Hello, dear readers of the blog site. Facebook has now become a kind of universe inhabited by millions of users eager to communicate.
The Facebook audience on weekends already exceeds the audience of such a monster as, and I consider it wrong and one-sided approach not to try to bite off at least a small piece of this fat pie.
By the way, in order to increase the share of its presence on mobile market this company bought for crazy money. This is also a separate universe with multi-million audience about which I have already written in detail.
So, let's start studying one of the most popular social networks. I will try to tell about everything as detailed and accessible as possible, accompanying the description with the necessary illustrations. I hope you appreciate my work...
Registration on Facebook, login to the page and first steps
Another thing is to deploy a full-fledged and large-scale advertising campaign on Facebook, only very serious commercial ones can afford, or those who have already become popular and therefore make good money information projects. But what should site owners do who also want to take part in biting off a small fraction of the audience of such a monster?
First, you will need to start simply register on the official website of Facebook , then create your own page on it with the ability to automatic addition to it announcements of articles from your site, and, secondly, try to attract more people who clicked on the "" button, and somehow popularize it.
We will talk about all this in this article, which promises to be voluminous, so sit back and tune in to the perception of information.
How the social network Facebook appeared and developed
The history of the emergence and development of the Facebook project turned out to be so interesting, dynamic and dizzying that a film was made about it in 2010 under the telling title "The Social Network", which received quite a few awards at prestigious film forums.
In short, this company was registered by its main creator and ideologist Mark Zuckerberg in 2004 and is currently one of the most expensive Internet projects (along with Google, the website project, etc.).
At first, Facebook was available only to students of one of the state universities, and then all students of the United States could use it. After the appearance of the prototype of the social network in the public, relatively little time passed until the moment when it became a hit of all times and peoples.
But we are more interested in the Facebook audience, which is still growing. This is especially noticeable in the Russian location, which appeared and began to gain popularity starting in 2008. I think that soon he will crush his main competitor (at the time of appearance, you can say that a clone) and become undisputed leader in the market of social networks of RuNet.
Therefore, I advise you to pay attention to this social network in terms of using it for the benefit of your project. Just as theater starts with a hanger, so does Facebook work. starts with registration. As I mentioned, the interface and reference system they have now been fully translated into Russian and, probably, a description of the steps would be redundant, but I have a resource for beginners, so ...
Registration on the official site Facebook.com
Login to the social network and fill out your profile on FB
The information you provide will be available to everyone, but will not be published in the News Feed.
Yes, and I want to immediately take this moment to warn you against being too frank. when completing your Facebook profile or any other social network. At first glance, all this may seem harmless and even cool, especially since you can very clearly configure the circle of people who will be able to view your personal data.
But we are all human and everyone is prone to make mistakes, including with privacy settings. Getting your personal data, which may seem completely harmless to you at first glance, into the hands of scammers can play a cruel joke on you.
And if Internet scammers are not interested in you now, then they may well use the information collected on you in the future, when, for example, you succeed in any of your undertakings and you have something to steal. In the article, I gave four main reasons why mail is hacked, and this is done 99% automatically, and only then they figure out what exactly they managed to get.
And this does not at all apply to data that can later be considered compromising evidence. Of course not. It can be any little things from your personal life that will later help scammers in carrying out fraud using social engineering(you will forget that you once posted this information in public). Be vigilant, and if you like - paranoid, because not everything around is as rosy and sunny as it might seem at first glance.
By the way, in Facebook for some time it was generally impossible to delete the information added there during registration. And only after numerous complaints from users, such an opportunity appeared. Now you can always (here is instruction), but the truth is not final, but only deactivate it.
It's just that your personal information will not be shown to any of the participants in the social network, however, this data will be saved and can be restored when you re-enter Facebook using your username and password.
For final removal all your data from this social network you will need to go through here.
How to update your FB cover and profile photo
After that, you can do it with a light soul setting up your profile. Actually, I have already spoken about the importance of not advertising your personal information (the less scoundrels know about you, the better you will sleep), but it is up to you, of course, to decide.
In the left upper corner there is a faintly visible camera icon, when you click on it, you can easily decorate your page by changing its cover.
You can choose any of the pictures you have (if you have already published something on your page and have plenty to choose from), or upload a photo from a computer, or choose a design from the FB bins available:

By clicking on the inscription that appears about changing the photo, a window will open asking you to upload a photo from your computer, add one of the proposed frames to the photo, or edit an existing avatar:
Facebook homepage and its 15 key components

On the left you will have a list of people in which you can select an opponent for communication. You can not only write a message to him, but also send a smiley (here, for example,), boast about some video or photo, say a short audio recording (this is if you are too lazy to type a large text):

Let's say you looked at everything in the feed and you liked something - you don't want to publish it on your page, but save it so you don't have to look for where and from whom you saw it, you want. In the upper right corner of the publication you like, click on the three dots and select "Save publication":
So, in the "Saved" tab, all your saved publications will be stored.

Security and login to my Facebook page
Here you can:
General settings - change password and delete account
On the tab General can:
Timeline and tag settings
This tab also has a few in my opinion important settings. After all, it often happens that they begin to mark you on all their publications without your permission. As a result, your page is littered with unnecessary content, and even your friends will “admire” posts that are not related to you. So, to prevent this from happening, let's see a few settings that the "Chronicle and Tags" tab offers us:
Blocking management
Let's look at what this tab gives us and what or who we can block using it:
- List " Limited access» - If you add a friend to your Restricted List, that person will not be able to see Facebook posts you share only with your Friends audience, but will be able to see content you share with your Public audience or on your Timeline mutual friend, as well as in publications where this person is tagged. Facebook doesn't notify your friends when you add them to the restricted visibility list.
- Blocking users- If you block someone, that person will no longer be able to see content posted to your Timeline, tag you, invite you to events or groups, or start texting or friending you.
- Message blocking- You can block messages and video calls from any user, but note that in this case this person also won't be able to contact you through the Messenger app.
- Blocking App Invitations- Here you can enter the names of friends whose invitations you want to block (all subsequent application requests from this person will be automatically ignored). In order to block invitations coming to you from one of your friends, click the "Ignore all offers from this friend" button under the last request.
- Blocking event invitations- Here you can also enter the names of friends whose invitations you are pretty fed up with. If you block such an invitation from anyone at least once, then all future invitations to events from this friend will be automatically ignored.
- Application Lock- If you block or delete an app or game in the App Center or app settings, they will no longer be able to access any information about you. However, if you have specified in the application or game your email address, it will still be able to send you messages to it. If you do not wish to receive these communications, please click on the "Unsubscribe" link in the email you received from him (usually the link is at the bottom).
- Blocking Pages- If you block a Page, that Page will no longer interact with your posts, like things, or reply to your comments.
Language and face recognition settings
On the tab Language setting you can set in which language you would like to use Facebook, which language you prefer to translate the news into, which languages you understand and from which languages you need machine translation:
It is also possible to publish in several languages so that you can be understood large quantity of people.
On the tab, you can allow or block recognition in photos or videos in Facebook posts:
To recognize you in a photo or video, the system analyzes your profile photo, as well as photos and videos where you are tagged. This feature allows you to be found in other photos and videos, which provides a number of additional conveniences.
You can also on any photo, by hovering the mouse cursor over a person, recognize him, noting who he is.
Setting up text and sound notifications
The title of the tab speaks for itself:
You won't be able to completely turn off notifications, but you can customize their display and theme:
- Setting up Facebook notifications

Mobile settings
When registering an account, you entered your number mobile phone that will be displayed on this tab. Here you can remove it (I don’t recommend it, because FB after some time may request entry by mobile phone, as a result, unnecessary difficulties may arise with entering the social network).
You can also add another mobile phone number here and confirm it in the corresponding window by entering the confirmation code that will be sent to you by SMS.
If you have lost your phone, tap Sign Out on Phone to prevent other people from using your Facebook account.
After activation Facebook app for mobile phones can send SMS messages to your phone. You will be able to receive notifications for friend requests, new messages, wall posts, and friend status changes.
You can also change your status, look up your friends' phone numbers, or upload photos and videos from your phone.
Public publishing filters and tools
Let's see what we can configure on the next tab, which is located in the "Chronicle" section:
- Who can follow me- subscribers see your publications in the News Feed (just like you, if they are subscribed to). Friends follow your posts by default, but you can also allow people you're not friends with to follow your public posts.
- Who can comment on my posts- choose who is allowed to comment on your posts, but remember that in addition to the people selected here, all people who have been tagged in the post and their friends will also be able to comment.
- Public post notifications- you can get notified when someone who is not your friend subscribes to your updates, they are published, commented or liked publications available to everyone.
Just below there is a feature that allows you to see how other people or a specific friend see your profile. Attention! Stuff you hide from your timeline still appears in News Feed, search, and other areas of Facebook.
Video settings
In the "Timeline" section, you can configure the display of videos in your Feed:

- Video autoplay- These settings are used only on the Facebook website (they can be turned on or off). Use this guide to change the settings for your mobile application Facebook.
In the mobile app, things are a little different. Videos require more data than other posts, and as a result, your mobile data plan may be impacted. In the settings, you can choose one of three options for displaying videos:
- AT mobile network and over Wi-Fi- Videos will play automatically using internet connection and mobile data. The amount of data usage depends on the time you spent watching this video.
- Wi-Fi only- The video will be shown automatically only when your phone is connected to a Wi-Fi network.

- Subtitle Sample- here you can adjust the background color, its opacity, text color and size.
On your page, you can set up the display of sections, i.e. what you want to have at your fingertips. Move the mouse cursor to the "More" tab and select from the drop-down list:
In the window that opens, uncheck those sections that you are not very interested in (fitness, books, sports, TV shows, etc.). Some stories from hidden sections can still be seen on your Timeline, News Feed, and elsewhere on Facebook. mouse you can drag sections, swapping them (put the more important ones higher, for example).
The sections selected and installed in the order you need will be on the same “More” button, above the “Partition Management” (see the screenshot above).

Let's say it comes New Year and many friends congratulated you. Your entire page was filled with New Year's cards and congratulations (but from your publications the trace has caught a cold). For this, there is a button "Hide from the chronicle" - your page will be cleared of the holiday, and friends who congratulated you will continue to be marked on New Year's card- and you feel good, and your friend is pleased!

Now we will look at what and how you can do in the “Friends” tab, what settings to make in it and how to find those with whom you want to share everything and everything.
We go to the "Friends" tab (its location is shown in the screenshot above) and we see that we have 11 friend requests:
By clicking on the avatar of a person who asks us to be friends, we can view brief information about him (how old is he, where does he live, where does he study/work, what are his hobbies, etc. - if, of course, he filled out his profile with such information) and decide whether to add this person as a friend. Accordingly, press either Confirm, or Delete Request for friendship.

Create a post on my Facebook page
On our page there is such a window for creating a publication:

Click "Create". After that, your friends will receive an invitation to join the group you created.
How to follow a profile or Page
By subscribing to a person, we see the publications created by him in our News Feed. By adding friends, we automatically subscribe to their news (publications). We can also subscribe to the publications of people who, as such, are not very interesting to us, but their publications (Pages) are another matter.
In addition, we can allow those who are not our friends to subscribe to our publications, but want to see our publications in their News Feed.
We can also follow the Pages of some companies, organizations, brands (for example, we can follow) and people who are not on your Facebook friends list, but which anyone can follow.
If you "Like" a Page, you will automatically subscribe to it:
If a Page has a gray checkmark, it means that Facebook has verified the identity of that company or organization's Page:
If the blue label is assigned, Facebook has verified the authenticity of the Page or profile of this public figure or brand.
