Let’s discuss how to pin a post on your Facebook page so that your followers on Facebook can get firsthand information about the Facebook page and the admin or editors of the page with admin privilege.
The pinned post will stay ahead of other posts on the Facebook page so that your fans and subscribers can see the pinned post before other posts on the page.
In the real sense of it, your Facebook pinned post should be what everybody wants to read such as your Facebook fan page terms and conditions, page description, and perhaps, if you are selling your products and service on your Facebook fan page, the pinned post should depict services you render so that your page followers will get first-hand information about your service and probably links to other information.

How to Pin a Post on your Facebook Group
To pin a post on a Facebook page is similar to pinning a post on a Facebook group. But, instead of the “pin to top” option to pin a post on the Facebook page, the Facebook group uses “Announcement.” Therefore, here in this part of the article, we will quickly discuss how to pin a post on your Facebook group using the announcement feature.
- Open a browser and go to www.facebook.com.
- Click on the three horizontal lines.
- Click on “Groups.”
- Click on the name of your group from the new interface.
- Click on the three dots at the top right of the article you want to pin in the group.
- Choose “Mark as Announcement.”
- Set when the announcement should expire.
- Click on the Confirm tab.
- Done.
The post will be pinned as an announcement and expires on the set date. However, you can pin multiple posts as an announcement on your Facebook group but it’s advisable to minimize the number of posts you set as announcements or pin on your group. Better still, you can schedule each of your group announcements.
