You don't understand what I'm saying: if the process was "click this so all your fans will see it instead of just the ones who tend to care" every band would click it every time.
Money is one thing, but if you're a clever band and you engage the people who "like" you, you'll get the same effect for free. Truth is, most people who "like" a band don't really care about the FB posts, they're liking them for other reasons.
FB's policy is reasonable and fair.
- nitrogen 14y agoFacebook could approach the problem from a different angle, like making it more obvious to users that they don't see everything in their news feed, and giving average, unskilled users easier ways to control what they see. Instead, they are looking for ways to make money. Even if reaching all your fans with a post instead of the most avid is valuable enough to pay for it, I don't like the direction in which that pushes social expectations of the world.
