How to make a Facebook Profile

Facebook is the perfect platform to tell your story. If you’re a little unsure of how you can get started, there’s some good news - Facebook is easy and only takes a few minutes to set up. Best of all, its free!

Step 1 – Sign Up

1. To create a Facebook profile, you will first need to sign up for one.
2. Visit www.facebook.com - You will be greeted by the sign up field.
3. Type in name, email address, password of your choice, sex and birthday.
4. Facebook will send you a registration email next. Log in to your email account and click on the link in the email.

After signing up, you can start to customize your profile page and add friends. When you first sign in, you will be asked to join a regional network. If you choose to do so, everyone connected to that network will see your profile page. If you are concerned about who can view your details, change the privacy settings to ‘friends only’ that way only the people you add as a friend can view your profile.

Step 2- Add Content

Make your Facebook page a reflection of who you are - update your status, add some pictures and videos and write a little bit about yourself.

Step 3 - Add Friends

Search for your friends and family and ‘Add as Friend’. You can find the people you know by using your current address book in your email account.
