Hello everyone,

I hope you all are doing well in these difficult times for everybody who earn money through internet specify Facebook. First, sorry my english isnt good, so I hope you will understand me.

Over the past few months as you all noticed Mark Fuckenberg has recently released many changes on Facebook that had a negative impact on all of us who make money from Facebook. What is interesting in the whole story of Fuckenberg changes is that not only black hat method of earning been affected. Fuckenberg fck everyone even if you are in "regular way" trying to earng money.


What makes me more frustrating is that every Fuckenberg changes more affects "small people". With all the changes that are happening, I wonder how much of us "small peoplw" will be survive all the changes on Facebook and continue to make money with them in the future?

Last week Fuckenberg surprised us with new update "explorer feed" and with that changes gonna be the "game over" for many of us. For now "explorer feed" is in a testing mode. Many publisher who are using facebook Facebook fan page like only way for traffic and sending people to website they are waiting to finish test "explorer feed"whether it will be their nightmare or reality?

For Fuckenberg and publisher with big budget "explore feed" is something great. Explore feed is actually designed as a good idea - separate friend posts from page posts. If you want to see what our post friends click on news stories, you want to see the post from the pages you look like clicking on the feed feeder. This is a great filter. But the bug in the whole story is that Facebook uploaded by default to lead to "explorer feed" and nowhere publish pages wich you are like, but in the "news feed" packed friends post and PROMOTED OR SPONSORED POST. So wait - why not put those sponsored post in the "xplore feed" if "news feed" is reserved for friends and "explore feed" for pages.

Another thing that is a big problem in the whole story is that the visibility of the posts from the pages and the interaction on them drastically dropped. That means everyone who are own Facebook fan pages needs to promote every post and pay to Fuckenberg if they want the post be shown to people who have chosen to follow them. Can you imagine how stupid is that? This is a ultracapitalism in the worst sense.

Whenever were on Facebook fan pages and were trying to manage something all the time Fuckenberg reminds us to pay something"This post is performing better than 95%" "Boost it to get more great results" etc, etc... Organic reach is almost dead and Facebook ads every day are getting more expensive. Problem is that Fuckenberg does not want a small part from our cake, he wants to take whole cake for himself even a box in which they were packaged.

Even without "explorer feed" people who own and manage Facebook fan page know how hard it is. Specially If we are earn with Adsense (like me) we know that key for earn is to have traffic on website and more traffic means more money. With the traffic from Facebook Its all the time fight to get more Likes and Fans on our Facebook page. Finily when we won with battle which is called "Page like" and we think its all is over in fact there are many more things that we must fight with it. Fight fot to get more engagement with the audience, updated daily quality content to increase organic reach and ben show post to people without paying ads.

good rant. now do something about it. find something else than spam.
 
As far as I read, they allready anounced that the Explorer Feed Changes as you describe them is only tested in 6 countries (Sri Lanka, Serbia, Bolivia, Slowakia, Guatamala and Kambodscha). These 6 are fucked....reach from Fanpages went down 75%. But FB announced its just a test and its not planned, to use the system worldwide in the future. Nveretheless for these 6 countries the test will last "some months", regarding to FB.
 
I think first we need to solve the problem with new facebook account being asked to upload photo and NEVER receive any reply from Facebook. See if you register with phone number, how is facebook going to contact you? I think Facebook is getting too tough for marketing nowadays apart from paid ads.
 
I feel you man, I started using facebook for my website early 2012 and every year it just keeps on getting harder to the point that you always have to spend to be seen. On the bright side there are other alternatives you can concentrate your efforts on like pinterest, twitter and instagram, that last one might not last long though. Never give up!
 
Stop the Greed and Just pay for Ads and Stop Whining , its not like you haven't made a dollar before this updates ......
 
I just saw a paid ad for a fake CoC gem generator that was linked to a cpabuild landingpage, can't be that bad.
 
changes happen all the time buddy. adapt or die
 
This has started in 2015 though and it will be getting worse. Currently only 16% of your total likes will see your posts and you will notice more and more ads of big brands on your time-lime. I only using them now for small CPA projects but for authority sites I will be going with other platforms.

Yes for facebook you are left with no choice but to pay for ads nowdays. This applies to instagram as well. I am conducting a test currently with manual following/ unfollowing with IG. After 50 follow/ unfollow, your post get shadowed (very little reach) and it has been more than one week. The shadow ban seems to be staying still. The reach before follow/unfollow was around 50 with engagement of more than 20 each time a new post occurs since this is a very new account. After follow/unfollow, reach dropped to less than 5.

Facebook fanpage was even worse, basically reach is near non existence.

Currently for facebook it seems that people are doing mass invites to page groups. There is a bot for this purpose and seems to be doing well for the moment. But unfortunately with the explore feeds being rolled out, this method will die off within the next few weeks/ months.
 
What Bot?

Like I say don't bother with the bot since this method can only last for a short period until explore feed is rolled out. Try manual inviting. If you really want to do this, work on Pinterest group instead. The results are better if you are promoting stuffs that ladies love.
 
I think that they are always changes in facebook about blackhats, but think about it, facebook makes a lot of money from Bh, sometimes it gets harder to launch them but then after 1 month everything returns to normal, I suggest you to have more patience and do things well! Good Luck mate!

I managed to get profiles back when they ask for photo verification. Just upload random selfie from web. It worked for me in 66% of cases.

yep, thats how it goes,
fb still works if managed properly, just getting bit harder to keep things going, but the price is worth the pain.
