2. GUIDE TO THE NEW FACEBOOK QUESTIONS
Facebook added a new feature called Questions, which allows users and pages to ask
questions in a format that makes polls more social and creates opportunities for brand
content to go viral.
Polls are already a popular way to engage fans. Questions are different from polls because
fans may now add their own responses for others to vote upon, making the feature even
more compelling .

• When people answer questions, it shows up on their wall and in their friends’ News Feeds.
This way, their friends can now answer the question too, giving the question the potential
to go viral.
• The original question and subsequent News Feed stories include calls to action to “Follow”
or “Ask Friends,” further increasing the viral potential of the question.
