Facebook Like Button On My Website To Like A Facebook Page, Not My Website

I have a Facebook like button on my website, however as it works currently it only lets users like the page that they are currently on. Is it possible to make the button like our Facebook page instead of our website?

Sounds like a great idea but be aware you will be pushing users back to facebook rather than back to your website – Astrodome 14/5, 2014 at 7:3

You can use the badge creator to create a badge for your page that a user can interact with for "like" purposes.

Hmm, that's not exactly what I had in mind. You know how you can like a website, is there nothing that lets you like a Facebook page in the same manner without using Facebook badges? – Hirsh 27/3, 2011 at 23:53

Ah, then this should work for you. Just use the URL for your page e.g. facebook.com/dwaynespage. – Lovelorn 27/3, 2011 at 23:55

Haha, I feel like an idiot. Why didn't I just think to put the url to the page in the like generator. Thanks Matt. – Hirsh 28/3, 2011 at 0:7

No problem. There is also the "like box" generator here if that suits you better. – Lovelorn 28/3, 2011 at 0:8

Go to the developers page which provides Social Plugin. There, just add at the "URL to Like" of the button, the address of your facebook page. E.g. http://www.facebook.com/mypage

enter image description here

This way, once the users push the like button, your facebook page will get automatically a like and they will also follow the updates of the facebook page

This is because you haven't put your right page url in facebook like box generator. Go to you facebook page and copy the link from there. Now use this to generate facebook like box. You can also get help from this http://www.codematrics.com/my-website-and-facebook-page-have-different-likes/
