      Hi

      I am fully aware of how to do facebook paid advertising but I follow a page called:

      https://www.facebook.com/GiveMeSport/

      They know that I am a Liverpool fan (might a filled out a survey once or some other way, but they know I support the greatest football team on the planet) however they only ever show me Liverpool articles in my feed and they are organic. They post a lot more but i never see any of it.

      Does anyone know how they are able to do this as I would love to segment people on my site and target them accordingly.

      Thanks in Advance

      Andy

        From what I understand Facebook gives pages with over a large number of likes/followers the option to target their posts.

        I think your page has to have over 5,000 likes (could be wrong)

        I don't do a large amount of Facebook posting or advertising myself so someone with more knowledge might be able to shed more light on it but that is what I know 🙂

          There is a good blog article on it here : http://www.socialmediaexaminer.com/facebook-organic-post-targeting/

          Doesn't say anything about only large pages having access to do it so you might be able to do it with a small amount of followers as well.

            Hi

            I figured it out, its in demographics - will try out later and see what difference in results I get.

            Image below, but basically click on Demographics before you post

            But you do need a certain number of Facebook likes it does seem as some of the smaller pages I manage I get do this.
