How to post on your Facebook Page as a Page or as You (personnel)

11 April 2018, Commentaires: 0

One of the main concerns of Facebook Pages managers is the separation between the personal account and the Facebook Page.

Some managers want to keep the two completely separate and it's not easy at first to make sure that will be the case.. In this article, I explain how to post and comment on your Facebook Page or on another Page as your Facebook Page. I also explain how to switch between the two, which will allow you to sometimes publish as a Page or as You (personal account).
1. Post and Comment on Your Facebook Page as a Page

You can post and comment on your Page as a Page. You can also post and comment on other Pages as a Page. When you post or comment as a Page, posts or comments do not appear in your personal account, whether in your news feed or your Journal. It's like you're another entity in Facebook, completely separate and distinct from your personal account. If you want the post to appear in your Journal, you will have to share it with your personal account. You will not be able to share it in your Journal as a Page.

You cannot post and comment as a Page on a personal profile. Several people have asked me if it is possible and in my opinion, this option will never be available in Facebook. Par exemple, a “Page” wanted to thank a follower for a comment made on the Page and was attempting to post that acknowledgment directly in the follower's journal as Page. Not possible!

Why we can't post in personal profiles? Because some Pages would abuse this option and invade personal profiles with posts. More, it would completely defy the concept of PageRank in Facebook which aims to promote the publications of Pages according to predetermined algorithms. Donc, forget the possibility of posting as a Page on personal profiles.

TO POST OR COMMENT AS A PAGE (see image below)

  • Click on the wheel and choose your Page.
  • Make sure the publishing preferences box is checked. All publications will then be made in the name of your Page and NOTHING will appear in your personal journal.

2. Post and comment on your Facebook Page as You
