How to convert your Facebook profile to a Facebook page

Sometimes, as a starter you may create a individual profile instead of a page for your business so as to connect to as much as people you desire. On Facebook, you will find a lot of businesses and organizations who are still using a Facebook profile instead of a page. It is nothing against the Facebook rules but, they are missing everything which a page has to provide. And once you reach out to a lot of people, it is a really good idea to convert your profile to a business page with which you can instantly notify your fans about events, discounts and special offers, see to how many people your post reached, the stats about people like from which area they are and of which gender and age group they belong.

So let's find out how to do it!

Step 1- Log in to your personal account.

Step 2- Go to account settings and tap on ‘Download a copy’ option.


Step 3- Then, click on ‘Start My Archive’ option and again click on ‘Start My Archive’ option which you will find on the pop-up window and then click ‘Okay’.

Depending on the days that it has to download, it will take a bit of time to download this copy. Once the downloading process is completed, you will receive an email confirming that the download is completed.

Step 4- Click on the link which was provided to you along with the email and again click on the ‘Download a copy’ option.

Step 5- You will be asked to re-enter your Facebook profile password to continue. Hence, enter your password and click on the ‘Continue’ option.

Step 6- Now, click on the ‘Download Archive’ option which will appear on your screen to start downloading your data. Store this data somewhere safe!

Step 7- Then, go to help center and search for ‘convert profile to page.‘ Here, you will find a topic which says ‘how to convert my profile to a page’. Tap on the link which says ‘begin here’.

Step 8- You will now be directed to the pages section. Here you can choose what kind of page you want to convert your profile into.

Alternative Method:

Simply goto this page.

Once you choose the page to which you want to convert your profile into, enter the required details and check the, I agree on box and click on ‘get started.’ To confirm the migration, enter the password of your profile and click on ‘Confirm’. Then, enter the security text and click on ‘Submit.’ Then you can enter the ‘about’ column as it is optional.

So that's how we do it. Thanks.

Amazon’s Alexa can now listen and respond to whispers, and she will whisper back. Now first, this might set off another wave of anxiety for privacy advocates. Your virtual assistant is not only spying on you and potentially recording or storing your conversations, now she can do even if you tried to keep your voice down. Amazon’s team just made that sensitive microphone function even more acutely. Video demonstrating Alexa whisper: So, why do we need to whisper in the first place? Will it come handy in anyway? Yes. If you whisper, “Echo, play a lullaby,” for the infant who’s almost asleep in your arms, Echo will whisper back, “Here’s a station for lullabies from your Amazon Music library,” instead of screaming at  full startling volume. What's more? Whisper is not the only important feature that will come to Amazon Echo devices this year, we also have bunch of new ones.

Microsoft Edge Arrived for Android and iOS

Last week, Microsoft made a pretty surprising announcement. The company revealed that it would bring its Edge browser to iOS and Android, making it easier for existing Edge users (and possible converts) to take their browsing history, bookmarks, and other data with them. Now the beta app is available for download from the Play Store for some countries. But others can download the APK to give it a try. So how is the browser itself? Well, it feels like a mix of desktop Edge and mobile Chrome. The start page has your frequently-visited pages with a search bar, along with stories from MSN below that (which you can turn off). The UI is split into an address bar and Reading List/History/Bookmarks button at the top, and everything else at the bottom. Both bars pull away as you scroll down the page, and re-appear when you swipe up. Familiar Microsoft Edge features like the Hub allow users to organize the web in a way that cuts through the clutter, making it easier to find, view and manage thei...
