Add Location Tags to Your Social Media Posts

Location tagging helps parents discover your childcare center when they search for local options on social media. When you tag your location, your posts show up in location-based searches and can significantly boost your visibility in your community.

Why Location Tags Matter for Your Center

Location tags increase your chances of being discovered by local families. When parents search for childcare in your area or click on a location tag from another post, your tagged content appears in their results.

This helps you:

  • Reach more families in your neighborhood
  • Improve engagement with local parents
  • Boost your local SEO visibility
  • Connect with families actively searching for care in your area

  1. Go to Marketing > Social Planner
  2. Click Create New Post
  3. Select the social media platforms where you want to post (Facebook and Instagram support location tagging)
  4. Add your content, images, and other post settings
  5. Look for the Location Tagging option
  6. Search for and select your childcare center's location

Pro Tip: Use your exact business address as the location tag. This helps parents find your center and improves your visibility in local searches.

First-Time Setup

The first time you add a location tag, you may need to re-authenticate your Facebook or Instagram account to grant location tagging permissions. Just follow the prompts to connect your accounts with the additional permissions.
