Facebook is one of the most recognizable social media in the world. It allows you to interact with millions of people all over the globe in addition to its other unique features.You must be at least 13 years old to create a Facebook account.
Basically, all you need in order to join Facebook is a valid e-mail address. Valid means that you need to be able to access the messages in that account easily because Facebook e-mails you a registration confirmation.
Facebook is a community based on real identity. Sign up with the same name people know you by. Signing up with a fake name or alias is not recommended because it will make it hard for you to be found by friends. After you have signed up, you can then add nicknames or maiden names to your Timeline to make it even easier for friends to find you.
