Mark iNFOnews as “See First” in Facebook

Facebook has announced changes to prioritize posts from friends and high-quality news sources. When you select a Facebook Page to see first, their posts appear at the top of your News Feed. If you would like to see iNFOnews stories first in you Facebook News Feed here are the instructions for setting that preference. 

ON DESKTOP COMPUTERS

1. Open a desktop web browser and go to the iNFOnews Facebook page that you wish to create the "See first" setting for.

2. Near the top, next to the “Like” button, find the word “Follow” or “Following.” (If it says “Follow,” click it once and it will change to “Following”.)

3. Once you are following the page click the word “Following” and choose “See First.” (You can also choose in this same section to receive Facebook notifications about these posts).

This "See First" setting elevates posts from the chosen pages so that they display at the top of your Facebook feed.
