How to Mention a User or Page in Your Social Message

Mention Facebook pages, Linkedin pages & profiles, Instagram accounts, Mastodon users, Threads accounts, and Twitter accounts in your social posts. Your message may appear on their timeline and it's possible they could be notified when your message is published. Other people reading your message can click on the hyperlink and be taken to that social account too.

How to Mention Another User or Page

First, you need to create a social message. After you select your social profile, start to write your message.

Facebook Pages

Type @ followed by the Facebook page name exactly as it shows on the social account (including spaces). A list of results will populate without page icons. Select the page name from the list and you’ll see it turn blue.

Linkedin Pages

Type @ followed by the name of the company's LinkedIn page name exactly as it shows in the LinkedIn page URL (including dashes). Select the name when it appears.

LinkedIn Profiles

If a personal LinkedIn profile follows your LinkedIn company page and has their profile language set to English, you can mention the profile when posting from your company page. Type @ followed by the LinkedIn personal profile name, then select the name when it appears.

Instagram Accounts

Type @ followed by the Instagram account name exactly as it shows on the social account (including spaces). There will be no list of results.

Threads Accounts

Type @ followed by the Threads account name exactly as it shows on the social account (including spaces). There will be no list of results.

Twitter Accounts

Type @ followed by the Twitter account name exactly as it shows on the social account (including spaces). A list of results will populate along with page icons. Select the page name from the list and you'll see it turn blue.

Mastodon Accounts
