How to Create a New Facebook Account.
In order to make use of Facebook, the first step is to create a Facebook account.
This can be carried out from the main homepage ( www.facebook.com ) or from within the dedicated mobile app, which is available for Android and iOS devices.
The main sign up form is present on the homepage, under the heading ‘Create a New Account’.
You can also go directly to Facebook’s dedicated Sign Up page, but it basically has the same form as the homepage
On this form, you will need to enter the following information:
- Your Name
- Your Mobile Number or Email Address
- Your Password
- Your Date of Birth
- Your Gender
You must use a valid email address or mobile phone number, as you will need to use whichever of these you provide to verify your account creation. If you opt to use a mobile number and you receive an error message when signing up, make sure you have included the area code for your country. If it still fails, use an email address instead.
The Facebook Sign Up page looks like this screenshot. Fill out all the fields to create an account.
Please note, that your Facebook password must be atleast 6 characters long.
Once you have entered all of this information, click on the ‘Create Account’ button and follow the instructions to complete the sign up process and create your new account.
It is worth noting that Facebook is completely free to join, but you must be at least 13 years old in order to create a Facebook account and use the platform. This minimum age is now standardised for most users around the world, but may vary in some countries.
