How to Make a Post Shareable on Facebook

Here’s a step-by-step guide to making your post shareable on both desktop and mobile.

Create or Find the Post You Want to Make Shareable

Start by creating a new post or locating an existing one that you want to make shareable.

Adjust the Privacy Settings

To make a post shareable, set the privacy settings to Public.

Op bureaublad

  • Open the post you want to make shareable.
  • Klik op de drie puntjes in the top-right corner of the post.
  • Selecteer Edit Audience (of Edit Privacy).
  • Kiezen Openbaar from the list of options.

On Mobile

  • Open the Facebook app and locate the post.
  • Druk op drie puntjes in the top-right corner.
  • Selecteer Edit Privacy.
  • Kiezen Public.

Setting the post to Public allows anyone on Facebook to see and share it, whether they’re in your friends list or not.

Make the Post Public While Creating It

If you’re working on a new post, you can adjust the privacy settings before publishing.

  • Start typing your post in the status box.
  • Before hitting Post, click the audience selector (usually set to Vrienden by default).
  • Selecteer Openbaar from the list, then click Na.

Your post will then be shareable from the moment it’s published.

Tips for Creating Shareable Content

Once your post is shareable, consider these tips to encourage more people to share it:

Tips

  • Add Images or Videos: Visuals tend to attract more shares than plain text.
  • Include a Call-to-Action: Anchorage others to share by adding a message like, ‘Freel free to share if you agree!”
  • Make it Meaningful: Shareable posts are often inspiring, funny, or timely. Think about what people would want to share.

When to Be Cautious About Shareable Posts

Making a post shareable opens it up to a larger audience, so be mindful of privacy. For personal or sensitive content, consider adjusting privacy settings to limit visibility.
