Look at Me! Look at My Posts!

I have been seeing lots of articles lately about how things are not showing up in facebook news feeds. I realized that there are several businesses that used to post regularly that I haven't been seeing. Then I realized that MY business is one of those. ARGH! With the new layout and timeline, page owners (that means businesses, bands, artists, etc.) that people have "liked" are just plain not showing up.  The page owners can see how many people are actually being reached. I'm averaging about 7%, according to their info. I can't prove it; I'll just have to take their word for it. Or pay them to reach all the people who have "liked" my page. I guess I was under the impression that by "liking" a page, people would be kept up to date with that page. Here is a link that I received (via email) from The 3/50 project that lets you know how to get the updates you thought you signed up for. You can add all the pages that you'd like to keep seeing in your news feed all at once, so if you have a lot, you can take care of them in one fell swoop.

Thank you for adding Fly Right to that list--we really can't afford to pay $15 every time we post a picture of a new item that came in, or an event in the neighborhood, or whatever other drivel we post, just to be sure that interested people can see it.  Honestly, we thought you already could.
