Facebook News: Again

Facebook is giving its users more control over the posts and people they see most in their news feeds. On Friday, Facebook announced new filters in Settings that show the people, pages and groups an individual follows that posted the most in the past week, along with a summary.

Other changes: If you "unfollow" someone in the heat of the moment and decide you miss their content, you now can bring up the list of recently un-followed people and add them back into your feed.

 

There are also new controls so users can opt to see fewer posts from a person or a page (instead of just un-following them outright).

 

What does this mean for businesses posting to Facebook? 

  1. Consider increasing your posts to get your business into the "posts the most" category.
  2. f individual users think you are posting too often, they can now simply reduce the number of posts they see rather than un-like your page altogether.
  3. Make sure you are posting content of interest to your target audience, as they'll likely be thinking more critically about who they do and don't want in their feed.
  4. Ask a question, raise an issue, use humor to get engagement, as engagement continues to be the best way to raise Facebook visibility.
