So, hopefully by now you have your vanity URL setup and your blog is being displayed on your facebook page.

Now it's time to setup your own custom landing page.  If you haven't heard of a landing page before, it is the page on a website that you arrive on, or land on.

When someone browses to your Facebook fan page for the first time, the landing page is the page that is displayed to them.  Facebook allows you to configure landing pages for new visitors or non-fans, so that they land on that custom page instead of your wall.  The goal of the landing page is to convert new visitors into fans by providing them with information that makes them want to become a fan.
