Over the past years we have seen, anyone can make a Facebook Fan Page, and manage it, unless they get an abuse report or some famous company sends them a DMCA, you get to keep your page. Now, today, I got an email saying that I need to verify my Fan Page that I created for my blog.
Here is what the email said:-
Our records indicate that you are currently the admin of a Facebook Page with a large number of fans, Tag Your Friends Pictures. To ensure a positive user experience, we require admins of large Pages to confirm their affiliation with the brand, business, person, or entity that their Page represents. Please use the following link to authenticate your Page.
This shows Facebook is now making sure all Fan page owners with atleast 10,000 fans verify their pages, and this can prevent the creation of duplicate and Fake Fan Pages. I have submitted the authentication report, and now waiting to be reviewed by the Facebook team.
If you don’t verify your ownership, you can lose the right to send updates to your fans, which can make you have no control over your fan page, and you cannot share stuff.
