I didn't know it was against their rules. I thought as long as the email address is different then you can create more than one.Well going by Facebook rules and TOS you are only allowed to have one Facebook account. Many people create others but if you do then you are taking a chance of losing 1 or all of your Facebook accounts.
It would be better IMO to just have one Facebook account and create Facebook pages for other needs such as your marketing efforts.
I have known many people that have lost accounts that were built up with lots of friends, likes, etc. because they had more than one Facebook account.
You can do it but just make sure that you understand that you are risking your accounts if you do that.
I am just creating one account for my profile and add my business as a Facebook pages to it. It helps me to manage everything under one roof. Creating multiple accounts is take a lot of time.
Like joegirl, I once only had one fb account which I tried to use for everything. I ended up creating a facebook page for one of my blogs, and I started generating traffic there and getting "likes" on an almost daily basis. Also, I have maxed out my fb friends at five thousand, so I've been told it would be a good idea for me to open up a fanpage for my writing presence online, and so I am looking into that,
When it comes to Facebook posts, I try and keep all of my content on their native platform. Photos and videos are all uploaded to Facebook instead of linked out, since Facebook's algorithm naturally prioritizes content that's hosted on their site. Because of this, I just use the analytics that are built into Facebook to see how well my posts perform.@JoeMilford , There is a limit on the number of friends you can have? What about some of these big businesses and celebrities? Do they make special conditions for some?
@happybear , A Facebook page has less limits?
@TheArticulate , Are the analytics through Facebook or do you set those up somewhere else?
@alexanderzx360 , Thanks for the tip about the sharing and commenting. I don't know things like that so I will take a note for that one.
@yemzy , As long as you have separate email accounts then that is ok?
