25 Great Examples of UK based Facebook Pages

A few weeks back I wrote a blog post that detailed a few tips surrounding building and maintaining pages for brand and companies within Facebook, a post motivated by a blog post I saw on AppStorm. In the meantime the guys from eConsultancy have also written a detailed blog post surrounding some brilliant examples of Facebook pages that have been created by brands. But its not just these two though, there are hundreds of blog posts that cover the same topic – but there’s a problem - all of them predominantly cover either pages that have been created for US or Global markets.
Don’t get me wrong, I think that these posts are really useful as they provide useful insight into the direction and the technical limits in which you can take your Facebook page, but whats happening in the UK? Are we that far behind? With the UK being such prolific users of social media I can’t believe that this is entirely the case.
With this in mind I’ve created a list of 25 great facebook pages that have been designed and are maintained to specifically cater for the UK market – lets not underestimate them – collectively they have an audience of over 4 million! It’ll be really interesting to see how these pages, and other top brands such asMcCainBritish Airways and Amazon that are less developed within facebook develop there offering, evolve over time and importantly create a strong UK focused network within facebook.
