How does Nudge track Facebook Shares
- Shares, likes and comments all count towards the total count on the Facebook Button.
NOTE: Nudge currently only reports on the Likes and Shares in the dashboard.
- Facebook will only count a share if the dialog box is not removed when posting. If the digalog box is removed, it will be classed as a "regular post" and therefor the share count for that link will not increase.
- The image displayed in the share dialog can be removed as long as the link text and link stays present. This will class it as a "share post" still and not a "regular post".
- If a url is shared and people "like" the "share post", the button count for that url will increase. eg 1 share + 20 likes = 21 on the FB button count.
- If a url is shared, people like it and the share is later removed, the button count will only retain the share not the likes. eg If 1 share with 20 likes is deleted, the FB button count would now only show 1. The likes would be lost.
- If a url is shared privately in a chat message, that will not count as a share.
