Dont Dread Tomorrows Mandatory Switch To Timeline, Studies Show Its Good For 95% Of Facebook Pages
On March 1st Facebook let the world feast its eyes on Timeline for Pages, and tomorrow after a month of voluntary migration it will force all Pages to switch to the redesign. But don't worry, it doesn't significantly impact the rate of new Page Likes, and95% of Pages who've switched have seen more Likes of their posts and people talking about them according to a study that social marketing platform Wildfire gave TechCrunch an early look at. Only megabrands with over 10 million Likes have seen reduced engagement, but this was in part due to a lull following press exposure during the Timeline launch. Note that these are early results and it will take a while for the exact impact of Timeline to be clear. We'll be following up as data emerges.There's more good news for smaller Pages. A study shared with us by enterprise marketing platform Hearsay Social shows local business Pages with fewer fans get 5x more exposure in the news feed, and 8x more of the fans reached will engage with a post. That means big brands with lots of local branches can get 40x the engagement by having a Page for each store.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/-ftPcWCnneE/
