Well I think I had one at one time and I gave up and started over. De-activated my existing account,
I am trying to set one up for my site not for me.
So how does one go about having a business account.
There is a link to add one but then reading farther it states you can't have one.
Then I read that you need a profile and it takes 24 hours to process.

Any suggestions? Do I need to wait the 24 hours?

What's a fbusiness account? Fail to see why someone would need a business account for facebook other than the freely available ones...

Well I am starting to see the shortfall with this.
A business account requires a personal account.
I was just trying to setup a FB account that was just for the site.
Thinking like what this site has. But you can't get there without a personal account then it allows you to add a page.

Well, through using the different types of accounts on FaceBook; a Fanpage really is what one should be using for businesses, sites, etc.

They allow you to Send Notifications to Users and Get Visitor Statistics (emailed weekly to the admin).

Yes but if you visit:
http://www.facebook.com/pages/create.php?campaign_id=368885149649&placement=pgall&extra_1=0
Create a page for my business.
It is a little misleading.
You can only create one if you have a personal account existing already.
This is where I went down the wrong path.

I guess I just don't get it.
But someday I will learn it.

thats for the fan page, you have to have a normal account because that normal account will be the admin of the fan page...
