Facebook Post Share Audience Set To 'Friends' By Default For New Users

Facebook social media has wide range of audience from all around the world and being a part of this audience, one must make your sure of its privacy settings. A Facebook account having 2 thousands friends is much likely to consider about what to post and what not to post as compare to a account having 20 friends who are trustworthy. Thats why Facebook Share audience settings came into existence where users can set the post audience according to their need which includes "Public", "Friends", "Only Me" and "Custom". Majority Facebook users set their share setting as "Friends" because they don't want there post to be seen by outsider. Taking this scenario into consideration, Facebook has now set the share audience as " Friends" by default for new users who sign up for Facebook.

All the new users who sign up for Facebook will be reminded of their post share setting, if they want to choose their own post share setting, they can do it otherwise the default share audience will be set to "Friends". Before the setting was set to Public, but many new users are not comfortable with this option and if they are not aware of the customized post setting in Facebook , there audience setting was set to "Public". Now Facebook will show up the reminder for new users on Facebook and guide how to deal with other post sharing settings. Facebook is always ahead in privacy settings for its users, before the social giant launched Anonymous login - where user can decide what permission they want to give to an app before signing in to other websites using Facebook login and now the announcement of the default post sharing setting to "Friends", this is all just to make users feel safe while using Facebook social media.

For the billions of already sign up users , Facebook will roll out a expanded privacy checkup tool which will allow them to customize their information. The tool will inform them about what information is to be kept for friends , public and only me. Although Facebook users who like to set their default settings to public should know that this practice is not good  for some confidential piece of your information to be shared public. Don't worry the coming privacy checkup tool will let you know what to share public and what to kept secret.

Public sharing on Facebook is an essential tool for celebrities, public icons, politicians and business. Facebook is a powerful tool for online promotion if you are using it in a right way and for that scenario , Public sharing is the best.
