multiple facebook accounts?

Can I get more than one facebook account? I wanted to do one for personal use, and one for accepting friends that I don't really know personally, but just through websites and forums. Can they be linked, or do I need to open a totally new account with different email and login info?

Hi. connerrebel. I think that you can have more than one account. I now have two accounts that are active. And one of them, I am still trying to find a way to gain access to it. If I do, then I will have three accounts at Facebook. I am unsure about the linking though. Maybe you can contact the help section about this feature.

I don't see why not. I have friends who have multiple facebook account as well, they do what you want to do, one is for family use, one is for business use.

You will need to have different log in info and different email addresses. The only way you can have more accounts w/the same address is if you run a business and you set up an account for that (I own my own business and I have it set up this way). I also wouldnt want my personal accounts to be linked since then it can get confusing as to which account is being commented/liked, ect on

yeah, you can make multiple facebook, but i guess you will need multiple emails to confirm them.

Yes you can but what you have to do is to create a saperate email address and new facebook account by putting that new email address in the fields

1. You can only get 1 Facebook account per email. 2. If you have 2 Facebook account you cant link them together 3. I think the best solution is to create 1 account but make multiple groups for your contacts. This will allow you to manage what each group are able to see on your wall or post.

I'm pretty sure there is no way to link them altogether since most people only have one. You would have to sign up for a new one with a different email.

hi connierebel, i dont think it is possibal to use 2 different a/c as linked or on 1 mail id.for that u need to make second a/c on different mail id.and i would suggest u can always set privacy on your current account if you have something you dont wanna share to public.
