Facebook tests News Feed for businesses

SAN FRANCISCO. Facebook is testing a new dedicated News Feed for businesses that will help businesses connect with their customers online and grow more efficiently. For the first time, businesses can engage as their business profile, making tasks like commenting, posting and liking as a business easier.

“Starting in the US, we’re beginning to test a new experience from News Feed where people can tap on topics they’re interested in under posts and ads in Feed, such as beauty, fitness or clothing, and explore content from related businesses,” the company said. With a new dedicated business News Feed, businesses can more easily engage with their communities and find relevant content from other businesses, the company said.
