Most of the Facebook profiles today, are using usernames in their URLs. Of course, who would remember a numeric ID that long. But now, especially for Facebook developers, some applications requires that numeric ID. And since you only have a username in your URL, it seems like its nowhere to be found.

I will show you a simple trick that will help you find your Facebook ID. It’s simple, and many users already know how to do this in different ways. All you have to do is:

1. Log in to your Facebook Account.
2. Go to your profile.
3. Click your profile picture
4. Copy the URL in your browser.
5. From there, you will see: http://www.facebook.com/album.php?profile=1&id=xxxxxxxxxx

The xxxxxxxxxx in the url is your numeric Facebook ID. It’s as simple as that! You don’t need to download any 3rd party tools, and I suggest you better start learning to discover things by yourself. Good luck!
