Facebook automatically makesthumbnail images – so start withthe image size you want in your post:

Your content can be as long as you need it to be, and you can include both text and links.

Step 1: Log in to FacebookFirst, go to http://www.facebook.com and login:

Remember if you’re posting notes for a page it will not show a link to your own profile, only a link to the page. You will need to be a page administrator, though, so talk to Emily if you need

Step 2: Open NotesThe most direct way to write a new note is to use the “Notes” tab on your profile or page (for page administrators):

From here you can “Write a New Note” or “Edit Note.”Don’t have this tab? There’s another way to find your notes (next)

Don’t have a Notes Tab?

Personal Notes Page NotesJust click on the

“Notes” tool(only for

personal notes)

Facebook doesn’t have “page” logins, instead it has a tool called “Ads and Pages”

All apps for pages, including Notes, are in this menu.

You can also get to the Notes tool from the “applications menu” on the left sidebar of your home page:

Don’t see these tools? Click on “More” to reveal the rest of your applications.

Page Notes, Step 2 (for Page Admin):

If you’ve never added notes to your page before, look under “Edit Page”, then under “Applications”

Step 3: Editing & Publishing Notes

Basic content sections:1.Title2.Text3.Illustration

(Note: photo layout options will appear after you add a file)

If you need help adding links or formatting your note, check this link for help or talk to Emily
