How to post multiple photos on Facebook with SocialBee

If you regularly manage content for a brand or business, using a dedicated Facebook social media management tool like SocialBee can save you time and help you stay consistent. Instead of relying on Facebook’s native scheduler (which only lets you plan posts for one page at a time and offers limited editing options), SocialBee gives you full control over your content calendar, visuals, and performance tracking across multiple profiles.

SocialBee's main app dashboard

With SocialBee, you can create, schedule, and post multiple photos (or even videos) on your Facebook page, profile, or group, all from one dashboard.

Here are the steps you need to follow to share multiple posts on Facebook with SocialBee:

  • Click Add Post in your SocialBee dashboard to open the Post Editor.
  • Select where you want to post: choose your Facebook page, group, or any other connected social profile. You can share to multiple platforms at once if you’d like.
  • Add your post content. Write your caption, then upload multiple photos or videos from your computer. You can use the Canva integration to design a new collage or visual layout before uploading. You can also search for free visuals directly from Unsplash or add animated GIFs using the GIPHY integration.
  • Enhance your post accessibility and visuals:
    • Add alt text for your images.
    • Choose or upload a thumbnail for your videos.
  • Use AI to speed things up:
    • Generate captions and image suggestions with SocialBee’s AI generator.
    • Instantly customize your post for each platform or manually adjust the text, emojis, or hashtags.
  • Optimize your hashtags:
    • Use the built-in hashtag generator to get relevant suggestions.
    • Save and reuse them through your hashtag collections.
  • Once your media is added, you can edit, crop, reorder, or tag people and pages.
  • In the “When to post” section, click Add a posting time. Choose the date and time when you want your post to go live. You can also add multiple posting times to reshare the same post later for better visibility.
  • Assign your post to a specific category for easier tracking and content balance.
  • Save your post as Approved or as a Draft so team members can review and provide feedback before publishing.
  • Use SocialBee’s suggested best posting times to help you schedule when your audience is most active.
  • When everything looks good, click Save and set your post’s status to Approved so SocialBee can publish it automatically.
  • You can also choose to share your post instantly, schedule it for a specific time, requeue it, or set it to expire after a campaign ends.
  • You can always view, edit, or remove scheduled posts later from your calendar view if you need to make updates.
