#1. "Hide" External Links

If you share a post on Facebook that has an external link, from your blog, Facebook automatically restricts the post so less people see it. Why?

You can even say something like "See link in comment!" in your post.

#2. Utilize New Facebook Features

When Facebook releases new features, they modify their algorithm to allow more people to see the new features activity. An example of this would be the new feature called "Explore Feed". If you share something that is in the explore feed to your wall, more people will see it then if you just go find the same article yourself and share it straight from the web.
