How to Create a Poll on Facebook (in Pages, Groups, and Stories)
Facebook allows you to post polls to help you collect opinions from your Pages, Groups, and Stories’ followers. It’s easy to add a poll with your specific question to any of your Facebook properties.
In this guide, we’ll show you how to create a poll on Facebook—specifically for posts on Pages, in Groups, and on your Stories.
How to Create a Poll on a Facebook Page
Facebook supports adding a poll to your Facebook Page, and this way you can collect responses from the people who follow it.
To create a poll on your page from Facebook’s desktop site:
- Access your Facebook Page in your preferred browser.
- When the page opens, clickPublishing Tools in the left sidebar.
- ClickCreate Post at the top of the screen. This will compose the new post where you’ll add a poll.
