i think you can post anything there in facebook.

I doubt t's illegal (eg. punishable by law), but it may be in breach of Facebooks terms and conditions. If you were reported for it, they'd just close your account (assuming you did breach ts&cs) But advertising sites on social networking sites is common so i wouldn't worry about it.

Read section 12 here - http://www.facebook.com/terms.php?ref=pf

its legal to advertise your website/company on facebook many companies advertise their site on there.

Yes, it is. so long it is a positive message and not a negative one. you can also check their safety and privacy rules.
