Facebook is known to work and earns from its News Feed. So the feature is vital to the social network.
The company announced today small but important tweaks στον αλγόριθμο του News Feed, για να δείχνει περισσότερο περιεχόμενο από τους φίλους σας ενδιαφέρουν, και πιθανώς λιγότερο από σελίδες. Το κοινωνικό δίκτυο εξήγησε όμως και για πρώτη φορά τις "βασικές αξίες που θέτουν τις κατευθυντήριες αρχές πίσω από κάθε βελτίωση στο News Feed σας εδώ και αρκετά χρόνια."
Don't expect any major announcements, Facebook's values are pretty obvious as a whole, but it's nice to see the rationale behind every little tweak the company has made.
"Friends and family come first"
Facebook says it prioritizes messages posted by close friends and family over all other types of posts. It tries to learn your preferences for the exact type of posts you want to see based on the things you upload (photos, texts from specific people etc), and displays them at the top of your News Feed.
After friends and family, the company first tries to "inform you" with stories from current events, celebrity stories, or recipes.
And secondly "to entertain you." Sometimes that means you'll see viral videos or funny photos. Facebook wants to make sure your feed isn't boring.
"A platform για όλες τις ιδέες"
Facebook says it is trying to connect people with ideas and stories that they find more meaningful. This means that it will not only show the stories you may find pleasant, but rather those that can be exciting for you.
For example, a Facebook study last year found that more than a quarter of the links you can read to your News Feed are from opposing political opinions and people are interested in listening to the opposition, no matter how strongly they disagree.
Facebook says that while it does not favor specific types of ideas, it displays stories that most people want to see more in their News Feed.
"Authentic Communication"
In other words, honesty. The company says it works hard to spread genuine stories and not hoaxes or "misleading and spammy" stuff.
"You can control your experience"
It gives you the option to remove, track or hide messages (δημοσιεύσεων), καθώς και το κουμπί "Να βλέπω πρώτα" για να δίνετε προτεραιότητα. Αν αποκρύψετε ένα μήνυμα από κάποιον, αυτό δείχνει ότι πιθανά θέλετε να διαβάσετε λιγότερες ιστορίες από το εν λόγω πρόσωπο, και ο αλγόριθμος του News Feed αντιδρά αναλόγως.
"Continuous Repeat"
Facebook says it sees your project as "1 percent final," so it's constantly changing the design and giving feedback to improve your News Feed. He says he wants a more transparent News Feed moving forward, hence today's update.
Pages will appear less and higher priority is for friends and family.
As part of this change, Facebook says it expects "this update may cause a decrease in traffic to some pages."
The amount of reduction depends on those who follow you. If publications σας τείνουν να είναι το είδος που οι ακόλουθοι σας μοιράζονται με τους φίλους και την οικογένειά τους, η σελίδα σας θα πάει καλύτερα. Αλλά αν μοιράζεστε κυρίως δημοσιεύσεις χωρίς ενδιαφέρον οι σελίδες σας θα πατώσουν....
