  Hi Jennifer,

  The WordPress.com Publicize connection with Facebook is meant to publish on your timeline or a page’s timeline. However, we don’t have control over publishing on your News feed. Facebook uses their own algorithm to determine that. I did a quick search and found this support guide that may help in understanding how they choose what ends up on the News feed:

  If you have any further questions, it might be best to contact Facebook for more details.

  I’m sorry I couldn’t be of more help!
