I just created a fanpage for a client but I want it to show up when someone goes to the url.

Like this

Code:
[url]http://www.facebook.com/cocacola[/url]

How do I make the page I just made be the landing page?

Right now you have to go to

faceb00k.com/pages/clientsite/442134219
 
a redirect from the hosting Cpanel to the facebook page URL will probably work if I did understand your question
 
Well I want it so when someone goes to faceb00k.com/ClientsPage I want my new page I just created in fbml.

For example

I want
Code:
http://www.facebook.com/pages/Pure-Infrared-Saunas/148950205156077?v=app_4949752878

to be just
Code:
http://www.facebook.com/PureInfraredSaunas

Like the CocaCola page does.
 
If you need a custom url, go to http://www.facebook.com/username/

Under "Manage Permissions", set the Default Landing Tab to your custom tab. Only non-fans and people not logged in will default to this tab. Users who have already liked the page will default to the wall.

I already created the custom name page

All I see is the information page, (website, Contact number) and a add as friend button
 
once you set your alias, go to "manage permissions" and set your landing tab
 
I dont know, I have the wall settings to show the custom fbml tab, but its not coming up when I go to

Code:
http://www.facebook.com/PureInfraredSaunas
 
This is what I see:

Thats when your not logged in, When our logged in, you see the Information page.

you wont be directed to the landing tab if you already "liked" the page.
 
go to facebook.com/username not your actual user name.. the word username and follow the directions.. you have to have at least 25 fans in order to change the name of your fanpage

Is it a fan page or profile? You can't set a default landing tab for a profile. If you're on the actual fan page, click "Edit Page" under the profile pic and then "Manage Permissions".
 
Thats the thing, I dont like the page yet. I made my wife like it and I didnt just to see the difference.

I need to make it where people can click on Become a Fan.

this might be a stupid question, but have you added the fbml app? I'm not seeing any extra tabs only "wall" and "info"
 
This is what I see, I have the custom FBML page as the landing page

So pretty much I need 25 people / friends in order to create the fan page landing?

And I did create a page, 1 for a product, 1 for a business. so really 2 total
