Let’s say you go to someone else’s Facebook Page Wall and you see something you want to share on your own FB Business Page. Normally when you click on the “Share” link that item will be shared (posted) to your personal profile. But is there a way to have it posted on your Business Page?
Yes, there is. You just need to “Use Facebook as” your the Business Page you want the post to appear on. Here’s how…
Step 1 – Click on the downward pointing wedge at the very top right of your profile page. You should see something like below (with a list of the FB pages you are the admin of):
Select the page you want the post to appear on.
Step 2 – Click on the “Share” link below the post you want to re-post (share):
Step 3 – Add your own comment or description:
Then click the “Share” button.
Step 4 – Now when you go to your target page – the one you are “using Facebook as”, you should see the shared post:
That’s it!

What if you are on youtube or twitter. How can you share something from one of these sites to your business page on facebook?
Hi Linda. To share a Youtube video, copy the specific address from the URL address box of your browser, then click on the “Link” button on your FB Page and paste the Youtube address there. Add a comment and you’re good to go.
With Twitter I don’t think there is anything equivalent to this. You can paste links embedded within a specific tweet into the “link” box of your FB Page, but as far as I know, not the tweet itself. I am told that Tweetdeck allows you to “share” specific tweets with your FB Page. – Rick
