How to Find Your Social Media URLs or Web Addresses
(posted on 17 Mar 2016)

We're thrilled to annouce that we've added a new "Social Media" tab to our Admin Panel! As part of filling it out, you'll need to enter in the various URLs for your social media profiles.

Here are some quick instructions on how to find your social media URLs, a.k.a. web addresses, for the various social networks.

Facebook
For Facebook, you may have two options:

  1. Your Facebook "Personal" Profile - this is your default profile, and / or
  2. Your Facebook "Professional" Page - this is a separate "page" you've setup for your professional posts.
    (If yu haven't set this up, you just have one "personal" profile ;-)

To get the URL for your "personal" Facebook Profile:

  1. Login to Facebook
  2. At the very top, you'll see several icons, including a " down arrow / triangle" (see image below)
  3. Select "Settings"
  4. Write down the part of your Username AFTER http://www.facebook.com/, e.g. rochellegrayson
  5. Go to your Social Media tab in ArtSites and enter this in the Facebook field.

Or, if you want the web address for your Facebook Page:

  1. Login to Facebook
  2. At the very top, you'll see several icons, including a " down arrow / triangle" (see image below)
  3. Select "Manage Pages"
  4. Click on your Facebook "Professional" Page
  5. Click on the "About" tab
  6. Write down the last "part" from the Facebook Web Address
    (e.g. for www.facebook.com/ArtSites.ca - just copy ArtSites.ca)
  7. Go to your Social Media tab in ArtSites and enter this in the Facebook field.

Twitter
The URL for your Twitter profile is http://Twitter.com/YourUsername. If you know your username or handle, e.g. @RochelleGrayson, simply enter your handle - without the "@".

  4. Click on the "Advanced" link in your Account Information section
