When it comes to promoting our blogs on Facebook, there are a number of features you may want to consider within Pages and Groups. There are so many features, in fact, that it may be hard to keep them all straight.
In this one, we thought we'd highlight a few unique features that we use on Facebook Pages and Groups that when combined together create a rather interesting funnel for brand building- starting with getting people to like your page, moving to join a group, and ultimately subscribing to your newsletter.
So let's take a look at some interesting features you may not be aware of!
Note: As with most things, those with larger accounts may see bigger benefits than others with a multi-step funnel. For reference, at the time of writing my Facebook page had 132k followers, Facebook group had 123k members, and my Threads account has approximately 7k followers.

Do you ever scroll through Instagram's main feed and get incredibly furious at the amount of irrelevant content you see pop up as Suggested? Particularly Suggested Reels on your home tab?
You're not alone.
I've personally become quite frustrated seeing recommended-to-me content in my Instagram home feed as opposed to simply seeing content from accounts I opted-in to follow.
Thankfully, there is a way to mute some Suggested posts in your Instagram feed, and you can do it in just a few quick clicks!
Note: This process typically only removes Suggested For You Reels in the Home tab on Instagram. Recommended content in other tabs, like Search, are seemingly unaffected.

We're going to ask you to put your conspiracy theory hat on for a moment because we wanted to dive into a controversial theory that may be a sign of the future of the internet.
Enter the Dead Internet Theory, an interesting conspiracy theory that may actually be on to something.
So grab your tin foil hat, and let's go down the rabbit hole.
- Note: As with all conspiracy theories, do not take this one too seriously.

Ever since the major Google updates of late 2023 and early 2024, SEO experts have been seemingly throwing spaghetti on the wall to try and figure out what factors could have made an impact.
But because of the size of these updates, arguments could be made for trends everywhere. From having a privacy policy, contact page, or having display ads, virtually every best practice was flagged as a possible point of concern at some point.
When nearly everyone was impacted, it is easy to make these leaps.
One argument we saw several times is that sites with ads or aggressive affiliate plays were impacted more than others. While we personally did not see this being a factor as much in our own sites, it did make us curious, particularly around video ads.
So we put together a test to see what would happen if we turned video ads off one of our sites!

If you are looking to grow your Instagram or TikTok, it can feel like spinning your wheels at times. The algorithms are seemingly all over the place. Some accounts can blow up and thrive, while others may not see much movement at all.
For the longest time, I discounted short-form video primarily because I was in the latter category. It wasn't until friends of mine gave me a private lashing over what I was doing wrong that I started to take a strategic approach to how I create my short-form content.
So in this one, I thought I'd break out what I've been doing to grow my presence on these short-form video apps, and inspire some ideas to try in your own content creation.
