Timeline for Facebook Brand Pages is coming - very soon!

Now that users have become familiar with Timeline for their new profile, companies with Brand Pages have been wondering if they'll see the same change. Facebook has kept it quiet but back in the middle of December Mashable wrote a story about the speculation. Although a rep from Facebook could not say exactly what a Timeline Page will look like he did say, "the article Mashable wrote about it is very much on target."

Here are some highlights from some information we did find out from Facebook:

Timeline will be launching for brand pages sometime next month

• Brands will have a few weeks to play around with it before it is automatically pushed live to all brand pages
• The timeline page for brands will be similar to the current timeline profile for individuals

Icons under the cover photo will be tabs

A photo will be associated with the tab icon

There will be a cover photo

A brand will have the opportunity to “feature” updates

• Facebook is still unsure where the brand page will default

Currently you can choose if the brand page defaults to the wall or another tab

This may not be the case with a timeline brand page

We will be publishing more updates very soon as more information is released!
