Still don’t have a custom FaceBook page for your business? Well it’s time to inspire you to make one. The showcase below is a collection of 50 custom Facebook pages of top brands & celebrities. Some of them are just pictures, some use Flash or Javascript, but mainly they are plain HTML pages. The only thing you need to keep in mind while designing a Facebook page is that tomorrow (August 23rd) Facebook is going to shrink page width to 520px.
World’s Best Brands
Those are the guys with enormous budgets, that can afford to hire the best designers and Social Media Marketers. Some of their pages really impress, while some of them could really come up with something more exciting.
Coca-Cola
Intel
Nokia
Toyota
Disney
McDonald’s
Mercedes-Benz
BMW
Gilette
Louis Vuitton
Honda
Samsung
Pepsi
Nescafe
Dell
Sony
Budweiser
Nike
Ikea
Harley Davidson
eBay
MTV
KFC
Nestle
Pizza Hut
Motorola
Adidas
Smirnoff
Bulgary
Levi’s
Celebrities
Celebrities are known to use every opportunity to make people speak about them. However when I checked the Forbes 100 list of celebrities it appeared that most of them do not have a decent page on Facebook, so what I collected here is mainly musicians. In addition you can check a showcase of Facebook pages of Top DJs.
Lady Gaga
David Guetta
Rihanna
Britney Spears
Snoop Dogg
Ozzy Osbourne
Tokio Hotel
Even more pages
The number of beautiful custom pages is growing every day. Lots of web designers are now offering custom Facebook page design jobs as well as ready-made FBML templates. There are even some Facebook applications which let you build a custom page for your business. If your page does not look like the ones below – it’s time to do something

Heyyy!! So many retweets of my post… but almost noone is following me on twitter!
Follow me if u like my post – http://twitter.com/michael_vreek
I’m not impressed. None of these is anyting but using a box to show a page/javascript with some nice design but has little or no integration into facebook. The most innovative is Levi’s/Motorola Canada through it’s “click like for more access”…
There is also the Adidas Originals page + apps which is really, really great :

Wow, these are all really great and cool!
Just wanted to leave a message letting you know that the side bar of buttons is annoying and covers up parts of the text. You could at least remove the words, like anyone doesn’t know what the facebook logo is…

I love the coke one. A big red button. It’s such a tempting call to action.
Nice, but these are all FB pages of massive, multi-million dollar corporations who have the resources to hire a room full of designers and developers. Burned out on seeing corp brands trying to be everywhere and now contaminating Social Networks (Who “Likes” a corporate brand on FB or follows one on Twitter?). Rather than collecting corp brand pages, let’s see sites of actual real people who have done creative things with their pages?

Nice collection
pretty good list, I didnt know all this coys have fb pages
[...] Is the wall the default page your potential fans see? They need a reason to become a fan. The wall with multiple updates doesn’t really communicate that. Yes, you will still get fans but if you can boost the chances by intriguing them with what they can expect, why not? Facebook allows for custom tabs & this should be utilised to the maximum. Even though the width of these tabs has been reduced recently, they still form a crucial part of convincing the potential fan. We have found that fan acquisition reduced when we drove the audience to the wall instead of the tab. See some great examples from Coke, Axe Angels Club, Nike & many more here. [...]

Thanks for this great post! I love to see how big brands are using Facebook to market themselves.
Really wonderful pages. thanks for sharing. keep posting
These designs pretty much sum up where the internet is heading. I see more aggressive designs with every new day, and not to mention that web 2.0 is a whole lot more about usability rather than color !
I used a lot of these as inspiration for mine. Thanks to a lot of research I was able to finish it.

I agree with Chris, they’re 520px wide and the top-tab navigation has been moved to the side, presented as a navigation stack—I’m still wondering why they did that. Any thoughts Michael V?
