Blogger Tips & Tricks: How to Schedule a Facebook Post

How to schedule a Facebook postI’ve been doing a few improvements around the blog lately, or at least trying to. One thing that bugged me was posting to my Facebook page. I definitely felt like I was utilizing my page. I know some people argue that FB pages are semi useless these days, but I’d still like to use it to the best of its ability. My biggest problem is that I’m usually online very early in the morning. If I post about my newest review on Facebook at 7 in the morning it’s not going to be seen by lots of people. I thought….I wonder if you can schedule a FB status. Turns out you can and it’s really simple. This solved all my problems so I thought I’d share it with you guys. Especially the little button that you click to schedule has always been there and I just never paid attention to it. Maybe you aren’t paying attention to it either. Here’s how you schedule Facebook post for later:

Go to your Facebook Page and write/link whatever you want to say. Then click the little clock on the bottom left.

Then fill out the info for the year, month, date, and time. Click Schedule and you’re done!

  2. You are amazing, Lori! I really need to work harder on posting to Facebook, but when I do this will make it a lot easier. I wish it were a bit more like my Google+ posting, because on that I don’t have to do a thing!

  8. Great tip! I do this on Twitter, but didn’t know I could do it on Facebook. I’ve found FB has way less engagement since the latest update–so few of my posts get seen at all despite having close to 1000 followers!

    • Yeah, I hate that you have to actually pick which pages you want to show up on your new feed now. =/ But I’ve found that posting in the afternoon gets you more views.
