How to Create a Post on nextdoor the Social Network 2018
Here's how to publish a post on next-door. You're gonna log into your personal account, and just like on Facebook and many of the other social channels, you have the ability to post a message, event pull or urgent alert.
We're going to click here and then what we're able to do is say, do we want to post just a regular message? Are we going to create an event? Remember this is a neighborhood, maybe we're having a neighborhood block party or some kind of special event, we want people to be able to come. We can post it here, we're able to choose to create a poll and ask people's opinion. Maybe we're going to host a neighborhood block party, and we want to run a poll asking people where which part would be the best location, or which date would be best for them, something like that.
Here we're able to post an urgent alert. This is fantastic for something like a lost pet, we had something here in Vegas, I live up in Summery with The Lori Baleen Real Estate Team in Vegas, and we had a hundred days with no rain, so the Coyotes were coming down off the mountain and were up here in our neighborhood, so people are using these types of urgent alerts to let everybody know where the Coyotes were, and to bring our pets in, but only for lost pets, this is a really popular section, and you'll notice here that it says everyone in the vistas will immediately receive this alert via email or SMS text message, so can you imagine if you had a lost child or something, how quick this can get out and how imperative that is. So don't use this urgent alert for anything other than something that is seriously urgent and you want everybody notified immediately.
Here if we're going to make a regular post were able to choose a category, and here are some of the categories recommendations, so we could be giving a review on a local business, we can choose for sale or free items. I've got this bookcase, you anybody can come get it a document, so maybe we're going to give a PDF.
We've created a guide of all of the local pediatricians and doctors or nail salons or something we want everybody to have it. We could include down in documents, crime and safety, we see a lot of that, that's kind of like the neighborhood watch stuff lost and found, so this could be your bike was stolen, you found a phone at the park, that nothing urgent but you still want to post there, and then you have general, and here you can choose the neighbors, and so in my case, I've got where I live directly and then I've got nearby neighborhoods, and you can click customize and you can choose only to show it to particular neighborhoods right around you. This is a really cool feature and then we also have the ability to create a message.
Here you can add a photo, so I was recently looking for a pet sitter and choose cattery, general I chose neighborhoods just within like a mile, I think the subject was cat sitter, and then I posted my request, and then here under add photo, I posted a picture of my cat and myself, so this is how you create a post on next-door, the social network.
