How to Post in Groups

Use your approved listing URL

Once your business listing is approved, use your LocalSpotlight listing URL when posting in participating Facebook groups. You can find the URL in your approval email and in the Your URLs section of your Business Dashboard.

Friday advertising posts

  • Include your approved LocalSpotlight listing URL in the Facebook post.
  • Add your advert text, images, offers, prices, event dates, or temporary details in the Facebook post itself.
  • Keep your LocalSpotlight listing updated so it does not become stale.
  • If the approved listing URL is missing, the group post may be declined.

Follow group rules

Each group may have its own rules and moderation process. A LocalSpotlight listing URL helps show that your business has a reviewed listing, but it does not guarantee that a post will be accepted by every group.

Future paid options

Paid posting, magazine advertising, multi-group promotion, and related services may be added later. Use the Express Interest section of your dashboard if you want to hear about these options when they become available.
