Many businesses find it hard to create engaging Facebook posts for their Facebook community . One technique that we find useful is asking questions. Questions are a great way to increase engagement on Facebook.
If you don’t offer thought provoking opportunities to engage with your fans on facebook, it makes it easier for readers to just skim, read, and move on without responding to your posts.
But when you include a question in your post, it is more likely for users to pause and think before moving on. It will also greatly increase the likelihood of your fans sharing their thoughts and then their friends clicking the like button.
Here is a list of “question types” that could help you when trying to create a more engaging Facebook post strategy.
| Direct | When you stay on the Outer Banks, would you prefer a hotel or a rental home? |
| Edgy | What do you think of Instagram’s new Terms of Service in regards to your photos? |

| Experience | What is your favorite OBX Restaurant? |
