Facebook has revealed a dedicated site for businesses to rival the efforts of Google+, highlighting all the reasons they should be on the social networking site. Information can be found from a dedicated URL, facebook.com/business, which takes users step by step through the various services available once you’ve set up a page for your brand or business.
The social networking site advises retailers that it makes sense to be where their customers are, and with 750 million members worldwide, there's a good chance their customers are on Facebook.
At the moment, business and social networking are clearly a hot topic. Google is working as fast as it can to get its Google+ business profiles ready, and Facebook is really pushing its business offering.
