No more cookie-cutter Facebook pages

Facebook Pages are pretty pedestrian, so here's how to differentiate yourself.

Add Static FBML to your Page

Add the app Static FMBL to your Page. This lets you build custom Pages with layouts created in CSS/HTML, or by using Facebook’s proprietary FBML (Facebook Markup Language).

It's still a bit rough round the edges, but here's one I knocked up this week for Tasplan's Super straight up campaign.

Bring it to life

Embed video, display images, add links - go to town. Of course, there are some limitations, but most seem to have workarounds (Google it).

Make it your splash page

Go to Edit Page > Edit Wall. Then set 'Default Landing Tab for Everyone Else' to your new Static FBML Page.

If you have a Page, I'd say it's a good time to think about stepping it up, cause cookie-cutter Pages are a bit lame - not a good look!
