Boosted posts are ads you create from posts on your Facebook Page. Boosting a post may help you get more people to react, share, and comment on it, and they can also help you to send people to a landing page.
Before creating an ad using an existing post, make sure that the post you want to use has a link in the description. Our Auto Posting Tool includes a link in the post, so you can use these posts to create ads. Read more about our Auto Posting Tool here.
