You’re not imagining it. Facebook page posts that used to pull clicks and shares can now land with a thud: low reach, quiet comments, and a traffic graph that looks like it fell asleep.
A big part of the frustration is simple: your best “send them to my site” posts (link posts) are shown less than posts that keep people inside Facebook. On top of that, Meta has been testing a new limit that affects how often some Pages and pro accounts can publish link posts, and it changes how you plan your month.
Here’s what you’ll get: a clear answer to who sees your posts now, what the link limit test means in plain English, and what to do next so you don’t spend your week posting for pennies.

Key Takeaways
- Facebook Page Posts are experiencing lower reach due to changes in Meta’s algorithm that favor in-app engagement over link sharing.
- Meta is testing a limit of two link posts per month for some accounts, significantly impacting posting strategies.
- To improve visibility, focus on creating engaging content, such as photos and Reels, and use link posts strategically within planned campaigns.
- Engage your audience with conversation starters and recycle successful content to maintain reach and post clicks.
- Audit past posts and prioritize your two link posts while committing to a week of varied engaging content.
Who Actually Sees Your Facebook Page Posts In 2026
In 2026, most distribution still works like a neighborhood bulletin board; your posts go to people who already “know you” first. That means followers and past engagers get the first shot at seeing your updates, while light discovery (non-followers) is a smaller slice unless something starts performing fast.
If you run a local business Page, your post is most likely to appear for regular customers who’ve reacted before, clicked your Page, messaged you, or saved a post. If you’re a creator, you can still get discovery, but it usually comes from video-first surfaces like Reels and recommendations, not from a standard link post.
This is why your old “new blog post” pattern can feel broken. Benchmarks across social platforms also show that organic reach is tight, and Facebook is no longer the easy referral machine it once was.
For a broader view of why organic reach has dropped and what signals still help, see Sprout Social’s organic reach overview.
Why followers see more than non-followers (and why that still feels low)
Most Pages get the bulk of their reach from people who already follow them, and even then, not every follower sees every post. Facebook is sorting each person’s feed based on what they tend to watch, comment on, and ignore.
So even if you have 5,000 followers, your post may only be seen by a small portion at first. If early engagement is weak, distribution often stalls.
Link posts make that harder. They’re a tiny slice of what most people consume in the feed compared to photos, Reels, and friend updates. When your post asks someone to leave Facebook, it has to work harder to earn placement.
What the algorithm pushes instead of links: Reels, photos, and posts that keep people on Facebook
Facebook wants people to stay put, watch, react, and talk. So it tends to favor content that creates in-app activity, especially short videos and strong visuals.
A few signals that often help your post travel farther:
- Watch time: People stop and watch, not just scroll past.
- Comments: Real replies and back-and-forth, not one-word drive-bys.
- Shares and saves: A sign your post felt useful or worth revisiting.
- Recent interest: What someone has interacted with today matters a lot.
A link post can stop the scroll in the wrong way. It feels like an exit sign, and the platform treats it that way. That doesn’t mean you can’t get clicks anymore.
➡️ It means you need to earn attention first, then hand people the link when they’re ready.
Meta is testing a 2 Link Posts-per-month cap. Here is what it means for your page
If you’ve seen a warning or notification about link posting limits, you’re not alone. Meta has been testing a cap that restricts some Pages and professional profiles to two link posts per month unless they subscribe to Meta Verified.
Reports of these notifications began appearing around December 2025, and it appears to be a test rather than a universal rule.
One key detail in reporting is that publishers have reportedly not been included in this test, which matters if you’re a media outlet versus a small business, blogger, or service provider.
The Meta Verified angle is where it gets spicy. If you’re prompted to subscribe, it can feel like your traffic is behind a paywall. In the US, Meta Verified typically starts at around $15 per month (pricing can vary by account and plan), and it includes a verification badge along with additional support and protection features.
What counts as a link post, what may not, and the common loopholes people try to use
A “link post” is typically a main feed post that includes an external URL (so it generates a preview card or a clickable link).
What some people try instead:
- Putting the link in the first comment and keeping the main post link-free.
- Publishing a Reel, photo, or text post and sending people to “link in comments.”
- Using a pinned post, Page button, or featured section as the “always available” link spot.
Treat these as experiments, not permanent hacks. Workarounds can change without notice, and what works for one Page might flop for another.
➡️ Track reach, clicks, and saves so you’re making choices based on results, not rumor.
Do you need Meta Verified just to share your blog or offer now?
You don’t want to pay out of frustration. You want to pay only if the math works.
Run a quick gut-check:
- How many links do you post monthly? If you post 10 link posts a month and you’re capped at two, your workflow has to change, paid or not.
- How much traffic does Facebook still send you? If Facebook is now a small slice of your site visits, a subscription may not pay for itself.
- Do the badge and support perks matter? If you’ve dealt with impersonation, account access issues, or constant moderation headaches, the non-traffic perks may be the real value.
If you’re not capped (or you barely post links anyway), you can usually get better wins by adjusting your content mix first.
How to get more reach and clicks from Facebook Page posts without wasting your week
You can still win on Facebook, but you’ll do it by treating links like a planned event, not your default post type. The goal is to build attention inside Facebook, then convert that attention into clicks in fewer, smarter moments.
Start by tightening the basics. Use one clear topic per post, post when your audience is active, and reply to comments like you’re hosting a room, not hanging a flyer.
Now for tactics that don’t eat your calendar.
- Write “comment-bait” the right way. Ask a real question that helps you learn about your customers (example: “Which one’s harder for you right now, time or budget?”). Then respond to every thoughtful answer.
- Recycle what already worked. Turn last month’s best tip into a photo post, then a short Reel, then a text post that tells a quick story about a customer result.
- Use photos more often. A simple, real photo from your business (team, product, behind-the-scenes) often beats a polished graphic because it feels human.
- Keep posts snack-sized. One idea, one takeaway, one next step. If you need a full explanation, that’s your blog, not your caption.
- Pin one “main link” post. Even if you only publish two link posts a month, a pinned post can act like a front door for new visitors who finally click through to your Page.
- Boost only what earns it. If a post gets comments and shares quickly, a small boost can extend momentum. Boosting a dead link post rarely fixes the root problem.
Turn two link posts into a mini campaign that earns clicks over time
If you’re limited to two link posts per month (or you just want to post fewer links), treat those two posts like your headline acts.
Pick your best offer and your best “evergreen” content, like a lead magnet, a key service page, or a blog post that answers a high-intent question. Write the link post with a strong hook, a short benefit, and a clear reason to click.
Then support it with link-free posts for the next 7 to 10 days: a quick tip, a short video demo, a customer story, or a before-and-after. Each one points back to the main idea, and if it still works for your Page, you can say “link in comments” and drop it there.
Use the formats Facebook is boosting, then place the link where it hurts less
A simple weekly mix keeps you consistent without feeling chained to content:
- 1 to 2 Reels per week (simple phone video is fine).
- 1 photo or carousel-style post.
- 1 conversation starter post that invites comments.
For links, test placements that feel more natural: first comment, your Page action button, a pinned post, or your About section. Different audiences click in different spots.
➡️ Your job is to test for two weeks, then keep what performs.
Conclusion: Facebook Page Posts Visibility
If your Facebook page posts feel invisible in 2026, it’s not just you. Fewer people see link-heavy posts; Meta has been testing a two-link posts-per-month cap for some accounts, and the feed continues to reward content that holds attention inside the app.
You can still get reach and clicks, but you’ll do it by posting more photos and Reels, building conversations, and treating links as planned campaigns rather than a daily routine.
Audit your last 30 days of posts, pick your next two link posts on purpose, then commit to one week of Reels or photo posts to rebuild reach. Your traffic won’t come back from posting more; it comes back from posting smarter.

Hi Lisa,
Must say a complete guide to facebook insights. It’s not an easy task for a non technical person to understand facebook insights but you have shared it in simple and easy to understand language. Thanks for sharing.
You are welcome Rahul, it certainly isn’t but with a little explaining it can be understood. Thanks for commenting and have a great rest of the week.
Hi Lisa,
May be your fans using their mobile devices at Church?
Excellent points on recent changes on Facebook. Since couple of months, I’ve noticed the more I engage, the more I find their posts on my newsfeed. I kinda like that algorithm. As I keep company with relatively small number of friends on Facebook, I haven’t had to block anyone or hide their posts though. Yet I don’t like not seeing important updates from the friends even though I don’t engage much.
When it comes to Facebook pages, I rarely like or comment now. But I’ve noticed more stories from the pages that I checked out more (clicked on their links), despite liking or commenting.
Further, if you check out a person or page but yet to friend or like, they seem to add to the friend / page suggestions on Facebook. Did you notice that?
Hmm… Actually, I’m not keeping up with Facebook by sending regular updates, but so far I don’t find a reason to ditch the Facebook page though. It’s interesting that more teens and youngsters come over to my blog via Facebook. Insights doesn’t seem to agree with that though.
Hope you are taking care of yourself there, Lisa. You’re in our thoughts indeed.
You’re never late to reply. Me? Yeah, I’m late to comment here though
Cheers…
Hi Mayura, I had not thought of that possibility. I don’t like missing updates too, it can get frustrating at times.
I have noticed that one, retargeting!
I don’t plan on dropping mine as I want to see what Facebook will do next with the pages. I won’t know unless I have one….
Thanks Mayura, making good use of my tablet now it works well with voice activation. Thanks for coming by and enjoy the rest of your weekend.
Well said. I’ve heard of a number of people who have dropped their pages recently. I haven’t (yet) but I’ve given up beating my head against the wall trying to build engagement. I update the page every day or so but the only reason I’m keeping it for now is that as an author I’m expected to have a page for my platform. I’ve participated a few times in group “blitz” events to build traffic and it works short term, but then it goes right down again and you have to constantly watch for the trouble makers who will try and post affiliate links during the blitz. As far as using my FB profile page – I have since I first joined FB. I’ve never used it for personal communication or images and when people share my blog posts it shows up there, so it’s a natural cross over. I have boosted a few posts, and run a couple of ads but have never felt the ROI was there.
One thing I DO like about Facebook is the groups. Takes awhile to find the right ones, but there’s lots of great engagement and support so I tend to focus most of my energy there.
Hi Marquita, yes the same here I am NOT ready to drop mine but will not go crazy over it either. Who knows when Facebook will make more changes with the pages. I have seen some of those crazy links too in the blitzs. Interesting on the groups , a few others mentioned that as well. I am in a few but I am afraid to get into too many and get overwhelmed. Thanks for coming by and sharing your input Marquita.
Hi Lisa. It’s been a while. A lot of stuff going on here on earth. I use F.B. Purity, which provides more viewing options than FB.
Lauren, what is FB purity? You got my curiosity!!
First of all. A belated sorry and get well soon from your snowmobile accident. My husband had prostate cancer surgery two weeks ago and I wasn’t paying attention online for a week or so. His prognosis is good and he’ll be back at work Monday. He still needs to have his PSA levels tested every 2 weeks. If it’s not 0, he’ll need radiation treatment.
Thank you Lauren – I’m sorry to hear about your husband I hope he will have a full recovery. I will have to check out that link thank you for getting back to me on it.
Welcome to Inspire To Thrive Nestor! Thank you, Oh yes, that good old great content. Doing the FB boosts really made some difference but you would have to budget carefully for them.
Sorry for late reply Nestor, I was in a snowmobile accident last week and broke an arm in 3 places along with 10 ribs.
Welcome to Inspire To Thrive Worli. I would agree – too many promotional posts in our feeds was getting old too fast! I am glad they made some of these changes. It has been interesting to see how some bloggers have changed their posts etc. Thanks for your input!
Wow… this is an excellent post Lisa!
I always figured that Facebook was not showing my posts to my followers, this post just put everything into perspective.
Like you say, we shouldn’t worry to much about Facebook algorithms, we should put more focus on providing great content that our audience wants.
We always have the option of boosting our posts!
Thank you,
– Nestor
Hi Lisa
This is a really great post about Facebook. We hardly see people who is not using facebook. Even school going students have account on facebook. So, Facebook can be never avoided in our promotional strategies. Of course, these facebok insights are of a great help to know about our audience and their activities. I think facebook ads are worth trying but still not ad campaigns are equally benefited by facebook ads. Fashion and accessories ads are of a great sucess campaign and other services its better to go with adwords. Great post indeed
Thank you Vino. Facebook is a place you really can not or should not avoid fully wuth it’s huge audience online. The insights are great and should be viewed regularly to better understand results. Thamks for coming by and commenting Vino.
Hi Lisa,
This is a great post and actually I think it should have been an eBook. Personally, I don’t look into the deeper levels of FB. I didn’t notice that I wasn’t see some posts and I’m glad you pointed it out to me in this post.
I really feel like this posts is a refresher course on Facebook and I appreciate that. I still do not know the initimate details of many thing and I don’t use it for a business page or business. Mainly my personal page and developing relationships like Adrienne, but I don’t have as much engagement. I have to definitely do something different with that.
I need to come back and re-read on the paid advertising. I definitely need more information on this.
Thanks for a great post.
Barbara
Thank you Barbara. That’s something I’m always hearing is,”didnt you see my post on this and that, etc
‘. Many I hadn’t seen in my feed for weeks til I started to comment on theirs. People were disappearing it seemed. Even more so with the business page. Amazing what $5 could do for that.
Glad it was useful for you, sorry for last response but was in snowmobile accident. Have a great rest of the week there Barbara!
Hi Lisa,
Thank you for this post. I maintain a Facebook page and I really don’t understand what Facebook is doing behind the scenes of it. The insights you’ve shared in your posts are really helpful. Thank you.
You are welcome Hiten, glad you found this post helpful. Enjoy the rest of your week!
Hey Lisa,
You know I have to treat my facebook page as i did with twitter to engage more. So as i did with the twitter, I just installed the Pages Manager app on my phone to check it everyday. This push me to pay attention to my page since I’m always checking my phone anyways. I have to do with whatever works.
With engaging on facebook, I’ve gotten better than years past, but I can definitely do better. I usually don’t post anything, but I would comment on other posts as well as like it. But it’s good to know I’m doing what matters more to facebook which is commenting.
I haven’t been checking on insight, but then again I haven’t been going to my page, but I will more often since I just installed the app. This will be a more productive year for me I believe, and facebook will be part of it!
Thanks for sharing these valuable tips and facts Lisa! You have a great weekend!
Hi Sherman, you are welcome. I love the app, makes it easy to check on the run. Insights offer a wealth of info so I do hope you start to use
them. Sorry for late response but been dealing with back to back snowstorms in the East here. Have a great rest of the week.
Hi Lisa,
What a great post. It helped me understand some things a bit better. Facebook really drives me crazy but at the same time, it is where so much of my engaging goes on for me. I know others have been talking about dropping facebook pages but i just cant do it. I put a lot of work into building the page and the thought of losing those followers gets to me. What if I dropped it and then facebook changes again? Because you know they will, right?
I do like what you shared about how to get rid of your old groups you don’t use anymore. I actually just did some of that last week. I suppose I could go through the likes as well on my personal page. Thanks for sharing such helpful tips. You rock Lisa.
Irish
Hi Irish, thank you. Me too, I am not dropping mine as things may change again as you believe too.
We just have to be ready to go along with all the changes, be aware and adjust. Thanks for coming by and you are welcome. Enjoy the rest of your week.
Hi Lisa,
Interesting post.
Facebook has changed a lot and I am not into it now because of it’s algorithm. I am not against ads on facebook, but if my normal posts needs to be promoted to be seen by my fans then I am not going to do that.
Anyway, it is how everything is. Uncertain, we need to accept and change our way of working
For me, I prefer linkedin and twitter over facebook.
Take care Lisa.
Hi Rohan, I too prefer Twitter over Facebook but I will not leave Facebook either. Facebook has the largest amount of users. (Even though we cannot reach them all) it will be interesting to see what other changes will come about in 2015.
Thanks for taking the time to comment here and have a great day!
Hi Rohan, I prefer Twitter as well over Facebook. I will not quit Facebook as things may change again. Thanks for coming by and taking the time to comment. Enjoy the rest of the week!
Hi Bren, good to know – thanks for sharing that one. That would be cool, thank you and I will join. I just dropped a bunch of other groups so that will help too.
I have to admit that I didn’t have a clue how to get to any of that stuff… well, that’s not quite accurate. Other than Insights, which I hadn’t seen in way over a year, I didn’t even know the other stuff existed. So I just trooped over there, found all these things, made some changes, and we’ll see what happens.
Well, other than my business Facebook page. It’s showing reach of less than 10 people for each thing I post, which is disappointing. The one post I paid for as an experiment said it reached about 195 people, but not a single person commented on it or liked it, which made me wonder what “reach” actually means.
Oh well…
Hi Mitch. I’m glad you learned a few new things from this post. I’ll be curious to know how those changes work out for you too Mitch. Mine too on the business page unless I promote the posts for $5. Excellent point, I got hundreds of reach but a handful of comments. I wonder if you divide those up to get an “actual” reach? Something else to research, thanks for making me think even more Mitch. I hope you have a great Sunday! Welcome to February as well!
Hi Lisa,
Happy New Year!
The explanations here are illuminating and I must say I learnt a thing or two…blocking off some nasty ads is something (for instance) which I never gave a thought to.
About my business page, I’m most certainly going to keep it. This is because my audience hangs on FB more than all the other social networks combined. In addition, I get really cool results when I boost a post with as little as $5. So, in essence, I’ll not be spending too much time with the page – but will most certainly be using it for promotional content – on a frequent basis.
Do make the day great!
Always,
Akaahan Terungwa
Hi Akaahan, thank you and Happy New Year to you too. I can’t believe we are starting February already! Oh yes, I love that feature to block off some ads. Yes, if you can boost for $5 it will and does make a difference. Thanks for coming by and for sharing your insights on this Facebook post. I hope your Sunday is going well there.
Excellent points you raised in this post Lisa. Some details I never realized. That shows you have really been keen to these changes and thanks for bringing it to our notice.
I stopped posting to one of my pages of about 3000 fans because of poor engagement in recent times. I used to have over 300 reaches before but recently, sometimes not even up to 20 so I was beginning to wonder what the problem has been. I never took time to find out though. Now I think you answered my worries so I’ll go back and see what to do about it.
BTW thanks for purchasing my premium post. I need to send your 1000 bonus broadedNet credits.
Do have a wonderful weekend
Thanks Enstine. Oh yes, I do always try to keep up on the social media sites and the changes that happen on them regularly. It’s a fast paced changing world there online. I’m at 375 and you are right – if you don’t pay to promote the odds of 10 or more seeing them are slim. You are welcome, it intrigued me. Thanks for coming by Enstine and I hope you are enjoying your Sunday!
Hi Lisa,
Yes there is so much controversy regarding FB and ads and who sees what. I’ve always resisted doing a Fan Page. I’m not a big social media person even though I’m on FB. I felt that it required so much additional work to manage two pages (one person and one Fan Page), so I oft for my own personal page.
I don’t know a lot about what FB is doing as I only use FB for social interaction and don’t really worry about business although everyone has told me that social media is important. I just find it a waste of time.
Anyway, only my opinion and your information only makes me feel more of the same. Glad you explained all this to me because I really didn’t know the debt of the controversy.
I do love the groups that are on FB and I do most of my work in our commenting groups. That’s what I find very effective on FB as we can work with people and develop relationships.
Great post. I needed some of this info as I really didn’t have a clue about some of this stuff.
Regards,
Barbara
Hi Barbara, I’m glad I could shed some light on this one for you. You may be better off not having done a Facebook page and just use your personal one like Adrienne. I hate to quit on the one I set up so I continue one for now. Time will tell though. How many groups are you in Barbara? Our comment group is the only one I visit regularly. It’s just a time issue to me. Thought if I dropped the page I could save a few minutes per day. I hope you have a great Sunday and new week ahead Barbara. I appreciate your taking the time to comment on this post.
Lisa I feel Facebook doing’s a good job inspiring us to clean up shop. We pick out engaged friends, let go the rest and clean up our feeds so that we make social media, social. Otherwise it just becomes a numbers name. I’ve let go social largely; I mean I do network a little here and there but focus on writing my posts and connecting through blog commenting these days.
Thanks for the smart share Lisa!
Ryan
Hi Ryan, Yes – that’s the good part about this recent change as too many people get over promotional with their Facebook posts. Have you noticed a change since you let go of social and do more commenting Ryan? I bet you save yourself some time too, right? Thanks for coming by and sharing your input on this topic. Hope you are enjoying the weekend and newly married life!
Maybe your fans get home from church around noon or they observe the actual Sabbath rather than the church designated day? Facebook has never been my favorite place to hangout except for a couple groups I love. As far as I know we can see all posts made in a group. As for brands I actually buy, I created a list and added all the organic small brands. That way I see all the content and discounts they offer by clicking into my list. It makes it easy to find out if they are running a special when I have money to spend.
Hi Gail, That could be too. That’s what Brenda was saying too about FB groups, how many are you in? I’m in a bunch but only really got to a few weekly. Lists are great on FB too – I use them often just like via Twitter. It helps to keep us organized. Thanks for sharing Gail and I hope you are having a great weekend.
Good to know Ellen. Are you speaking of your page only or your personal Facebook account too? I wonder if groups, like Brenda mentioned is a way around it? Are you involved in many groups on Facebook? I’m in a few for blogging but find it overwhelming and dropped several last week as I was researching this topic. Thanks for your input Ellen and I like your “let it go!” Sometimes it’s a good response! Have a great Friday and weekend ahead Ellen.
Thanks Ellen for the response. I have dropped some of recent to see if it will keep me more organized. I hope you are enjoying the weekend and getting ready for more snow in the area to hit.
Hi Lisa,
Thanks for this great write up about Facebook’s latest changes. I had noticed I wasn’t getting a lot of views on my Facebook page. I’m still debating whether to take down my page or not. I’ve joined a couple of facebook groups and not only are we sharing our posts but we’re engaging on them as well. It’s helped but it’s extra work.
I don’t have to worry about over promoting my blog…sometimes I forget to share my own stuff LOL. I even tried paying to promote one of my posts after I read how it went for you but it got kicked back. I never tried again after that.
While your fans view your page at noon on Sundays, mine prefer the nighttime. I get more views from 6pm to 10 pm on Tuesdays.
I like some of their new features, I just wish they’d allow more of our posts to be viewed on the feed. I guess that’s their way of making it up to us :).
Great post Lisa. I’m going to be sharing this for sure. Hope you’re having a great week.
Hi Corina, oh, thank you! I’m going to hold steady at the moment. Glad you mentioned groups as Brenda did. I imagined it would be extra work. I do that too Corina, instead of the 80/20 rule sometimes I do the 95/5 rule, eek! I do like paying for promoted posts or likes, it does generate more but I would not do it on a steady basis and go broke. Interesting how our fans are different Corina.
Thanks for your input Corina on this and I appreciate your shares! I can’t believe tomorrow is already Friday, enjoy your day and weekend ahead!
Hey Lisa,
Yeah, I thought about it long and hard before making the decision to stop posting on my business page. I only have about 800 fans, a little more but I didn’t want to waste a lot of time getting fans only to learn that Facebook was limiting who could see your posts unless you started paying more.
Now for those eager to build up that base I can see why it would be beneficial for them but I get more interaction on my personal page which is what I prefer. I also keep forgetting to switch to the admin for my page when commenting or liking other pages so that has messed me up as well.
I don’t run contests or set up landing pages to drive people to my fan page. I’d prefer to drive them to my blog and that’s why I’ve made the decision I have.
I still enjoy Facebook although I’ve yet to be consistent there since coming back from vacation. Way too much on my plate at the moment with outside issues and appointments to deal with and haven’t been online as much as I had hoped. Once Feburary hits though I’m hoping that will all change.
Thanks for including me in this post and hope you’re enjoying your week.
~Adrienne
Hi Adrienne, thank you for sharing your experiences with us. I’m sure you did think long and hard on your decision. You do not make quick changes. I think it’s wise that you use your personal Facebook and don’t overshare your blog or promotional stuff. I think of you as the Question Lady on Facebook .
I bet you are full to the brim right now Adrienne with your house projects and your new products and everything else you do. You are welcome and I hope your week has been well too. Enjoy the upcoming weekend!
Hi Lisa,
I do have to say that I am doing well on my FB Page. I get tons of engagement via a 7 day challenge I am on and use that to engage with new people. Of course only 20% of the time I give a CTA to one of my apps on the side that has my product on it. I’m having great results so far.
I do boost a post for five bucks now and then to get a stronger reach and when I do, there is engagement on it. I also have done FB ads. Narrowing down a target market was so great to do and it was a big hit! For me anyway lol
I look at the insights once in a while and see what is popular or not. But for me, I’m still on Facebook because of one of the marketing strategies I’m using.
As far as engagement goes…it is mostly on my page. That’s what’s happening on my end. I know I’m not the popular gal in this classroom, but wanted to share.
-Donna
Hi Donna, very interesting. What is the 7 day challenge? I do the $5 boost too and have liked it but don’t want to do it on a regular basis. Right now you are the most popular gal Donna. Do you do groups as well? Brenda brought up a good point on groups and I wonder if that’s away around some others doing pages. With the massive amounts of people on Facebook I do believe it’s a place one must be but how is the question now. Thanks for coming by and sharing your story with us!
Hi Lisa; Interaction has definitely declined on all fronts. I still use the Facebook page for sharing my posts and also have it set up to post Tweets, so other people’s material is shared there as well. Every once in awhile, there’s a “like” or a comment, but, since I’m not really in this for the money, I don’t worry about it that much. Just as an experiment, I paid for a few posts and it did get a couple more people to like the page. Not worth it, but I’ll just carry on as before.
Hi Debbie, I’ve paid for some recently and it was amazing to see the lift! But I would not want to do that on a regular basis. What do you think of Facebook Groups like Brenda mentioned? Thanks for your input on this post Debbie and I hope all is well you way. Have a great weekend coming up!
I belong to a few writers’ groups and the concept is good. Problem is finding the time to make those rounds in addition to everything else.
Hi Debbie, thanks for the response – that’s my issue too – time to make the rounds! Stay warm this weekend!
