EDGERANK
o Facebook’s algorithm is stacked against us.
edgerank o Feed is optimized to show users the posts they are most
likely to engage with, where engagement is defined as clicking, liking, commenting, or sharing the post.
o Posts that are more likely to be engaging tend to appear higher in feed. Some of the strongest factors that influence this are how engaging an individual post has been for other users who have seen it, and how engaged a user has historically been with other posts they’ve seen from that page.
o If a page has a piece of content that it feels will be very engaging e.g. A great photo, an announcement, etc. then using paid media to “boost” that post to fans in newsfeed can be an effective tool to increase engagement with fans.
