A 400-character caption on Facebook Pages
Facebook Pages shows about the first 480 characters before "…more", so -80 of the 400 are hidden until someone taps. Put the hook in those first 480.
Facebook Pages bio generator
This Facebook bio generator turns a role or niche and a value-proposition keyword into a set of ready-to-edit Facebook bio suggestions — built from Facebook-specific templates, not AI-written. A Facebook Page’s short description is limited to 100 characters, per Meta’s Graph API reference for the Page about field (the Description setting in Edit Page Info). The suggestions are written like a short About blurb — one descriptive sentence rather than a punchy tagline. Pick one, tweak the wording to sound like you, and paste it into your profile.

How long can a Facebook Pages bio be?
100 characters for a Page’s short description. Meta’s Graph API reference documents it as the Page’s about field, the Description setting in Edit Page Info, with a limit of 100 characters. Longer detail, such as opening hours, history or what you sell, belongs in the Page’s additional information instead.
| Field | Limit | Where it shows |
|---|---|---|
| Description (about) | 100 characters | The short text that introduces the Page |
| Additional information | No limit stated by Meta | The longer detail in the Page’s About section |
| Contact and website | Separate fields | Add the link there rather than in the description |
What should a Facebook Pages bio say?
Who you are and what people get, in one sentence: the business or role, the one thing you are known for, and, for a local business, the place. Put the words people would search for first, keep the link in the website field, and use the same wording you use on your other profiles so the Page is easy to recognise. For other networks, the general bio generator writes platform-neutral options.
How do you use the Facebook bio generator?
- Type your role or niche. Enter a short phrase for what you do — a job title, a niche or a business type all work.
- Type your value proposition. Enter the one thing you want a reader to know you help with or focus on.
- Review the suggested bios. Each suggestion applies your role and value proposition to a different Facebook-style bio template.
- Copy one you like. Click a suggestion to copy it, then edit it to sound like you before you publish it.
- Paste it into your Facebook profile. Open your Facebook profile’s edit view and paste the bio into the field it belongs in.

| Text-only posts | Allowed |
| Links in the text | A pasted URL shows a link-preview card |

Good to know
- Facebook can only post to Pages you administer — not to a personal profile/timeline.
- Facebook Reels must be a single vertical (9:16) video, roughly 3–90 seconds long.
- Facebook does not support polls via the API.
- You cannot mix photos and video in one Facebook feed post — a video must be the only media item.
- Facebook posts have no separate title field.
What does it look like in practice?
From "family-run bakery" to a set of Facebook bio options
Typing "family-run bakery" as the role and "fresh sourdough baked daily" as the value proposition fills all 6 templates below, giving 6 ready-to-edit Facebook bio options at once.
Facebook’s real bio length
A Facebook Page’s short description is limited to 100 characters, per Meta’s Graph API reference for the Page about field (the Description setting in Edit Page Info). That is the constraint every suggestion on this page is written to fit inside.
What should you do after writing your Facebook Pages bio?
A good description brings people to the Page; regular posts give them a reason to follow it. SkedCast schedules posts, photos, videos and Reels to the Facebook Pages you manage, one at a time or in bulk, and hosts a link in bio page you can put in the Page’s website field. Build that page with the free link in bio generator, and see the Facebook Pages scheduler for every posting option.
