What Is Facebook  Merging??


Facebook have some usage policies and Facebook always try to make it more user friendly as possible. Facebook always refuse everyone to don't create multiple pages of same name. So to reduce these pages Facebook introduce the option of
merging pages. Sometimes we got pages from someone of the same name of our existing page. But using 2,3 or more pages of same name is not an good idea because you have to post on each and every page differently. But by using merging option you can combine or in simple transfer likes from one page to another which results in the form big page.

Lets take example:-

Suppose if you have 3 pages of same name 1st with 10,000 Likes , 2nd with 8,000 likes and 3rd with 2,000 likes.

Now using these three pages separately is not a good part. Then you have any opportunity to to transfer small pages into big one means By using merge option of Big pages you can select small pages and merge them after merging same will not exist and their like will transfer into big one means now only one page will left with combine
10,000 + 8,000 + 2,000 = 20,000 Likes

which is really amazing. So its a great opportunity for you also to merge them.

  1. First, make sure you are an admin of all pages. This includes your main page and any pages you would like to merge.
  • 2.Next, confirm your pages are both actual pages, and not profiles or groups. You cannot merge a profile. If you need to convert your profile into a page, check out the section below.

  • 3.Then Your pages name must be similiar name to each other.
