Improving Facebook

Personal

June 19, 2014

Now, I know what you are all thinking from reading todays blog title… that this doesn’t seem like a typical blog post, and that’s because you would be right. It isn’t. There’s nothing here today about adorable babies, beautiful families, or my personal life, don’t worry that’s coming tomorrow! Today I’m talking about Facebook, and all the changes (positive and negative) that it has made and continues to make!

Ever wonder why you see some posts and not others on Facebook?! Don’t worry, you are not alone!
You see, Facebook has way too much content. The average user has 1500+ posts that they are supposed to view each day and so Facebook decides to curate that content. It’s not ideal but it makes sense that this would happen… and like any great business, they are handling it in a way that will make them money. Now this isn’t just for small business owners with a fan-page, this is for ANYONE!
If you enjoy Sarah E Photography’s images, blog posts, personal posts, etc, then this applies to you. You see, you “like” things on Facebook because you enjoy them! If you have a minimal number of friends and like a small number of pages, our visibility will increase. However, if you’re like me and have “liked” a ton of other pages, the content gets lost in the great abyss of Facebook!

So! How do we fix this!? … MAKE SURE YOU ARE SET TO RECEIVE OUR NOTIFICATIONS! I love this feature about Facebook! On the business page under the “Liked” tab you simply have to click “Get Notifications!” It’s as easy as that, and you’ll never miss a post again!
(I’ve even included a screen shot to help you further!)

Hopefully this helped! I know it has helped me tremendously! I actually see what I want to on Facebook now! Not what Facebook thinks I want to see!

And don’t forget the #saraheturnsone Birthday Giveaway is on until Wednesday June 25th!
