One of the key aspects of running a Facebook page is consistent posting, but if you manage a page for a business, organisation or cause, you probably know how hard it can be to think of engaging and relevant updates – especially when you’re trying to post something every day.

We recently found a great infographic explaining how to write effective status updates on Facebook, and other social media platforms too. The ten tips it listed included:

  1. Post an interesting fact
  2. Share a tip
  3. Endorse content
  4. Don’t always ask a question
  5. Inspire action
  6. Tell users what to expect
  7. Add a P.S.
  8. Use short links
  9. Use images with text
  10. Ask users to comment

We’ve included the infographic below, which goes into more detail for each of these points.
