How to post website URL to Facebook timeline? - Ezekiel - 02-19-2014 12:37 PM
I want to post my website's URL on my Facebook timeline, so people can just click it under the cover photo and be directed to my website. Is this possible, if yes how?

1. Log in to your Facebook account with your username and password.
2. Open the page you want to post in another tab or browser window. Highlight the URL and right-click on the address. Choose "Copy" from the drop-down menu. If you are more comfortable with the keyboard shortcuts, just press "Ctrl+C" instead.
3. Click back to your Facebook window. Click the Facebook logo if you don't see the "What's On Your Mind?" field at the top of your page.
4. Click in the "What's On Your Mind?" field and then right-click and select "Paste" from the drop-down menu. You can also use "Ctrl+V" from your keyboard as a shortcut to paste. This will put the URL in the box. Depending on the site, Facebook may bring up a preview, summary and image of the site below your post. In any case it will also create a link.
5. Delete the URL from the "What's On Your Mind?" field; it's no longer necessary.
6. Type in a post if you want describing why you're linking to the site.
7. Click the "Post" button to post your link to your timeline.
