  5. Facebook Features You Didn’t...

 

Whether you use the popular social media site Facebook for personal use or professional networking and advertising, you can harness the potential of all the site’s hidden, extra features.

  • Schedule Facebook Page Posts Up to Almost 6 Months in Advance

You can schedule posts on your Facebook Pages (but not profile or groups) for almost 6 months in advance. Create your status the way you normally would by including text, photos and/or links and then click the little clock to pick a date and time.  This is incredibly useful if you or your business has an important event coming up and you want to make sure that all your social media is ready!

  • Create ‘Interest’ Lists

You can use interest lists to group together Facebook pages with similar topics, or from a certain group of people, in order to categorise and prioritise your newsfeed.  Additionally, you can follow interest lists others users have created too.  Interest lists can be public, only for friends or private. There is a section for Interest lists in the left sidebar on Facebook.

  • Page Insights

Facebook provides Page Insights to Page managers about people's activity on their Page.

"Page Insights is a great tool to help you learn more about the types of posts that really resonate with your audience," says Facebook software engineer Phil Zigoris. "For example, you may find people engage more with posts that include a photo or a question. After you promote a post, you can click on the Promote button again to see how many actions, such as page post likes, page likes, or link shares were a result of the promotion."
