There is no option to set Search Engine Friendly URLs. And In my opinion posting an image is better because you can post image, description and link too whereas in status posting you can post only text and link.

Also Facebook Image URL like this "?fbid=526861387402578" only.

Are you trying to get post engagement or web traffic? Post pictures for engagement and post direct links with the shared content under them for getting web traffic.

It will really depend upon your purpose, but if it is to generate traffic, I'd go for banwork's suggestion. It would really be hard to use just images if you are aiming for traffic, but you can try and be more innovative to attract interaction on your page for your activity stats to get a boost.

>> post engagement or web traffic

- traffic from within FB and traffic from outside FB ?
- better engagement in turn getting better rank ? more traffic within FB ?

Photos get more engagement on Facebook so I typically post photos over text.

It is best to post both text and links keeps it exciting for the reader to read.

Better engagement drives more traffic and that is what you should be aiming for. But just like what most are saying, you can just do both. I guess, you just need to be watchful of the links that you will be posting. Long URLs are just too painful for every user's eye.

Post a text that way its easier and quicker if you are doing multiple groups or texts.

If you use bitly for url shortner you have a feature to optimize a particular URL.

In my opinion, we should upload images with text wherein we can describes our thought. This is the good way to convince our friends...

what do you mean ?

Just be more creative in creating images with texts. If you had making videos as an option for this, I would definitely go for it because, as you might have already noticed, videos can be even more viral than images. But since that is not the case, just maximize your capability in making compelling images.

I do both, but more images with a brief description and link.

That said, if you post a link (status update), be sure to use a 560x292 image because it's bigger and will get the attention like an image. I've had decent engagement from links with the larger images plus traffic.

Another tip is planning for any post promotion. By far the best traffic generation I've had is doing a link (status update) with 560x292 image. I put a catchy title in the image (but ensure the text doesn't take up more than 20% of the image).

I then pay to promote this post using targeting features. This works great for tons of traffic for not much CPC if you create a great image. I usually customize my images with arrows and other eye-catching elements.

The 560x292 image have to be in the url page already ?
or how to post a Status (include link + an image) ?

i mean is it possible to attach an image in my text post ?

Do both. You will find you get a better response if you use both... people out there don't want the same boring content give them a reason to open your piece and read it.

Post text AS an image (with a relevant picture)
