Facebook adds “Get Notifications” Feature to Facebook Fan Pages

December 30, 2012

New Get Notifications Feature I talked about Facebook’s New “Get Notifications” on my talk show “Social Media Talk with Dennis J. Smith” and did a short video on where to look for it on Facebook. This is a great asset for Facebook Fan Page owners because now your followers can get all your notifications for your page. Each time you post an update to your page they get a notification. You will find this feature by clicking the pages “Like” button or “Liked” if you have already liked the page. This is also a great feature for those of you who don’t want to miss updates from your favorite pages. Just keep in mind that the global notification will show you indication every time something is posted. What do you think about this new feature?
