• Extraversion was related to Facebook activity level; was not related to Facebook time.

• Personality characteristics predict different kinds of online self-presentation.

• Greater neuroticism predicted greater online presentation of the ideal and false self.

• Lower extraversion predicted greater self-exploratory online presentation.
