What You'll Need
Computer or Phone
A device dedicated to this Facebook account. Consistency matters.
US VPN
YourVPN with a clean US IP that Meta doesn't flag.
Fresh Email
New email not linked to other Facebook accounts.
45 Minutes
Time for complete setup and initial warming.
Step-by-Step Setup
Prepare Your Device
Before anything else, configure your device:
- • Set region to United States in device settings
- • Set timezone to US (EST, CST, PST, etc.)
- • Set language to English (US)
- • Disable location services for the browser/app
- • Clear browser cookies or use private browsing
Connect to YourVPN
Get your US IP address working:
- • Open YourVPN and connect to US server
- • Wait for "Connected" status
- • Verify your IP at whatismyipaddress.com
- • Confirm it shows a US location
Critical: Meta is extremely aggressive about detecting VPNs. YourVPN's residential IPs are essential - datacenter IPs get flagged immediately.
Create a New Facebook Account
Create your account while on VPN:
- • Go to facebook.com
- • Click "Create New Account"
- • Enter name and email address
- • Create a strong password
- • Set birthday (must be 18+)
- • Skip phone verification if possible
Important: If phone verification is required, the country code reveals your location. Try using a US virtual number service, or create on mobile where verification is sometimes skipped.
Warm Up Your Profile
Before creating a Page, act like a normal US user for 3-5 days:
- • Add a profile photo and cover
- • Join 3-5 public US-based Groups in your niche
- • Like 10-15 US Pages related to your interests
- • Scroll your Feed for 15-20 minutes daily
- • Watch Reels from US creators
- • Don't create a Page yet
Why this works: Facebook builds a trust profile for new accounts. Rushing straight to Page creation triggers spam detection. Acting normal first establishes legitimacy.
Create Your Facebook Page
Now create your business or creator Page:
- • Click Menu → Pages → Create New Page
- • Choose Page name and category
- • Add profile picture and cover photo
- • Fill out "About" section in English
- • Add contact info (can use US-based contact if available)
Warm Up Your Page
Before posting content, establish the Page:
- • Invite a few friends to like the Page
- • Post 2-3 simple introduction posts (no links)
- • Like other Pages in your niche as your Page
- • Wait 2-3 days before posting Reels
Post Your First Reel
Now you're ready to publish video content:
- • Create content relevant to US audiences
- • Post during US peak hours (12-2 PM EST, 7-9 PM EST)
- • Use trending audio that's popular in the US
- • Write captions in English
- • Start with Reels - they get the most algorithmic push on Facebook
Verify US Reach
After 1 week, check your Page analytics:
- • Go to your Page → Professional Dashboard → Insights
- • Check "Audience" section for location breakdown
- • Review individual post/Reel insights for viewer locations
- • Look at "Reach" to see where impressions come from
Success indicator: If 40%+ of your audience is from the US, you're on track! Continue posting consistently during US hours.
Golden Rules for US Facebook Success
Always use VPN
Keep YourVPN connected every time you access this Facebook account
Post during US hours
Best times: 9-11 AM EST, 12-2 PM EST, 7-9 PM EST
Engage in US Groups
Participate authentically in US-based Facebook Groups in your niche
Use US trending audio
The trending sounds in US differ from other regions - use what Americans are using
Don't log in without VPN
One login from your real IP can flag your account and damage reach
Troubleshooting
My Feed shows content from my real country
Facebook cached your location. Log out, clear all Facebook cookies, reconnect to VPN, and log back in. Spend time engaging with US content to retrain the algorithm.
Page reach is very low
Facebook throttles new Pages heavily. Keep posting consistently (1-2 Reels per day) for 2-3 weeks. Reach typically improves after establishing a posting pattern. Ensure VPN is always connected.
Account got restricted or disabled
This often happens with consumer VPN IPs that Meta has flagged. YourVPN's residential IPs have much lower flag rates. If disabled, you'll need to start fresh with a new email and device fingerprint.
Can't run ads from this account
Meta is very strict about ad accounts from VPNs. Focus on organic reach first. If you need ads, consider verifying your identity and building account history over several months before attempting ads.
