Facebook uses an algorithm called "Edgerank" to determine what posts users see in their News Feed. Edgerank considers factors like the type of relationship between the user and the person who posted, how often the user interacts with the poster, and the type of content posted. Understanding Edgerank can help businesses and individuals get their messages seen by more people on Facebook.
