Happy Birthday Facebook!!

The Social Media Giant marks a major milestone as it celebrates its 10th birthday today!!

Facebook was born in 2004 when CEO Mark Zuckerberg was studying in Harvard University, and in the last decade Facebook has attracted 750million daily users across the globe, who are keen to connect, communicate, share, post and update their status.

For business, Facebook offers an opportunity to showcase your brand, engage with customers and tell stories to almost 1 billion people. This is why businesses should consider using Facebook. It is a great opportunity to create an online presence, get a following, discuss products and let the word spread about your skills and expertise.

What is great about Facebook is that although you can pay for Facebook Advertising, you can also reach people organically by keeping your page active, up-to-date and relevant. This way you can reach people at home or on the go as Facebook is compatible with desktops and most Mobile, iPhone and Android devices.

Creating a Facebook account for your business can help you reach who matters to your business and help your business grow.
