How to Make Polls on Facebook?
The days of creating a Facebook poll from your Newsfeed or timeline are long gone. The only option to distribute a poll right now is through a Facebook Group, a story, an event page, or Messenger.
Polls in Facebook Groups
Facebook Groups are one of the most effective marketing strategies available on the social media platform. You can use it to build a community and increase customer involvement.
While Business Pages struggle to reach more than 5% of their audience organically, Facebook Groups are a different story. Because the algorithm prioritizes group posts to newsfeeds, you'll get a lot more organic reach without having to pay for ads.
With a real profile and company page example, we explain the procedures to establish a poll within your group below.
Step 1: Find a group to join.
Go to your Facebook Newsfeed on your desktop or mobile device, click the "Groups" icon on the left-hand side menu, and select the group for your poll.
Step 2: Write a Blog Post
To make a post, go to the "What's on your mind" section. Navigate to the "Add to your post" portion of the pop-up and click the three dots to view more options.
Step 3: Make a poll on Facebook.
A new "Add to your post" screen with numerous options will appear. Choose "Poll" from the drop-down menu. It'll return you to the "Create post" pop-up, where you can begin adding poll options in the "Write something" box.
Step 4: Make Your Facebook Poll Public
When you've finished adding all of your options, select "Poll Options." You can choose whether or not people can add alternatives and whether or not they can vote for several options.
Click "Post" when you're finished.
Polls on Facebook Stories
Creating a poll is an invaluable (and entertaining!) method to communicate with your audience, with 250 million people using Stories every day and premium real estate on users' News Feeds.
Let's have a look at how it's done.
Step 1: On your smartphone, open the Facebook app.
Tap the "Hamburger" icon on the left-hand side of the screen to get to your Facebook Page. You can find your page by scrolling down and hitting the "Pages" button, or by scrolling down and tapping the "Shortcuts" button.
Step 2: Make a brand-new story
Select "Create a Story" from the dropdown list by tapping on the blue circle with the + symbol around your profile photo.
Step 3: Make a poll on Facebook.
Swipe to the left until the "Poll" card appears. Make your question and the "Yes" and "No" options your own.
Upload a photo from your camera roll or choose a color gradient background.
Tap the "Share Now" button after you're finished.
Your followers will see the proportion of people who voted for whatever choice, but only you will be able to see how many people voted for each option and how they voted.
