Comment likes do help in Comment Ranking

Likes and replies will always be prioritized by Facebook to display on the Page as well as prioritized to be displayed on that post because it receives a lot of attention and interaction. What is of interest, Facebook's calculations will display first and appear more often.
 
This was new to me, just made some tests sending some likes to comments and they moved the comment from the bottom of the list to the top in "most relevant" and "all comments" filters. Geo Targeting even not needed. Where could it be used? Is it same for TikTok and Instagram? But there it seems a bit more difficult to get it.
Their features are the same, all social networks are the same.
 
Comment likes definitely help push comments up, especially when the topic is active. Commenting and getting likes can help drive engagement, but it’s not as obvious as Facebook.
 
This was new to me, I tested sending likes to comments, and it pushed them from the bottom to the top under both 'most relevant' and 'all comments' filters. No geo-targeting needed. Could this trick be used on TikTok or Instagram too? It seems harder to pull off there.
 
Yeah, boosting comment likes definitely pushes them up, I tested it too and saw the same. Great for making certain replies more visible, especially on viral posts. Haven’t seen the same effect on TikTok or IG though, seems harder to influence there. But for FB, it’s a solid tactic if used right.
 
It's like a little signal of engagement from the algorithm. Commenting and getting likes can help drive engagement,
 
Yes, comment likes can definetely boost ranking. I have seen on facebook, its a quick way to get more visibility. On Instagram and Tiktok, it helps too but other factors like replies and timing matter more there.

comments in comments I think it's the best thing that platforms aim for to get high ranking in comments, but there's no denying that likes are also a part of it
 
For Facebook: If the number of emojis (likes, loves, haha,...) is from fake accounts, strange accounts (strange to the commenter, meaning between 2 accounts with no or few friends in common), it may be ignored and not counted to be on top. As for the number of emojis from familiar accounts with many friends in common, that comment is easier to get to the top.
However, Facebook does not only consider the number of emojis, it also considers other factors such as: was the comment newly created or a long time ago (because newly posted comments will get to the top more easily); the number of replies to the comment also helps the comment to get to the top quickly, especially if the author likes and responds to your comment; the content of the comment is sometimes also considered and evaluated;...
 
Likes on comments boost their ranking in the popular filter, enhancing organic reach. Other platforms use similar methods, but with different algorithms, so testing is essential for optimization.
 
Like or like comments will appear first and Facebook will update the latest comments so that everyone can easier see this is Facebook's algorithm
 
Likes definitely help with ranking comments, works on TikTok & IG as well.
 
From what I see, comment likes definitely help push comments higher, Commenting and getting likes can help drive engagement
 
It's like a small signal of engagement in the algorithm. Commenting and getting likes can help drive engagement, but it's not as obvious as Facebook.
 
Just liking a comment can push it to the top without geo-targeting, useful for increasing reputation and directing public opinion, while Instagram and TikTok are difficult to manipulate.
 
It's the same on any platform, not just Facebook. The more interactions a comment has, the higher it will be in the post so other users can see it. Facebook does this to spread the value of those comments to the community.
 
especially when the thread is active. It seems like a small signal of algorithmic engagement. Curious to see if anyone has tested it in different sections. Commenting and getting likes can help drive engagement, but not as clearly as Facebook.
 
Commenting and liking can indeed increase the number of comments, but attention should be paid to authenticity.
