Facebook has literally grown as a mammoth social engine and has become a part of our lives and so are its applications. Promoting your business or website through Facebook applications is more common now. If you have an application ready then you can easily make it run on Facebook and here is how to do it .

First of all you would need to have a Facebook account (Am I silly to ask you this!!!!, well its my duty to ask you..) and it should be verified too.

Before we begin let us discuss a few details of a Facebook application. You will have to create any app and upload it to your own website. After this all you need to do is to integrate your application (its URL)with Facebook.

Now follow these steps :-

• Login to Facebook

• It will ask you to allow to access your basic information.

• Allow it to access your basic information
• Now enter your basic information and click “Facebook Integration” tab in the left sidebar.

• Enter the details like canvas page and canvas URL.

Canvas Page here refers to a blank page on Facebook where your application will run. Canvas URL refers to the URL where the application is uploaded.

• Now where you have uploaded your app, upload the following code :-

<?php

require_once 'facebook-php-sdk/src/facebook.php';

// Create our Application instance.

$facebook = new Facebook(array(

 'appId' => '192599714095836',

 'secret' => '70a0cdc377ed31756446e1c16d1e274f',
