How to add a Call to Action button
By adding Call-to-Action (CTA) buttons to your links, you will increase your click-through rate and overall engagement.
CTA buttons work for links posts for Facebook Pages and Google Business Profiles.
When creating the same post for both Facebook and Google My Business at the same time, you can't add a CTA button. Try customizing the posts and then adding respective buttons.
Facebook does not let you add CTA buttons to links from their website unless you create an ad. You can only add them using Publer.
You cannot add a CTA button to posts shared in Facebook Groups or in Facebook Personal Profiles.
Go to the Create page and select a Facebook account.
Then, attach the desired link (paste it in the composer).
After that, you will be able to add the Call to Action button.
You will be able to select from any of the suggested CTA buttons. By default the 'No Button' option is selected.
