Now as you scroll through the news feed on Facebook whether that's on your
mobile device or on pc you see something of0 interest
you want to share there's lots of options for you to do
that. So like this beginner's facebook guide you click share and i'll
show you all the different variety of options available
in this video. Here we go. So let's take a closer look at those options so
when you click share particularly a post you're interested in
the first option is share now and that's to your
personal profile so whatever option you've got set at the moment i've got it
set to only me but i could have it set to friends
so if i say share now
that's instantly gone without any further interaction but if i say
share I can specify where i can share it to.
So i'm saying share to my timeline but here i can adjust
whether it's seen by only me specific friends friends or public.
Also a relatively recent option is you'd share to your
story so that's an updated story that goes out
for 24 hours just to your friends and contacts
on Facebook appears a little square in the corner
and they'll be able to see that.
There's the privacy message option so send it as a message to somebody
directly share it into a group that's
particularly useful for this one if you think of a group that's relevant
all you need to do is type in the name so free social media training
that would be great. You have the option to include
the original post which gives it further context
so i'll say this
is a useful guide and then hit share
and that will go instantly into that group
and the final one is to share to a page that you are the admin of. Also you can
share it to your friends but yes sharing to a page is probably another commonly
used one. Interestingly you can share that to
a variety of different pages and you can post
the admin of the page or potentially yourself. Let's just have a look quickly at the
new Facebook interface and see if it looks any different
so i'll switch it to the new version
and here i can see the message the post in the feed and i can
click share share now
write post so that's the new version of sharing to a particular place that you
specify so you can say i'll change that to a variety of
different privacy options.
Other options there sending messages share in a group
so not currently supporting the send to a story or share to a story mode
but everything else is there. So that's how you share posts and
really it's important to share wisely don't share everything although
you can go back and share the same articles several times in different
groups.Ii suggest you don't try and spam too
many at once that usually infringes Facebook's
regulations etc and it's not great practice but clever
sharing and using it wisely for example sharing things just to
yourself that you can easily come back to later
and study these are great uses for a Facebook share option so that's it
