Once you have reached this page, it will show all the fan pages on Facebook. Not exactly what you were looking for? Look next to the search box and you will see a nice, big "Create Page" button. Click this button and you will be taken to a page that looks like this:
Step One: Select the "Artist, Band, or Public Figure" option. This should supply a drop down box allowing you to be more specific. Scroll down and select "Band" or "Musician" -- whichever fits your musical persona best.
Step Two: Give your page a name, preferably the name of your band or your artist name. This will also be the name found in the search results if people come looking for your band, so make it work to your advantage.
Step Three: Click "Create Page" to complete.
You are off to the races with your very own band page on Facebook. You'll want to add a profile photo and fill in all the profile information to finish the page, then you can start spreading the word. And remember, don't just tell the Facebook people about your new Facebook band page -- post it on your blog, your website, your Twitter, and whatever other means you have to get information to your fans.
You can always come back here to http://www.facebook.com/pages to find your page, where you can click the link across the top labelled "Pages I Manage" to get you right to the list of pages you have built. The direct link for managing your pages is http://www.facebook.com/pages/manage.
Feel free to submit any quick questions you might have to info@webformusicians.com or you can post it in the comments of the posts here. And there's always Twitter...
