Facebook news feed?

Helpful ideas here. I’ve been frustrated by Facebook eliminating so many keywords (and doing it inconsistently–one public figure’s name is a keyword but the other was eliminated, supposedly due to new rules). I might try the geographical location trick.

Carolyn, I’m a little confused. What is @suthoryou and what’s the connection to Facebook advertising?

Regarding social sharing icons, they are here. On desktop, they’re at the top and side of each post. The side icons float, so they’re available wherever you are with the post. On mobile, they’re prominent at the top and bottom of the screen.

On content with no social icons for sharing, I always copy the link to share on social networks.

Let me know how I can help.

Sandy

They are mostly #authors who I know would love it. Best, Carolyn

I always loved the flora, not all of the fauna, birds excepted!

Thanks, Vicki! In all honesty, you’re not likely to be attacked by either an alligator or a snake in the Everglades—but there are plenty of other ways to get into deadly trouble down there. Still, it’s a gorgeous place to visit, especially if you like birds.

I’m glad you like it, Vicki! Check out all of Randi’s books in the Death in the National Parks series before your next park visit, too. Better safe than sorry! ; )
