1. Add the Static HTML Application to your Facebook Page

Go to the Static HTML Application, and scroll down the page to click on the link “Add to My Page.” These simple instructions are also shown on the application page.

2. Edit the “Welcome” Tab

Head over to your Facebook fan page, and find the “Welcome” link in the left-hand sidebar under the page image. You can create a regular custom tab by only filling in the top text box. Or, you can create a reveal tab by placing the pre-fan content in the top text box, and the fan-only content in the bottom text box.
Your default content should be something that encourages users to like your Facebook page, possibly by using something like an incentive, discount, or exclusive content

Your reveal content should provide your new fans with whatever you were offering, such as something to download, a discount code, or a link to the exclusive content. You might also want to thank people for liking your page.

3. Edit the Tab Title

Go to your Facebook page and click the “Edit Page” button on the top-right corner.
Then click “Apps” on the sidebar.
Then scroll down the page until you see the Static HTML application.

Clicking “Edit Settings” will bring up a lightbox on which you can edit the name of your tab. Type in your tab’s name, click “Save,” and then click “Okay”.

4. Make your Reveal Tab the Default Tab

You’ll want to make sure that your new reveal tab is the first thing that visitors see when they have not yet liked your Facebook page. To do this, go back to Edit Page, then click “Manage Permissions.” In the Default Landing Tab dropdown, select your new reveal tab.

Option #2 – MyTab – 5 Steps (includes Google Analytics integration)

1. Add the MyTab Application to your Facebook Page

Go to facebook(.)com/revealtab, and scroll down the page to click on the link “Add to My Page.” You’ll then see a lightbox appear listing all of the Facebook pages you manage; click “Add to Page” next to the one you’d like to create this iFrame reveal tab for.

2. Edit the Name of your Reveal Tab

Go to your Facebook page and click the “Edit Page” button on the top-right corner. Then click “Apps” in the left-hand sidebar, and scroll down until you see the MyTab application.
Clicking “Edit Settings” will bring up a lightbox on which you can edit the name of your tab. Type in your tab’s name, click “Save,” and then click “Okay”.

3. Edit the Reveal Tab Content

Back on the Edit Page screen, click “Go to App” under MyTab.
Here, you can edit your Default Content (the content that appears BEFORE a Facebook user has liked your page), and the Reveal Content (the content that appears AFTER a Facebook user has liked your page).

4. Enter Google Analytics Tracking Code

The new iFrame capabilities allow you to do things you weren’t able to do with FBML, like track your tab stats with Google Analytics. MyTab gives you a place to enter your Google Analytics account ID so that it will track your tab. This is awesome.

5. Make your Reveal Tab the Default Tab

You’ll want to make sure that your new reveal tab is the first thing that visitors see when they have not yet liked your Facebook page. To do this, go back to Edit Page, then click “Manage Permissions.” In the Default Landing Tab dropdown, select your new reveal tab.
