Introduction: 

Many people get confused about Facebook's professional mode. Some think it's a replacement for a business page, but it's not. It's for creators with lots of followers who can't make money from their videos because Facebook doesn't allow profiles to become full business pages.

1. Administration: A Facebook business page can have many admins or editors, but professional mode can't.

2. Promotion: A business page can be promoted to get more followers and likes, but in professional mode, you can only promote specific posts, websites, and videos.

3. Follower Interaction: You can invite friends to follow your business page, but in professional mode, your friends and people who sent you friend requests are automatically your followers.

4. Profile Switch: You can switch from professional mode to a normal Facebook profile, but you can't do that with a Facebook business page.

5. Monetization Restrictions: If you live in Nigeria, you can earn money from your business page even if your audience is elsewhere. But with professional mode, you can only earn money from where your profile is registered, unless you stop earning completely.

6. Interaction Abilities: You can send a friend request in professional mode, but you can't do that with a full Facebook business page.

7. Technical Issues: Professional mode has some issues, like the number of followers changing sometimes, but a business page doesn't have these problems.

8. Monetization Challenges: Making money from a Facebook business page is easier than with professional mode in Nigeria, but it's the opposite in Europe or America.

9. Conclusion: For making money, a Facebook business page is better in Nigeria than using Facebook professional mode.
