Facebook now shows ‘Send in WhatsApp’ button more prominently for public posts. Here an example: 

Facebook has started rolling out an update to Android, where all posts with ‘public’ privacy settings will now show the WhatsApp share button. This feature was already present in the ‘More Options’ but Facebook says given the interest of sharing information on WhatsApp, they are making it more prominent.

Facebook has introduced a new option for Stories that will allow users to add a presentation of still images Slideshow to their Story.

Discovered by social media expert Matt Navarra, the new option provides a simplified way to add a sequence of images, which will be reproduced through the frames of its history.

I know what everyone is thinking, "I know how to do that now", but selecting each image one by one, but with this new option it will be much easier and save us time.

Good news! More advertisers can now place ads in Facebook’s search results, a placement that has been in testing since last year. Search Ad Placement was originally rolled out at the end of 2018 to retail and auto industries only in the US, but at the end of July 2019, Facebook rolled out the placement to some e-commerce advertisers.

Unlike Google Ads, you cannot target specific keywords or complete phrases with Facebook Search Ads. Instead of this, you can select the "Search" placement and leave it to the algorithms. So, your Ad will show up for search terms related to your business’s offerings.

How to use Search placement

• Select the "Facebook Feed Placement" and then select the option of "Search". You need to know that "Search" is an additional placement option when creating newsfeed campaigns.

The Search placement will actually be visible in Facebook Search results, as well as Marketplace search results.

It’s happening: now Page Admins can publish and schedule posts on Instagram and IGTV thanks to Facebook's Creator Studio app.

Facebook finally meets the demand of many Community Managers. Until now, it was necessary to go to third-party tools to program content on Instagram, but Facebook has just implemented the possibility of doing it natively, through Facebook Creator Studio.

About 4 years ago Facebook introduced its tool "Why am I seeing this ad??", but recently they made updates that you should know.

The most important thing is that now they show more detail of why an ad appears on Facebook. In the past, “Why am I seeing this ad?” Highlighted only one or two of the most relevant reasons, such as demographic information or that you have visited a website. While now show more detailed information, including interests or categories that matched a specific ad. It will also be clearer where that information came from (for example, the website you visited or the page you liked), and will highlight the controls that the user can use to easily adjust their experience.

Important change in Facebook Mobile Newsfeed!!!  

Aspect Ratios for Photos and Video

Instead of 2:3 from 19.08.2019 we will only be able to use maximum 4:5 aspect ratio on mobile News Feed.

Fewer Lines of Text

Let's talk about the last layer in our funnel: after a person has finally made a purchase we want to increase the loyalty and offer options such as: Upsell & Cross-Sell. This is how we do it. 

Upsell: is used to encourage a customer to move from considering one item within a product category to another that would have higher profitability. For example: I am in an Apple Store and I want to buy an iPhone 6 and they offer me the iPhone 10 and they convinced me to make the purchase.

Cross-sell: When someone purchases an item from one product set of items, you can cross-sell related items from another product set. For example: I am in an Apple Store and they convinced me to purchase a related product to my iPhone, like AirPods.  

Upsell or Cross-sell campaigns with FB Dynamic Ads

Facebook has announced that it is introducing more ways for the Creators to earn money on its site, starting by giving them the ability to choose better placement for ads in their videos. Facebook says that creators will now have the choice to include non-interruptive advertising formats, such as pre-roll or image-based ads. 

Facebook Stars

Facebook is testing Stars a new feature that was originally designed for the gaming community to let creators make money directly from their hardcore fans. Viewers can purchase packs of 100 Stars for $1.40, and streamers will get 1 cent per Star sent. 

Facebook is also analyzing how much the creators of their followers earn through their direct payments. The company’s “Fan subscriptions” program lets viewers pay creators each month for exclusive content and other rewards. This is an option very similar to the start-up Patreon, which lets an individual collect payments from fans.
