  I don’t want all my friends on Facebook to read blog. If I share everyone can see. Can I limit who I share with?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You can create groups in Facebook and share your blog to only a specific group.

  When you set up Publicize to FB, it will ask you with whom you want to share your blog posts. https://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#facebook-profiles-pages

  If you set up a specific group on FB to share your posts before you set up Publicize, you can select that group during set up.

  Thanks for the help! Can people who are not my friend on FB ask to join the group?

  Nope. Even your friends won’t be aware that you put them in a certain group, let alone non-friends :)

  Non-friends can only send you a friend request. It is up to you to decide which group to put them into, if at all you choose to accept their request.
