I have a product I’m selling as a hobby. I created a Facebook page for my ”company”. Now there are two things that puzzles me. But let me first say: 1) While I have had a Facebook account for years, I mainly used it to follow some groups; I almost never create stuff on Facebook, so in that sense this is new to me. 2) I have googled on these issues, but either I come up with lots of hits about other things, or stuff that is several years old with information that’s obsolete. So here goes:
The page: I created the page this Sunday. It took a couple of days before it turned up my own Facebook-searches. It still (Thursday) does not turn up for other users (wife and daughter being test girls). The page’s status is ”Published” since Sunday.
Q1: Is there something else I need to do, to make my page publicly available?
The post: During Sunday, I posted a message on this page. I can see it on the page, but when I choose to look at the page ”as a visitor”, the post is not visible. There is a ”Marketing”* button, but when I press that it seems not to be a ”do you want other people to see this”, but rather, ”do you want to spend a couple of dollars on marketing”.
Q2: Is there something else I need to do, to make my post publicly available?
Thanks for taking time.
- Or ”Market post”, or something like that. My GUI is not in English.
