In fact, if you haven\u2019t read it yet, you can access it here): (Attention Cody: add in this link to the last article, and hyperlink it where the blue word here is above.) https:\/\/manuelsuarez.com\/category\/blog\/ Facebook, even though it IS a Social platform, it is STILL a BUSINESS, and THEY CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE MONEY. People come onto the Social Platform to be \u201cSocial\u201d. And even though many people make purchases and they DO respond to Facebook ads (of course, if it\u2019s about something that they care about), and they follow companies which they often end up becoming customers and clients of and actually doing business WITH, the #1 reason for Facebook\u2019s users to be on the platform is to be \u201cSocial\u201d, and Facebook KNOWS this. So, they created their algorithm. Now before I go any further, I want to first share the definition of the word \u201calgorithm\u201d so that you\u2019ll first have the general meaning of the word: Al.go.rithm (noun): a process or set of rules to be followed in calculations or other problem-solving operations, especially by a computer. That definition is the simplest one I found; it is from the Oxford Dictionary (online). So, now let\u2019s continue talking about Facebook\u2019s algorithm: It is a SET OF RULES that essentially \u201cfigures out\u201d what each user likes (as well as what they DON\u2019T like), and they\u2019re able to gather this information from each user\u2019s unique history on the platform. Let me explain a little further. It\u2019s actually pretty amazing. It\u2019s actually downright FASCINATING, when you really think about it. Ever since you opened your Facebook account (whether that is 10 years ago, 8 years ago, last year, or last month -- you get the picture), they\u2019ve been gathering DATA...About the pages that you like, about the friends that you have, about the posts you comment on, the things that you share, about the things that you interact with and about, the pages you actually send messages to, the websites that you visit when you click on a link on an ad or a post, and on and on and on\u2026 All of that data has been gathered about EVERY SINGLE USER of the platform. And there are well over 1 AND A HALF BILLION (Closer to 2 Billion) Active Daily Users logging onto Facebook every single day. Just think, that\u2019s only the DAILY users. There are even MORE users out there who log on regularly, but not daily (they have 2.41 Billion MONTHLY Active Users)...and Facebook has individual data on EACH and EVERY one of them. WOW. That\u2019s mind-blowing. And the BEST THING about all of that data is the fact that Facebook can help us Marketers and Advertisers to target our EXACT, IDEAL audience and customers, down to the minutest DETAIL. I\u2019ll say it again. WOW. WOW. WOW. I\u2019m not kidding when I say this, guys. I am TOTALLY SERIOUS: Facebook\u2019s algorithm is MAGICAL. It makes SURE that EVERY SINGLE TIME that each individual person opens up their Facebook app or logs onto the Facebook website, each and every single person is going to encounter posts, content, videos and ads about things that they KNOW and that they LIKE . Things that they enjoy consuming. And when THAT occurs for each unique and individual user, then those users STAY on the platform. Some for HOURS at a time, some come back and check into the platform several times a day. And when users stay on the platform because they are ENJOYING THEIR EXPERIENCE on the platform, guess what Facebook can do? Yep -- you guessed it! They can sell more ads, and make more money. Facebook is happy, their USERS are happy, and us Advertisers who know how to use this knowledge to implement the strategies correctly, well, WE\u2019RE happy too. Everybody\u2019s happy as long as the platform\u2019s USERS are happy...PURE GENIUS are words that come to mind when describing the Facebook algorithm, don\u2019t you agree? This algorithm is the most POWERFUL that I\u2019ve seen thus far. And it\u2019s AVAILABLE to US to use for FREE! Do you see the incredibly, massively POWERFUL OPPORTUNITY that is open for us right now? Facebook is the KING of PLATFORMS, and of course there\u2019s Instagram (which is also Facebook-owned), and the rest. But Facebook is and remains the UNDISPUTED CHAMPION of platforms. You can even SEE the power of Facebook\u2019s algorithm evidenced in the incredible meteoric rise of Facebook\u2019s stock in the market. According to reports and articles found online, Facebook reported \u201cbetter than expected second-quarter results\u201d in 2019 when it came to earnings and revenue, as \u2018advertisers continue flocking to their site (Source: CNBC website). They\u2019ve been able to make so much money because they\u2019ve kept more people on the platform than any other platform has EVER been able to accomplish. More than YouTube, more than Snapchat, more than Twitter...more than ANY OTHER Social Media Platform that has EVER existed. And just think, you\u2019ve got ALL of the other platforms out there trying to figure out how to copy the Facebook algorithm, and nobody else have been able to figure it out. Kind of like trying to figure out how the pyramids were built, right? The Facebook algorithm equals one thing, and one thing only, and I want you all to really understand this, because by KNOWING this, you\u2019re going to be able to actually HARNESS its power. The Facebook algorithm equals USER EXPERIENCE. So with that in mind, let\u2019s talk about how You, and I, and ALL of us brand owners, business owners and marketers can work WITH this amazing algorithm. IN 2018, Facebook began to ADJUST the overall algorithm to make sure that the organic content that people were seeing was content that was posted by \u201cfriends\/family\u201d and brands...pretty much in THAT order, meaning that content and posts from friends and family were \u201cSenior\u201d -- meaning that they took precedence over the content posted by brands\u2019 pages. The reality is that this was actually a really GOOD change, and here\u2019s why. It meant that WE as advertisers, at that point back in 2018, MORE THAN EVER, we had NO CHOICE but to really LEARN how to advertise on the platform. Now, for some brands (like the brands that I was talking about in my last article about organic content), this wasn\u2019t a GOOD change in their opinions, because they had really been able to capture MASSIVE attention with their organic content only, meaning they didn\u2019t have to invest any money or financial energy into growing their huge audiences. Well, at least it wasn\u2019t seen as a good change to ANYONE at FIRST. But HERE is the reason why it was actually a GREAT change: Because once you\u2019ve learned something, you cannot un-learn it. Nobody and Nothing can ever take what you learn away from you. So as advertisers, we had to learn a skill set that will always be of value to us. That algorithm adjustment had us on our TOES. And even as new changes occurred (and sometimes continue to occur) with the algorithm, we were able to learn the changes and figure it out. Through learning, testing, implementing, adjusting, learning NEW things, testing, implementing, adjusting, etc. etc...we keep adding to our expertise and gaining mastery. And that is more pavement on the road to greatness. So let\u2019s go back to the change in the algorithm in 2018. At that point, the \u201corganic game\u201d as we knew it was OVER...meaning that the days were now gone when brands could use their organic content to have Facebook continue to work as a huge, snowball\/windfall machine that created massive audiences of followers for them. No longer could they depend solely upon their organic posts. Now, in MY brand\u2019s case (we\u2019re an Advertising Agency), we of course kept on surviving and THRIVING, and the reason why we kept on surviving is because as an agency, we focused on creating Monster-Profitable brands through the use of Facebook advertising, meaning that in addition to continuing to consistently put out organic content, WE also FOCUSED ON GIVING MONEY TO FACEBOOK, so that they could continue to help us find the IDEAL CUSTOMERS for US, as well as for our clients\u2019 brands. We understood why Facebook made the adjustment, and we \u201cgot it\u201d. We understood exactly why Facebook would make their number one priority be about User Experience, and we knew that Facebook wouldn\u2019t be changing that part of the algorithm. So we rolled up our sleeves, put our heads down, and dug deep into mastering the algorithm, staying current, and getting out in front of changes as they occur, so that we can keep our brands and our clients\u2019 brands profitable no matter what. And Facebook has been our greatest Ally and Partner along the way. And do you know why? Because WE ARE FACEBOOK\u2019S CUSTOMERS. WE - the Advertisers, are Facebook\u2019s customers. Not the users. The users are the USERS. The platform is FREE for them to use. The Advertisers are the CUSTOMERS. We are the ones who PAY FACEBOOK DIRECTLY, for advertising to THEIR users on THEIR enormous platform. And THAT\u2019S how Facebook makes their dollars. And THAT\u2019S why they WANT us to learn, master and become \u201cfriends\u201d with the algorithm. And THAT\u2019S why they make the algorithm (multi-million dollar software) available to us for FREE. Because the BETTER we know the algorithm, the better our results will be with our advertising efforts. And that means we\u2019re going to scale up...and Up...and UP, and spend even MORE with Facebook. So that\u2019s the thing. Facebook WANTS YOU TO WIN, because when YOU win, THEY win, and the USERS win, because they are seeing content and ads that they\u2019re interested in. It\u2019s a win\/win\/win. So, get in, and be a part of these WINS, guys! Learn the algorithm. Become FRIENDS with it, and then MASTER it. There you go!

In fact, if you haven\u2019t read it yet, you can access it here): (Attention Cody: add in this link to the last article, and hyperlink it where the blue word here is above.) https:\/\/manuelsuarez.com\/category\/blog\/ Facebook, even though it IS a Social platform, it is STILL a BUSINESS, and THEY CANNOT AFFORD TO LOSE MONEY. People come onto the Social Platform to be \u201cSocial\u201d. And even though many people make purchases and they DO respond to Facebook ads (of course, if it\u2019s about something that they care about), and they follow companies which they often end up becoming customers and clients of and actually doing business WITH, the #1 reason for Facebook\u2019s users to be on the platform is to be \u201cSocial\u201d, and Facebook KNOWS this. So, they created their algorithm. Now before I go any further, I want to first share the definition of the word \u201calgorithm\u201d so that you\u2019ll first have the general meaning of the word: Al.go.rithm (noun): a process or set of rules to be followed in calculations or other problem-solving operations, especially by a computer. That definition is the simplest one I found; it is from the Oxford Dictionary (online). So, now let\u2019s continue talking about Facebook\u2019s algorithm: It is a SET OF RULES that essentially \u201cfigures out\u201d what each user likes (as well as what they DON\u2019T like), and they\u2019re able to gather this information from each user\u2019s unique history on the platform. Let me explain a little further. It\u2019s actually pretty amazing. It\u2019s actually downright FASCINATING, when you really think about it. Ever since you opened your Facebook account (whether that is 10 years ago, 8 years ago, last year, or last month -- you get the picture), they\u2019ve been gathering DATA...About the pages that you like, about the friends that you have, about the posts you comment on, the things that you share, about the things that you interact with and about, the pages you actually send messages to, the websites that you visit when you click on a link on an ad or a post, and on and on and on\u2026 All of that data has been gathered about EVERY SINGLE USER of the platform. And there are well over 1 AND A HALF BILLION (Closer to 2 Billion) Active Daily Users logging onto Facebook every single day. Just think, that\u2019s only the DAILY users. There are even MORE users out there who log on regularly, but not daily (they have 2.41 Billion MONTHLY Active Users)...and Facebook has individual data on EACH and EVERY one of them. WOW. That\u2019s mind-blowing. And the BEST THING about all of that data is the fact that Facebook can help us Marketers and Advertisers to target our EXACT, IDEAL audience and customers, down to the minutest DETAIL. I\u2019ll say it again. WOW. WOW. WOW. I\u2019m not kidding when I say this, guys. I am TOTALLY SERIOUS: Facebook\u2019s algorithm is MAGICAL. It makes SURE that EVERY SINGLE TIME that each individual person opens up their Facebook app or logs onto the Facebook website, each and every single person is going to encounter posts, content, videos and ads about things that they KNOW and that they LIKE . Things that they enjoy consuming. And when THAT occurs for each unique and individual user, then those users STAY on the platform. Some for HOURS at a time, some come back and check into the platform several times a day. And when users stay on the platform because they are ENJOYING THEIR EXPERIENCE on the platform, guess what Facebook can do? Yep -- you guessed it! They can sell more ads, and make more money. Facebook is happy, their USERS are happy, and us Advertisers who know how to use this knowledge to implement the strategies correctly, well, WE\u2019RE happy too. Everybody\u2019s happy as long as the platform\u2019s USERS are happy...PURE GENIUS are words that come to mind when describing the Facebook algorithm, don\u2019t you agree? This algorithm is the most POWERFUL that I\u2019ve seen thus far. And it\u2019s AVAILABLE to US to use for FREE! Do you see the incredibly, massively POWERFUL OPPORTUNITY that is open for us right now? Facebook is the KING of PLATFORMS, and of course there\u2019s Instagram (which is also Facebook-owned), and the rest. But Facebook is and remains the UNDISPUTED CHAMPION of platforms. You can even SEE the power of Facebook\u2019s algorithm evidenced in the incredible meteoric rise of Facebook\u2019s stock in the market. According to reports and articles found online, Facebook reported \u201cbetter than expected second-quarter results\u201d in 2019 when it came to earnings and revenue, as \u2018advertisers continue flocking to their site (Source: CNBC website). They\u2019ve been able to make so much money because they\u2019ve kept more people on the platform than any other platform has EVER been able to accomplish. More than YouTube, more than Snapchat, more than Twitter...more than ANY OTHER Social Media Platform that has EVER existed. And just think, you\u2019ve got ALL of the other platforms out there trying to figure out how to copy the Facebook algorithm, and nobody else have been able to figure it out. Kind of like trying to figure out how the pyramids were built, right? The Facebook algorithm equals one thing, and one thing only, and I want you all to really understand this, because by KNOWING this, you\u2019re going to be able to actually HARNESS its power. The Facebook algorithm equals USER EXPERIENCE. So with that in mind, let\u2019s talk about how You, and I, and ALL of us brand owners, business owners and marketers can work WITH this amazing algorithm. IN 2018, Facebook began to ADJUST the overall algorithm to make sure that the organic content that people were seeing was content that was posted by \u201cfriends\/family\u201d and brands...pretty much in THAT order, meaning that content and posts from friends and family were \u201cSenior\u201d -- meaning that they took precedence over the content posted by brands\u2019 pages. The reality is that this was actually a really GOOD change, and here\u2019s why. It meant that WE as advertisers, at that point back in 2018, MORE THAN EVER, we had NO CHOICE but to really LEARN how to advertise on the platform. Now, for some brands (like the brands that I was talking about in my last article about organic content), this wasn\u2019t a GOOD change in their opinions, because they had really been able to capture MASSIVE attention with their organic content only, meaning they didn\u2019t have to invest any money or financial energy into growing their huge audiences. Well, at least it wasn\u2019t seen as a good change to ANYONE at FIRST. But HERE is the reason why it was actually a GREAT change: Because once you\u2019ve learned something, you cannot un-learn it. Nobody and Nothing can ever take what you learn away from you. So as advertisers, we had to learn a skill set that will always be of value to us. That algorithm adjustment had us on our TOES. And even as new changes occurred (and sometimes continue to occur) with the algorithm, we were able to learn the changes and figure it out. Through learning, testing, implementing, adjusting, learning NEW things, testing, implementing, adjusting, etc. etc...we keep adding to our expertise and gaining mastery. And that is more pavement on the road to greatness. So let\u2019s go back to the change in the algorithm in 2018. At that point, the \u201corganic game\u201d as we knew it was OVER...meaning that the days were now gone when brands could use their organic content to have Facebook continue to work as a huge, snowball\/windfall machine that created massive audiences of followers for them. No longer could they depend solely upon their organic posts. Now, in MY brand\u2019s case (we\u2019re an Advertising Agency), we of course kept on surviving and THRIVING, and the reason why we kept on surviving is because as an agency, we focused on creating Monster-Profitable brands through the use of Facebook advertising, meaning that in addition to continuing to consistently put out organic content, WE also FOCUSED ON GIVING MONEY TO FACEBOOK, so that they could continue to help us find the IDEAL CUSTOMERS for US, as well as for our clients\u2019 brands. We understood why Facebook made the adjustment, and we \u201cgot it\u201d. We understood exactly why Facebook would make their number one priority be about User Experience, and we knew that Facebook wouldn\u2019t be changing that part of the algorithm. So we rolled up our sleeves, put our heads down, and dug deep into mastering the algorithm, staying current, and getting out in front of changes as they occur, so that we can keep our brands and our clients\u2019 brands profitable no matter what. And Facebook has been our greatest Ally and Partner along the way. And do you know why? Because WE ARE FACEBOOK\u2019S CUSTOMERS. WE - the Advertisers, are Facebook\u2019s customers. Not the users. The users are the USERS. The platform is FREE for them to use. The Advertisers are the CUSTOMERS. We are the ones who PAY FACEBOOK DIRECTLY, for advertising to THEIR users on THEIR enormous platform. And THAT\u2019S how Facebook makes their dollars. And THAT\u2019S why they WANT us to learn, master and become \u201cfriends\u201d with the algorithm. And THAT\u2019S why they make the algorithm (multi-million dollar software) available to us for FREE. Because the BETTER we know the algorithm, the better our results will be with our advertising efforts. And that means we\u2019re going to scale up...and Up...and UP, and spend even MORE with Facebook. So that\u2019s the thing. Facebook WANTS YOU TO WIN, because when YOU win, THEY win, and the USERS win, because they are seeing content and ads that they\u2019re interested in. It\u2019s a win\/win\/win. So, get in, and be a part of these WINS, guys! Learn the algorithm. Become FRIENDS with it, and then MASTER it. There you go!
