How to Use Facebook: Profile, Timeline, and News Feed.
If you’re actually doing an official event, like a marathon for example, then search for it and see if it’s listed on Facebook. If it is, add yourself to it. If you’re doing your own thing and you want others to take part, then you can build your own event on Facebook and send it to your friends.
It’s best that you send some sort of report to Facebook telling them that you cannot post on your own timeline. I have never heard of this so I am not sure. Do you have two accounts? Did you get mixed up as to the one you were truly logged in to.
Facebook’s own page which has over 26 Million fans gets roughly between .1 to .3% response. Therefore, reach out to a set of audience you think could help you with the business. If you are a wedding photographer, it makes little sense to promote your page to someone in Iran when your operational area is limited to India.
Facebook has its own classified ads service to challenge the likes of Gumtree and eBay, named Facebook Marketplace. It's available via the iOS and Android Facebook apps, plus desktop browsers too, and allows sellers to list items with photos and descriptions, tagged to a certain location, for free.
In a typical week, I write three or four obituaries for The Wall Street Journal. Now, in my spare time, I’m working on one that is trickier than usual: My own.
Facebook now has over 2 billion active monthly users. 1 billion of those users participate in Facebook Groups. Creating a group of your own is an inexpensive and effective way to reach your target market. If you’re not already familiar with Facebook Groups, it’s essentially a community within Facebook’s platform that users can join and participation is encouraged.
In addition to writing your own comment, you can also tap “Tap to Change” at the top of the screen to change where you’ll share the post (your personal News Feed, a group or a page).
