Posting Pictures on Facebook

Ahoy Adventurists!

We received an e-mail this morning from one of our fabulous clients asking how to upload photos onto our Facebook Fan page. I logged onto my Facebook account and found that the 'upload photo' option definitely isn't obvious. I think a lot of people don't upload their travel pictures because of this, so I thought I'd shed a bit of light on the matter:

Normally when you upload a photo to your Facebook profile, you click on the Photos tab and either create an album or upload a photo to an existing album.

There is no 'upload' option in the Photos tab of a Facebook Fan page. Fans aren't allowed to upload entire albums (this is all Facebook - if we could, we'd allow easy album uploads).

Instead, to upload an individual picture you have to click on the picture icon underneath the text box where you can write a message on the Fan page wall (see picture below). Once you've uploaded your picture, click 'Share' to post it onto the Fan page. It will automatically appear in the Fan Photos album.

We hope to see more of your travel photos on the BikeHike Adventures Fan page! :)
