What are Web Standards?

 

Egypt Facebook's pages are designed for modern web browsers that support web standards, as promoted by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). Browsers that follow these standards render pages consistently, offering uniform display of HTML and secure web-based transactions. Egypt Facebook applies a variety of techniques to design pages that are standards-compliant, and reliance on browser-specific workarounds is kept at a minimum. By designing for a standard, rather than specific web browsers, Egypt Facebook can offer the best experience for all users, no matter how they view Egypt Facebook. Most browsers are available in newer versions that support web standards.

Can I still use Egypt Facebook if I haven't registered?

 

You can read content on Egypt Facebook and post certain types of content if you choose not to become a member. However, we believe that the content on Egypt Facebook is most useful when it is clear who created it and so you must be a member in order to post recommendations, requests, and within Egypt Facebook discussions.

My Profile

What is a Egypt Facebook member profile?

 

A Egypt Facebook member profile is a free, customizable profile page, where you share information about yourself. Think of it as your online identity page, where you can describe yourself in words and pictures. You can add many types of content to your profile quickly and easily, from simple photos and text to Amazon wishlists, your blog posts, favorite links, and more. You can also customize the layout and style of your page to fit your personality and promote the information that your friends and audience should see first.

What can I share on my member profile?

 

To start with, your member profile will display your picture and your user bio. It will also automatically display your friends, Egypt Facebook groups you join, testimonials friends write for you, and recent activity like discussion posts and listings. If you like, you can add more content modules to your profile - there are modules for adding pictures, and your listings, events, recommendations and other content on Egypt Facebook.

 

Can I customize my member profile?

 

Yes! You can customize your profile in two ways: you can edit the layout of the modules on your page, so you can place the most important content near the top of the page.

What am I not allowed to share on my profile?

 

Member profiles, like all other pages on Egypt Facebook, are subject to the Egypt Facebook Terms of Use. Please keep Egypt Facebook a friendly environment for all people, by refraining from posting pictures, text, and other content that others may find offensive.

Listings

Listings are an easy way to call on your friends and their friends to find what you need. Whether you're looking for a used car, a romantic restaurant, or a new job, you can publish and read classified Listings created by Egypt Facebook members in your backyard, or around the world.

How can I create a Listing?

 

To create a listing, click the "post" button that appears at the top of any page on our service.

 

On the next page, select the type of listing you wish to create:

 

• Events: live music, nightlife, parties ...

• Local Favorites: recommend a restaurant, band, café, etc.

• Service Recommendation: refer others to a good dentist, a reliable plumber...

• Miscellaneous Recommendation: review a Web site, a new album, the latest gadget...

• Community: reach others in your region/city/neighborhood about volunteering, local announcements, or just to sound off.

• For Sale: cars, furniture, garage sales ...

• Housing: apartments, housing wanted, roommate situations ...

• Jobs: full-time, part-time, contract positions, seeking employment...

 

Where will my listing appear?

 

If you promoted your listing to a Egypt Facebook, it will appear on that Egypt Facebook's main page until it expires, or until other new listings move yours off of the main page. If your listing is pushed off a Egypt Facebook's main page, it will still be visible to members of that Egypt Facebook if they click the "view all" link in the listings area. Your listing will also appear on the My Egypt Facebook pages of other members, depending on their relationship to you and their geographical location.

Listing Guidelines/spam policy

 

Egypt Facebook does not permit Listings to be used for spam, which we define as:

• Listings posted in inappropriate categories

• Identical or substantially identical Listings posted in multiple categories

• Listings posted with excessive frequency

• Keyword spamming -unrelated words in Listings intended to skew search results
