11. Audience Selector
Public- Anyone can see these. These are also the updates that your subscribers will see in
their feeds.
Friends - Only your friends can see these updates.
Friends except Acquaintances - Facebook determines who you associated with the least and
calls these people “Acquaintances”. Only the people you interact with most will see these
updates.
Custom - Allows you to post only to specific people, exclude certain people or so no one can
see your post.

24. Tagging 101
Here I have tagged Wember Inc in my message so
that this message not only shows up on my wall but
also to the Wember Inc. Wall. Also the tag becomes a
link to that page’s wall.
Steps:
1.Your PAGE must like the page you wish to tag prior to doing a tag.
2.Start typing your message and when you want to tag you use the “@”
sign. So if you wanted to tag Stellar247 you would type @stellar247.
3.Once you start typing the @username the page you wish to tag will
show up in the drop down menu. Select the page you want to tag.
4.Continue sharing your message as you normally would.
