As Max has mentioned, Facebook is beginning their highly-anticipated launch of personalized URLs (www.facebook.com/yourname) at the strike of midnight EST tonight. This has incredible importance to small businesses for search engine optimization (SEO) reasons.

For a small business owner, your name in a Facebook URL will help that page rank higher when people are searching for you. The same goes for your business name if you have a Facebook Fan Page.
