009, 10:52:09 AM »
Hi Everyone,
How is everyone doing? I keep trying to figure out how to find the url for my facebook site? I keep looking all over and haven't figured it out. Like where do I need to click to find out what it is so I can give it to my friends.
I've found my url on other sites like Myspace. That seems to have something that says my url.
I tried asking one of my sisters who is using facebook now too and she seemed to think that my url is something I don't want to be giving out, which I don't understand. How can people view a web page without typing out the url?
Thanks,
Amy

    Hey Amy,

    Simply google your Facebook Username (or full name) and there you will see the top link will be your profile, that is the URL to your facebook.
    Use what talent you possess.

    I tried but it doesn't seem to be working.
    Maybe I'm not doing something right. It comes up with so many different people with my name.

    Go here: http://www.facebook.com/ and log in. Then click on the link in the navigation bar the find your profile.

    I still don't know if I'm doing this right. I don't seem to have anything that says find your profile. Where exactly on the page will this be listed?
    Is the navigation bar the address bar? or is it somewhere else? I'm never sure where all these things are called

    I'm sorry I don't really know Facebook, but I'm sure once you are logged-in, it can't be that hard to find...

      When you log in. At the top of the page on the blue menu bar, right click "Profile" and click "Copy link location". Paste it wherever you want...that's your link right there.

      Edit: This is you private profile link, not your public one.

      I think I may have found it.
      Does this sound correct? http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=1042585713&ref=profile
      or is it this one
      http://www.facebook.com/people/Amy-Rossing/1042585713

      The reason I'm trying to figure it out is so I can give people the url for my site so they can go to it. One of my friends I talk to on Myspace I can't seem to get to her site because every time I try it crashes my computer for some reason, and she has facebook also and she needs to know my url so she can add me to her friends list on facebook.

        Nope, second one shows you and your friends, first one is a search of you. And it only shows you.
