Steps
-
1Open Facebook on your Internet browser. Type www.facebook.com in your browser's address bar and hit ↵ Enter on your keyboard. You can use a browser of your choice such as Chrome, Safari, Firefox or Opera.
- If you aren't automatically signed into Facebook on your browser, enter your email or phone and your password to log in.
-
2Click on the search field. The search field is located next to the Facebook "f" logo on the blue navigation bar at the top of your browser window.Advertisement
-
3Search for a business. Enter the name of the business you're looking for and click the magnifying glass icon to see all results.
-
4Note down the business page name. Sometimes a business may use special characters to stylize their name on a Facebook page. Take a note of their full name on their business page to make sure you're tagging the right business in your post.
-
5Click the Home button. This button is located next to your name on the blue navigation bar at the top of your screen. It will open your News Feed.
-
6Click Create a Post. This button is right above your profile picture and the "What's on your mind?" text field at the top of your News Feed.
-
7Type @, and then enter the business name. Typing an "@" sign before the name turns it into a tag in your post. You will see a drop-down list of people and business pages with names matching your tag.
-
8Select the business you want to tag. Click on the business page from the drop-down list to tag it in your post.
- Usually, you can tag a business in a post without liking their page. However, if you can't see the business you're looking for in the drop-down list, go back to their business page and click Like. Liking a business page will push it higher up on the list for you.
-
9Tap Post. This is the blue button in the lower-right corner of your post. It will publish your post on your Timeline.Advertisement
