What To Pin To The Top Of Your Facebook Timeline
One of the smartest features of timeline for brands is the ability to pin posts to the page. The feature is so helpful that it might seem like a no-brainer to decide what to pin. But the catch is, you can only pin one thing at a time. Whatever you most recently pinned shows up at the top of the page, and the rest goes into a hybrid of chronological order with some prioritization of the most engaging posts (of course, things you hide or delete don’t show up). Here’s a list of things you might want to pin to the top of your timeline page on Facebook. What do people encountering your brand for the very first time need to know? Alternatively, create an image or infographic and include in writing the information you want to get across. If your page represents a national or multinational brand, the about section doesn’t necessarily include your office locations, so you might want to include this in the “need to know” post. Are your servers down? Highlight a photo of your billboard.

Facebook to increase profile picture size for pages
Facebook to increase profile picture size for pages Facebook will increase the size of profile pictures on all business and fan pages on Thursday, according to an email the company sent to page owners. The new profile picture will appear as 160×160 pixels and will sit 23 pixels from the left and 210 pixels from the top of the page. This will not affect pages that use distinct images for their profile picture and cover photo, but pages that incorporate the profile picture into the cover photo — as seen in the example below — should be aware that the change could affect their designs.

Since starting the edible wall project, Ritz has seen his kids’ attendance jump from 43 to 90 percent. “I’m putting the bake sale to shame,” says Ritz, explaining that more projects are in the works for his students, including growing pumpkin patches in New York City subways and planting mini farms along major city roads.
