I access FB on my phone all the time, but I still don't get alerts for my Page. FB doesn't provide alerts for Pages, only Profiles. In order to know that someone has commented on something I posted, or has posted on the Wall on my Page, I have had to go to my Page and look for this stuff. The problem is, I don't have a lot of activity on my Page yet, so often I forget to check.
 
I never set up a business page, but it sounds like a great way to stay up-to-date without having to remember to go look every day.

LOL - Okay, the retired Police Dispatcher is coming out in me ... I can't stop thinking about the fact that this is also a great way for a stalker or controlling spouse/significant other to monitor everything happening on your personal page. :thumbdown:

I thought about that, how you can really follow ANY page. But from what I can tell (and I might test), is that it can only monitor things that are posted for "Everyone". That means you wouldn't be able to monitor a profile that's private.

OK, I tried to "follow" my personal profile and got this:

This URL can not be used. Are you sure it's a Facebook Page and not a user or group.

So it can only be used for Pages.
