First before dealing with how to create a great looking facebook fan page, first lets check out how to create a simple fan page:

Login into your facebook profile and go to the bottom of the page and click “Advertising” link on the footer. Select Pages from the next page option and click “Create a Fan Page”. On the next page, you will have to select a proper category, example for a website “Brand > Website” and later fill in the info of the website, like the URL, About us etc.

Facebook Fan Page

Once you have created a simple facebook fan page now its time to spice it up to make it look great. First upload a image to the Facebook Fan Page to depict the website. A  Square space logo would be a nice option.

Now, the important part! The looks! Go to Applications on the left menu and select Static FBML. You will be asked to enter a title for the page and in the FBML field you can paste a designed webpage in HTML. Just take care the images use the full path of the server and are not relative.  After pasting the HTML, save the page and go to FBML tab and click Edit Page > Manage Permissions:

Choose the new Tab as the Default landing Tab and your facebook fan page designed by you is ready! Example of a Facebook Fan Page of a Marathi Newspaper : http://www.facebook.com/MNeta
