With over 2 billion users, it is an excellent place to unload and share opinions. For your business, it is crucial to maximize this platform. While it can be difficult to maintain and manage all your content, scheduling Facebook posts can help you get through any bottlenecks. If you&#8217;re not sure how to schedule a Facebook post, follow these tips to get started.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"RecurPost\"><\/span>RecurPost<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to automate your Facebook posts, you&#8217;ll need to add the ability to schedule updates to your profile. You can do this by logging into a social media scheduling service like Hootsuite or RecurPost. Once you&#8217;ve done this, you can choose a group to manage. Next, you can enter a title and a color tag. Whether you want your post to be published on a weekly, monthly or daily basis, RecurPost has you covered.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re using RecurPost, you can also create recurring schedules. Simply select the library and click on the RECURRING TIME SLOTS tab. Click the Add Recurring Time Slots button. Choose the time of day you&#8217;d like your posts to be published and click &#8220;Add Recurring Schedule.&#8221; You can also select the number of posts you want RecurPost to automatically post.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Statusbrew\"><\/span>Statusbrew<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re planning to create and share content on Facebook, you can create your editorial calendar with a scheduling tool like Statusbrew. The Statusbrew Planner is a one-stop shop for all of your social media content. You&#8217;ll see a calendar view of every scheduled post as they come in. You can then schedule a Facebook post from your planner at the time of your choice.<\/p>\n<p>After creating your draft, you&#8217;ll need to decide how long you want to post. To select a character limit, click the &#8220;Character Count&#8221; button located in the lower-right corner of the text field. From here, you can choose media to upload to your post. You can also search for free images on the web, upload your own images using Canva, or select them from your Statusbrew Asset Manager.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Later\"><\/span>Later<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you are a business owner, you may wonder how you can schedule a Facebook post for later. Facebook has an option that allows you to do just that. You can choose a date and time that you want to share a post at. You can also select which category you want your post to appear in. After you&#8217;ve chosen a category, you can write a post and schedule it to appear on a particular date.<\/p>\n<p>To schedule a post for later, visit your business page and click on the &#8220;Publish&#8221; option near the top-left corner. You can then write your post, add pictures, tags, or other content from the bottom menu. When you&#8217;re finished, tap the Next button in the top-right corner of the screen. The next screen will show a preview of your post. If you want to delete your post at a later date, tap Delete.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Buffer\"><\/span>Buffer<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking to schedule posts on Facebook or other social media accounts, Buffer can help you do just that. The app makes it easy to schedule content on multiple social networks and connect all of them. Once you&#8217;ve connected all of your accounts to Buffer, you&#8217;ll be able to specify days and times when you want to post content. Creating a schedule will allow you to ensure that your content gets posted when people are most engaged.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re using Buffer on your smartphone, you&#8217;ll find that the app automatically adds an item to your Buffer account when a new Facebook post is published to your timeline. It&#8217;s that easy! And because Buffer integrates with other popular services, it&#8217;s even easier to share your content on social networks outside of Facebook. For example, if you want to share a post on Facebook, you can use Buffer to reply to comments on your posts.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"372\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Q2xvRIRg19Y\" height=\"208\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Schedule a Facebook Post To get the most out of Facebook, you have to maximize its potential.
