Tell a page from a profile
Tell an organization from a person before connecting to either.
A profile belongs to one person. A page belongs to an organization — a store, a clinic.
You become friends with a profile. A page is followed instead, which goes one way.
Key points
- A profile is one person; a page is an organization
- You follow a page, and following needs nobody’s approval
What to remember
- Followers mean a page. Friends mean a person.
- Page and followers mean an organization. Profile and friends, a person.
Try this
Search for a store you use and read the small word under its name.
