When it comes to getting your page verified on Facebook, it’s actually a lot easier than you may think! Throughout this blog, we will do our best to break down the process in simple steps that can be replicated and followed.
The contents of this post will allow you to realize that the steps will vary between verifying a personal Facebook page as opposed to a business page. In addition to this, it is essential to understand the reasoning behind verifying a page and this post will also address this aspect of verification.
Although both badges mean that you are verified in some way the different colors do have a purpose. A blue badge on the page or profile essentially means that Facebook has confirmed that this public figure, media company or brand is genuine.
A grey badge on the page ultimately means that Facebook has confirmed that the page belongs to a genuine organization or business house. Badges can also be simply categorized as follows,
Blue badges: For Celebrities and public figures.
Grey badges: For local businesses and corporations.
Although this is an option, getting your personal page verified is extremely difficult and more often than not, is only a reasonable option for celebrities and well-known athletes. You’ll need a lot of followers, which is much more difficult than you may think. Keep in mind that this isn’t required for standard business pages.
Once you submit your personal Facebook profile for verification, Facebook will get in touch and ask for documents that can help prove who you are. Usually, this is done by sending personal info such as a copy of your license or form of photo ID to verify your identity.
As you can see the process is a lot more personal and has some additional steps not needed. Therefore, it is highly recommended to create a page for yourself and try to get that verified; it will be significantly more comfortable and far more practical.
Keep in mind that specific pages are more likely to be verified easier than others. Some of the categories for verification include,
-Journalists
-Popular Brand or Businesses
-Government Officials
-Celebrities
-Media
-Entertainment
-Sports Companies
Similarly (if this applies to you) you can also put your personal profile under Public figure by going to the about>category section on Facebook.
To get your business page verified, it is best to follow the presented steps.
The steps are as follows:
