Add an MP3 to Facebook with SoundCloud

The first method assumes you have a Facebook account. You'll also need to create a SoundCloud account to do it this way, but it's a very neat and tidy way to share MP3's on Facebook.

Open the web browser of your choice. The most updated is recommended.
2
Go to website. Type or copy and paste the following link into your address bar: https://www.facebook.com/appcenter/soundcloud

Sign up for SoundCloud. At the top left of the page, you will see an orange button labeled “Sign up for SoundCloud”; click that button.
- This should open a pop-up window. If it does not, please ensure your pop-up blocker off temporarily.
4
Sign in with Facebook. On the pop-up window, press the button at the top left of the page labeled “Sign in with Facebook.”
- On the next window, press the button at the bottom of the page that is labeled “Okay.”

Check “Agree to the Terms,” and then push “Sign up.” Agreeing to the SoundCloud terms of service is required for registration.
- Now a page will appear that asks you about your musical preference. Follow the directions provided, then press the button “X” that is hidden at the top right of the page.

Search for a song of your choice.

Share. After choosing a song, underneath the song title, there is an icon that allows you to share to Facebook. Hover your mouse pointer over the buttons.

You can't upload an MP3 file to Facebook, you can only share them. You copy the link from any website and paste it on Facebook.
