How to Pin a Post on Facebook: Tips for Pinning Posts

Have a great Facebook post that you want to remain visible over several days or weeks?

Pinning a post to your Facebook profile is one of the easiest – and most effective – ways to ensure that your best and most important post is the first thing visitors see when they land on your Page. Here’s everything you need to know to get the most out of this handy Facebook feature.

What Does Pinning a Post Mean?

Usually, when you think of pinning something online, you think of a Pin on Pinterest, but here we’re talking about pinning on Facebook. Pinning a post “pins” the content to the top of your Page or the top of your profile (either a Facebook page or a personal profile, depending on the type of Facebook account), meaning that it won’t be pushed down your timeline each time you publish a new post. It’s the first thing visitors see when they view your Facebook timeline, making it particularly useful for welcoming the new followers you’ve gained after you boost followers on Facebook (thanks to your Facebook follow button, of course), for making visitors aware of any Page or community rules, or for conveying other essential, need-to-know information.

You may also remember the now-extinct ‘highlighting’ feature, which expanded the width of the post to two full columns, making it more attention-grabbing than the typical post. While highlighting a post is no longer possible, pinning a post is one of the best ways to make sure your most important posts are visible.

The first thing to know about pinning Facebook posts is that you can’t do it on your personal timeline – pinning is only possible on a Facebook ‘Page’. And, in order to pin a post, you must be an administrator or editor of the Page.

So how do you pin a post? It’s easy to do:

  • Find the post you want to pin in your timeline.
  • Click on the “more” icon (the three dots) in the upper-right of the post.
  • Select “Pin to Top of Page.”

And that’s it. If you’re successful, a label that says “PINNED POST” will appear above the post (indicating that it’s pinned) and the post will move to the top of your Page.

(Ready to unpin your post? Follow the same steps, but select “Unpin From Top of Page.”)

How to Pin a Post in a Facebook Group

Facebook is always changing things up. While it’s possible to pin a post in a Group page, you’ll use a feature called Announcements. The benefit of announcements is that you can have up to 50 at a time, while pages are limited to a single pinned post at a time, and your announcements also appear in their own special tab so members can easily access all announcements. Keep in mind, though, that having dozens of announcements can weaken the value of individual announcements and even make them less visible, so it’s best to reserve announcements for time-sensitive or important information. Only admins and moderators can make announcements.

After designating a post as an announcement, you do have the option to pin the announcement to the top of the page’s timeline. And, Group admins can set an expiration date for these posts, meaning you won’t need to remember to remove timely announcements later when they’re no longer relevant. According to TechCrunch, as of June 2021 Facebook is testing some additional features for Groups, including the ability to pin comments and a new type of announcement called “Admin Announcements” that will notify all members who are subscribed to notifications of important Group announcements.

When should you use announcements? They’re ideal for conveying Group rules (or changes to Group rules), recognizing certain members, letting your members know about upcoming events or special offers, answering commonly asked questions, and more.

So how do you create a Group announcement? It’s also a simple process:

  • Click the “More” icon in the upper-right corner of the post.
  • Select “Mark as Announcement.”
  • Choose an expiration date and click “Confirm.”

To remove an announcement before it expires, follow the same steps, but select “Remove Announcement.

Now, if you want to make sure that your announcement is the first thing your members see when they visit your Group, you can pin it to the top:

  • Go to the announcement you want to pin.
  • Click the “More” icon in the upper-right corner of the announcement.
  • Select “Pin to Top.” (If you want to unpin a previously-pinned announcement, select “Unpin from Top.”)

Tip: Encourage your Group members to turn on post notifications in your Group. That way, they’ll get a notification each time you make an announcement – so you don’t need to count on every member visiting the Group to stay in the loop.

To ensure that an Announcement stays at the top, you can then pin it after marking it as an Announcement. Click the three-dots icon […] again and select “Pin to Top.” If you later want to remove its pinned status, you can click the three-dots icon […] and select “Unpin from Top.” 

To remove an Announcement from a Facebook Group from your Android phone, follow the same steps and click “Remove Announcement.” It will be removed from the Announcements section but will remain in the Group feed.

Tips for Getting the Most Out of Pinned Posts and Announcements

Here’s a sampling of a few creative uses and valuable marketing and tech tips to help you get the most out of pinned posts and Group announcements.

  • Pin your latest blog post on your Page to drive traffic. To take this strategy further, install a Facebook Messenger button on your blog to make it easy for readers to discuss your blog posts with their friends.
  • Use pinned posts to promote sales, exclusive offers, or product launches. If you’re offering a limited-time discount or special offer, a pinned post is an excellent way to ensure that your Page followers or Group members are in the know. Likewise, if you don’t want your upcoming product launch to get lost in the sea of other posts or discussions, pinning these big announcements to the top of your Page or Group will help you get the word out.
  • Make an announcement in your Group about upcoming events. Set up a Facebook Event so your members can RSVP and help to spread the word (make sure that announcement includes a link to the Event page).
  • Use announcements to make members aware of Group rules and keep the peace.  If your Group discusses controversial topics, this is a must for your sanity. It’s also a good idea to create announcements to establish some ground rules, such as off-limits topics, prohibiting profanity, and keeping the conversation civil. Reserve the right to remove Group members who fail to abide by the rules and turn off comments on posts that are generating too much conflict. That way, your members know what to expect.
  • Use images, videos, and links in pinned posts and pinned announcements to draw attention and increase engagement. Like regular posts, pinned posts and announcements will grab more attention if they include an eye-catching image or video. Including a link to more details makes it easy for followers to find out more without having to embark on a Google search. Plus, you’ll answer more questions proactively by including a link to more information, making Page or Group moderation a bit easier.
  • Use a mix of evergreen and timely pinned posts. Sometimes, you need to pin a post to convey urgent or time-sensitive information, such as a limited-time offer that’s about to expire. In other cases – or when you don’t have anything urgent to communicate to your followers or members at the moment – you can use pinned posts to showcase the best of your brand. For instance, if your brand has been recognized for your charity work or won an award in your industry, a pinned post highlighting that achievement makes a stellar first impression on new visitors to your Page or Group.
  • Rotate your pinned posts often. Of course, it’s helpful to keep vital information front-and-center, but remember: you can only pin one post at a time on a Facebook Page. So, consider using that premier Page real estate to highlight intriguing content, special announcements, or timely news – and move your evergreen content (such as Page rules) to the About tab.
  • Leverage Facebook Audience Insights. Analyze your data to discover the types of pinned posts your audience engages with most. Or, you can use Insights to find the posts with the highest engagement to decide which post to pin.

It seems that the one constant with Facebook is change. While these features probably won’t be around forever, pinned posts and Group announcements make it easy to draw more attention to the content that matters most. So take advantage of the opportunity to test some creative uses and boost the visibility of your most important posts – no ad spend required.

Link the game to your Facebook account - instructions records on a variety of sites and services. When registering, it is enough to enter the access parameters of your account and not fool yourself by inventing various logins and passwords with the risk of forgetting them or getting confused.

This function is especially useful in online games. For fans of this kind of entertainment, the ability to log in through Facebook is just a huge boon:

  1. It is allowed to enter the game space from different devices and at the same time continue the game from the moment of the last save.
  2. You can invite friends to the game and share achievements with them.
  3. The social network will help you recover your password in case of an emergency.
  4. The strong data protection provided by Facebook is also protection against account hacking in the game.

How to link a game to an account?

There are three ways to link the game to Facebook with full preservation of game progress.

  1. If the developers have provided the possibility of linking the game to Facebook at the time of authorization, then it is better not to put it off. When registering, enter your login / password and enjoy the benefits of logging into the game through the social network.

  1. You can "make friends" with your Facebook profile at any time. The social network provides such an opportunity.
  2. Add a game from the Facebook app center.

Synchronization on a PC

The ability to link a game account to Facebook is already such a common practice that developers of almost all popular games provide for this feature.

Options in game interfaces may vary, but in general terms, the principle of linking a game to a Facebook account is always the same:

  1. Enter the game with your username and password.
  2. In your account, find and click the button with the Facebook icon.
  3. Most likely, there will be an automatic transition to the social network site, where the user will be asked to match the game name with the Facebook profile name.
  4. Click Confirm.

Important! Most online games limit the number of user links to different social networks. As a rule, no more than two bindings are allowed.

Synchronization on mobile devices

The online game can be synchronized with Facebook on mobile devices as well. To do this, it is desirable to install the Facebook mobile application on the device. Many online games perceive the presence of this application as the willingness of the user to log in through the social network. And after installing the application, the Facebook icon will appear among the authorization methods.

To authorize, you need to click on the icon, enter the login parameters, and you're done. However, this is not always the case. Sometimes there are problems. We'll tell you how to solve them.

If the online game is linked to the mobile version of Facebook on iPhone , then you need to do the following:

  1. Log in to Facebook and allow the game to access your account.
  2. Open the "Settings" in the game, find authorization through Facebook there and check if you are logged into your account.
  3. Go to the list of Facebook applications and check the position of the switch on the parameter "Allow to use the account."

For devices running operating system Android , the procedure is as follows:

  1. Go to "Device Settings", from there - to "Accounts".
  2. Search the list of authorized entries for "Facebook" and make sure that your device is "friendly" with the work profile.
  3. In the list of applications associated with the profile that opens below, find the game and activate the switch.

The game syncs with Facebook only once, and then this synchronization is used to enter the game from both the computer and the mobile device.

If you need to restore progress on a new mobile device, simply connect the game on both the new and previously used device to the same profile. It may not work the first time on a new device, and you will have to reinstall the game.

You can link to Facebook account "Play Games" for Android and "Apple Game Center" - for "apple" devices. Then the user will be spared the manual synchronization of games installed using these resources. The system will do everything by itself.

Additional features of the social network

Facebook has a very interesting option - "App Center". All games added there are synced with the account by default.

  1. Click the "More" button located in the left column of the main profile page.

  1. Select the "Games" section.

  1. Select one of the games offered by the system, or search by name using the search option.
  2. Click Play.

Before adding the game to the account, the user will be given the opportunity to configure the game's access to various information posted in the profile, as well as adjust the audience to which information about the game will be available.

Noteworthy is such a Facebook service as Gameroom . Here you will find online games of various varieties, which you can connect to using your account. However, the service was planned to be deactivated in 2021.

How to unlink the game?

Information about which games the user's account has ever been linked to is located in the personal profile. Therefore, you need to edit this information in the same place.

  1. Enter the "Settings and privacy" menu item, and from there - "Settings".
  2. Click Apps & Games on the left side of the screen.

You will be able to view which games and applications are linked to this Facebook account, adjust access settings or remove the link.

To remove the applications associated with the account, you need to click the "Edit" button in the "Apps, Sites and Games" tab, and then in the window that opens, click the "Turn off" button located in the lower right corner.

When performing these actions, you should take into account:

  1. You lose the ability to quickly authorize via Facebook on this resource.
  2. The game can automatically delete the account along with the history and all the accumulated game progress.
  3. The Facebook Share and Like buttons may disappear from the app.

Therefore, before unbinding the game from Facebook, you need to read the relevant items in the instructions for the game in detail.
