I’m sure you have been hearing the buzz behind Facebook releasing the newest move to timeline on their pages. Yes there are pros and cons, people are either angry or excited. We could talk about it but everyone already is let’s do something about it. Let’s dive in and make our timelines beautiful!

5 key items to be aware of

March 30th! – Everyone will be switched so start planning now!

Cover Photo – Dimensions for the large cover image is 851 x 315 pixels.

Follow the Rules! – The rules for cover photos >> no ads, no call to actions, no contact info, no mention of like or share. Nothing word based. Read more.

Profile Photos – The photo you upload must be at least 180 x 180 pixels

No more landing pages - But people are still coming up with some great ways to use the landing page app to create buttons on their favorite section

Want some Great Examples?

I started to through some samples of great Brand Timelines from Facebook on this post but as I was looking for articles to give me clues to who had already switched I found no post. Okay I found a couple posts but I was surprised at how hard it was to find good examples and to find who had switched over. So I decided to write a second post listing up to 60 different Timelines you should check out. So make sure and check out The Ultimate List of 60 Amazing Brand Timelines on Facebook.
