How many people have seen this post new feature of facebook for pages and groups

Facebook is doing lots of changes in their features after the launch of Google+ and most of them are quite impressive. Most useful and impressive feature they introduced is how many people have seen this post feature and this feature helps you a lot of if you  are running a group or page for your business purpose and gives you deep analysis of required content to be posted, what is optimum time to post the content and other related demographics. So let’s talk about some advantages, usage and disadvantages (not much) of this feature for Facebook groups as well as for Facebook pages.

How to see this feature live on Facebook?

You can see it on Facebook pages when you are the admin of any page on Facebook and it will show the number of users have seen this post on every post on the left side bottom corner, here is a screenshot which shows the number of users on Facebook page.

 

Now talking about groups you can see this feature on the right side bottom corner, here is screenshot from a Facebook group.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of this feature for Facebook users?

Yes every feature has its advantages and disadvantages depending upon on the user perspective so lets have some positive points about this feature.

1. It will help Facebook page admin to know the % of users active on their Facebook page (as Facebook edge rank ensures post reaches to active users).

2. It will help Facebook page admin to know the % of user likes what type of content (content popularity).

3. It will help Facebook page admin to know the most important time and day to post the important content (when and at what time user’s numbers is high).

4. It will help Facebook page admin to increase their fans and reach by analyzing insight demographics more efficiently.

5. Facebook group admins will now able to know that how many people are active in their group.

only disadvantage which it has that now you can see the numbers and you have to research more about the content you are going to post on Facebook page and you can also know more about popularity of your Facebook group because number of members can be misleading but number of users seen this post tells you the real story.

Conclusion-Everybody loves Facebook and these changes makes it more interesting for users but i am waiting for this feature to be enabled on Facebook member profile as well  so that we can also analysis of  what to post and when to post on Facebook status.
