How to Post on a Facebook Page as Yourself

In addition to the list of features I outlined in Pros and Cons of Facebook's Page Updates, Facebook has added another feature to the new Pages area.

As a Page admin, you previously could not post, comment, etc. on the Page you admin AND have that message appear from your personal account. Messages were always posted as the Page alias.

Not anymore...

Facebook now allows you to toggle between posting as the Page and posting as yourself on a Page you admin. To post as yourself:
  1. Visit the Page you admin
  2. Click the "Edit Page" button in the top right
  3. Find "Your Settings" in the sub-navigation in the left column (its the first option)
  4. Uncheck the "Posting Preferences" box
When you want to switch back to posting as the Page, just complete steps 1-3 and recheck the "Posting Preferences" box.

Its easy to do but a confusing topic to put into words so hopefully this all makes sense! If not, feel free to post any questions on cascade's Facebook page.
