Many Facebook apps are easily available in the market which claims that their user can check who viewed their Facebook profile. However, most of them are fake and use of those apps might be a threat for your Facebook profile.

How to Check Who Viewed Your Facebook Profile the Most?

The question arises in my mind too, and for your confirmation, I want to mention that there is no official way to know who viewed my profile on Facebook. Still, there are few Android applications, Chrome extension and geeky ways to see the visitor of my Facebook profile. Let see the techniques. You can easily identify your profile visitor using Facebook profile ID even if the user changes his/her name on Facebook.

Method 1: How to Track Who Viewed Your Facebook Profile – Manual Way

1. To know who views your Facebook profile, login to the Facebook account and go to your timeline page of Facebook. If you are new on Facebook, then to go the timeline, click on your profile picture and you will reach at your timeline. The URL of Facebook timeline looks something similar to https://www.facebook.com/{your profile name}.
2. Right click on anywhere on the opened page and select “view page source option”. If you are a Chrome user then just type Ctrl+U and the source page will open.
3. Press Ctrl+F (‘Cmd+F’ for mac) to open the search box at the top right corner of the source page.
4. Type “InitialChatFriendsList” there.
5. You will find a list of numbers there which are actually the profile IDs of the people who are recently checked or visited your Facebook profile.
6. 
7. Just type add the profile id beside facebook.com URL just like the below example. You will find the person who visited your profile frequently or recently.
8. The URL should be something like this: https://www.facebook.com/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/ but not like this https://www.facebook.com/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx-x/.
9. The small number that you will find after the ‘-‘ (e.g. 2,1, or 0) is the indication of how often a Facebook profile user sees you and who visits your Facebook profile the most.
10. The first ID of the list is the regular visitor while the last ID is the rarest viewer of your account.

However, some people says that these are not true. But, many experts say that this is the only possible way to know who viewed my Facebook profile.
