Facebook Pages Goes Live
Img: TheNextWeb |
To ensure that a Page's video content is easy to view, Facebook is creating a permalink URL. Clicking the link will access the current live-stream and display past live-streams and any other videos connected to the Page. Additionally, comments can be pinned to the bottom of live-streams.
Not only will Pages be able to lend a more personal touch with the addition of live-streams, tools are available to foster engagement.
- Page admins can set Live contributors, allowing multiple Facebook account holders to broadcast for a Page.
- Lightweight insights are available for Pages with 5,000 followers or more:
- Total minutes viewed
- Total number of views
- Total engagement (reactions, comments and shares)
- Aggregated insights will accompany videos at weeklong, monthlong, and two-month periods. However, this feature is only available to those using Facebook's "Mentions" app, primarily celebrities and public figures.

In basic terms, Pages is a tool for brands, businesses, and public figures to create an online presence. A Page can be managed by multiple account holders, unlike a normal profile which is controlled by one person. Liking a Page will yield updates displayed on a person's News Feed and alerts to live-streams.
