Facebook Launches Exciting New Features

TIPS & TRICKS 3.jpg

Happy Women’s History Month!

At Fanslike Agency, we are so thrilled to currently be working with incredible female innovators, such as director Marina Shron and musician January Thompson.

To celebrate, we wanted to share our latest Tips & Tricks feature with you, including updates on Facebook’s new functions.

Following Snapchat and Instagram’s popular ‘Black History Month’ stickers, Facebook has created new visual tools to celebrate ‘Women's History Month’ this March. However, to access them, you have to use Facebook Stories.

Stories features in general have seen rapid growth in usage, even on Facebook (which lags far behind Instagram and Snapchat in this area). Still, it’s a great way to show solidarity for a wonderful cause, and help boost users interest in your pages!

We also wanted to let you know that you can now share events on Facebook Stories!

While usage is still relatively low on Facebook Stories compared to other platforms, their new event sharing feature could change that. Now when people visit a Facebook event page, they will see a Share to Your Story option, enabling them to share information about the event via Stories. They’ve also added tappable stickers on Stories, which provide event details and links without leaving the story. Facebook still totally dominates other platforms through its event pages. Making this information shareable via their Stories feature could be the edge they need to regain the attention of Snapchat and Instagram users.
