Summary
Facebook is updating News Feed ranking to prioritize posts that inspire conversations and meaningful interactions between people, such as posts seeking advice or prompting discussion. This change will reduce the visibility of public content from publishers and businesses, potentially decreasing Page reach, video watch time, and referral traffic. The impact varies based on content type and user engagement; Pages generating conversation will see less effect.
Users can use 'See First' to prioritize favorite Pages. Engagement-bait posts will be demoted.

AppsFlyerCross-channel marketing analytics: how it works in 2026
Cross-channel marketing analytics isn't about putting Meta, Google, and TikTok numbers side by side—they often double-count the same customer journey. Fragmented identity is the real culprit; without a first-party Customer User ID, attribution measures platform credit, not customer value. The article explains that deduplicating conversions across mobile, web, and CTV can lift attributed revenue by 30–60% and improve ROAS by 20%. It walks through attribution models, warns against platform-native analytics, and advises using an independent MMP for true cross-channel measurement. Ad ops takeaway: fix identity resolution first, because AI-driven optimization and budget allocation depend on trustworthy, deduplicated data.

Marketers can reuse existing UA creative instead of producing TV ads. QR codes drive direct response, but halo effects often matter more. Start with small, additive test budgets and measure assists/incrementality to understand true impact. CTV offers a way to find incremental users and diversify beyond paid social.
AppsFlyerFive marketing lessons from football’s biggest tournament
Mobile engagement during the football tournament was fragmented, not continuous, with spikes lasting ~3 minutes around goals and pauses. Purchases peaked at halftime, not during play. Emotional stakes drove higher engagement than audience size—the third-place match outperformed the final (+21.7% vs +6.3% lift). Local factors (regulation, payment infrastructure, routines) caused market-specific behaviors. The customer journey continues post-match, requiring measurement beyond live events. Ad ops should align campaigns with attention patterns, optimize for local nuances, and track the full funnel.
