Do you have a Facebook Page for your business or non-profit organization?
Have you wondered how to edit the order of the tabs now located underneath your Facebook Page's logo or image?
Well, you're in luck!
Facebook Tip: Editing Tabs On Your Facebook Fan Page
I was recently asked about how many Tabs Facebook will allow, and how to place them in an order of preference. The video below is meant to give step-by-step guidance for doing just that!
A few things...
- As of March 2011, Facebook's maximum allowable image/log size has changed.
- Each Facebook Page should have different Tabs - based on industry & desired use of the Page.
- It is highly recommended that you use a Welcome Tab on your Facebook Page.
- It is not the number of Tabs that matters, but how you utilize your "online real estate."
A good banner image will trump the tabs and their order. So make it good!
Take the video tour on editing tabs:
Pretty simple, huh?
Important Takeaways
- Current trends are logo or banner images of 180 x 540 pixels (maximum).
- Including a call to action with an arrow to your Tabs in that image makes a difference!
- Play with the size of this image to get maximum use of your "online real estate."
- If you have a low number of Tabs on your Facebook Page, it may default to show all Tabs.
Welcome Tabs
A Welcome Tab with a good call to action and simple lead to the Facebook Like Button just about doubles your visitor-to-fan conversion!
Facebook just updated their regulations on creation and installation of Facebook Tabs in April, 2011. If you would like help with a good Welcome Tab for your Facebook Page, please contact me.

Can you make one of these but with the newer FB application? I want to know more about editing tabs for my business except this video was with the prior fb correct?

Kat, Your message here was sent to spam — My apologies you have waited for a reply! You may be seeing a video that was not yet updated. I’ve made a few updates, but that one is still coming. I am always available to work through, step-by-step, on Facebook. And, when I update the video, I’ll be making notation on this post to keep everyone current. In the mean time, I do recommend Lujure, Woobox, and ShortStack as good and easy-to-use tab applications for your Facebook Page. Custom images are easy to import. The dimensions for those are 111 x 74. Hope that helps for now! Thanks for your comment and question, ~Keri
