To pin a post to the top of the page, all you need to do is click on the three-dot menu icon on the top-right corner of the post. When you do so, your page will refresh with the newly pinned post. To unpin a post, you can also use the same process on Android devices.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Creating_a_call_to_action\"><\/span>Creating a call to action<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve ever looked at a Facebook post, you&#8217;ve probably noticed the call-to-action button located beneath the link title and above the description. While you may not see this type of button on every post, it can make a big difference for a brand. Social media marketers know the value of call-to-action buttons and know that users are more likely to take action on a post when prompted to do so. Adding a call-to-action button to your Facebook post is essential for engagement metrics.<\/p>\n<p>Using a Facebook call-to-action button is easy. You can make them appear on all devices, including mobile. They will also be displayed beneath the cover photo and above the map. Facebook does not currently offer hover cards, but it says it&#8217;s investigating new features. Using a call-to-action button will also allow you to track the number of clicks on your button.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Creating_a_welcome_message\"><\/span>Creating a welcome message<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One way to make your Facebook page stand out from the competition is to create a welcoming message. Your message can include your brand&#8217;s identity, unique sense of humor, and specific products. For example, Sunscreen Plus, a skincare and makeup company, uses an exclamation point to set the mood for its fans. Likewise, you could add a team photo and a recommendation for Netflix shows.<\/p>\n<p>In a welcome message, you can confirm that the customer has taken an action that will benefit them. It will help you establish a relationship with the new customer, and you can also promise future benefits. Make sure your welcome message fits the style and marketing campaign of your brand. If your welcome message is too generic, you can always use a custom message that&#8217;s tailored to your brand&#8217;s style and tone.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Using_announcements\"><\/span>Using announcements<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When you want to highlight a post on your Facebook page, you can use the Pin to top feature. You can pin a post to your Facebook page and have it stay at the top for as long as you like. However, if you want to keep it at the top for a longer period of time, you can unpin it and remove it from your announcement. Simply follow the steps below.<\/p>\n<p>You can also use the announcement feature to pin a post to the top of your Facebook page. But this function is limited to groups and public figures. When using announcements, make sure the post is beneficial for people to click through and share it with their friends and followers. Pins can be especially useful for blog posts containing new content. You can pin a post to your Facebook page if it&#8217;s about a new release or policy change.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Using_Audience_Insights\"><\/span>Using Audience Insights<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Using Audience Insights to pinpoint when to publish a new post can help you reach your target audience. This report displays a number of insights, including your audience&#8217;s age and gender. You can also learn what types of content they tend to engage with most, and find out the best times of day to publish them. If you want to make the most of your Facebook page&#8217;s audience, you can use the insights to tailor your content to their interests.<\/p>\n<p>Facebook Audience Insights are the most important aspect of Facebook advertising. They give you valuable demographic data that allows you to tailor your ads to the right target audience. Using these insights will help you tailor your ads to your ideal audience and maximize your overall ROI. However, you should always remember that Facebook is not a free platform. You need to invest in social media analytics software if you want to get the most out of Facebook.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Only_pinning_one_post_at_a_time\"><\/span>Only pinning one post at a time<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When you are pinning a post on Facebook, only pin one from your entire feed. The reason for this is because content with a visual aspect gets viewed 94% more than those that contain text. Therefore, when you pin a post to your page, make sure to include an image with it. Images are best at 404 x 404 pixels. You can either search for a photo online or hire a digital agency to add them for you.<\/p>\n<p>To pin a post to your Facebook page, you must be an admin or an editor. Highlighting is an option that displays a blue ribbon on the upper right corner of the update. You can find the Highlight option in the same menu as Pin for pages. Once you&#8217;ve added an image or video, you can select &#8220;Pin to Page&#8221; to pin it to your page. The post will then appear at the top of the page with a notification.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/vGNwAyMQC2c\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" width=\"499\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"279\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Pin a Post on Facebook If you want to share a post with a larger audience, you can use the Pinning feature of Facebook to do just that.
