Adapting to Facebook’s Changing Timeline

by Jeremy Banks Evolutesix
Facebook used to be a paradise of high organic reach for many businesses. But now that the algorithm has changed the way the news feed appears, increasing your reach has become more difficult. This means that marketers have to devise smarter approaches to reach their target audiences. So how to do your boost your presence on modern Facebook? Here are some tips:

Improve the Quality of Your Content


When you create content, you have to consider how it will be entertaining and relatable to your audience. How can it incite emotions?. People on social media have a short attention span, so you have to be able to catch and retain it.

High quality content means that you aren’t making it obvious that you’re selling to your audience. That would be a huge turn off for them. Telling stories through your content compels your customers to engage and is also a great way to convey what your brand is about. 

Use Facebook Ads


Everyone’s news feeds now mostly consist of posts from their friends and family and less from the brands they follow. So you can imagine how much difficult it is to gain reach organically for new and small businesses on Facebook. 

With a small amount of likes, where will you start? Don’t be afraid to delve into paid advertising. Spend a little money with a trusted Facebook ads service provider. The reason why they are so effective is because your post can be displayed to the audience you want. You can choose the location, age, interests, and gender. This can help you gather an initial audience and filter those who are most likely to purchase your products or services. 

Participate in Facebook Groups


Since the news feed is quite unreliable, it’s wise to go out of the box and expand your reach to groups and organizations. This works because whenever you post something, it will easily notify all the members. Conversion rates will also be higher because the audience is targeted and narrower. You can even craft your posts to adapt the style of the different groups to increase your chances.

Connect with Online Influencers


What truly gets a customer’s trust to try out a certain a product or service is another person’s recommendation, especially when it’s a reputable figure. After all, a real person’s testimony is more convincing and believable rather than you just claiming your brand is the best. 

For example, you are in the beauty and wellness industry, you can get a beauty guru to advertise you. This will tell their friends and followers about your brand, and it works because they still fall under your target audience. 

In the future, Facebook might change its algorithm again and again, but that doesn’t mean you should give up on it. It will continue to be an opportune platform to do business because of its billions of users. So just follow these tips and keep yourself updated!
