How to Have a Cool Facebook Profile

Step-by-Step Guide

1. 1

   Step 1: Go easy on the apps.

   Facebook is a site to keep in touch with your friends, not to fool around with Farmville all day.
   
   They may be tempting and addicting, but don't add too many, because they will be just a nuisance when it comes to notifications.

   Step 2: Watch your status - try not to put everything you do in there.

   If there is something you want your friends to hear or something cool happened, put it there.
   
   For example, Braves won 7-2 sounds better than I am taking a nap.
   
   Also, don't cram your news feed with app junk, unless it is something cool you would like to show all your friends.
   
   Try to keep your interests to more hobbies or stuff you want to talk about with other, not random things to get tags. , Just narrow it down to your all time favorite bands or whatever, or a certain genres.
   
   It is Favorite whatever, not everything you like. ,, Keep it blank unless you are a confirmed member of a church or whatever or if you are registered to a certain political party. , This could be used for identify theft. , It's Complicated should not be used for crushes. ,, The best pictures are a picture with your best friend or alone doing a hobby of your choice.
