Software engineer Varun Kacholia wrote in the company’s blog post, Facebook first needed to define ‘high-quality content. “Every day people see content from millions of Pages on Facebook in their News Feeds,” Facebook software engineer Varun Kacholia wrote in a blog post. “Our goal is to show the right content to the right people at the right time so they don’t miss the stories that are important to them. As part of that, we want to make sure that the best quality content is being produced, surfaced, and shared.”
Facebook surveyed thousands of users about how Facebook users deem ‘high-quality content. Folding all the surveyed responses into a new machine-learning system that was integrated with the master algorithm.
Over a thousand different factors including the quality of the page’s other content and the level of competition on the profile are considered to determine whether a post is of high-quality content or not.
According to the official blog Facebook, it has tested the new algorithm on a small segment of users and the new algorithm will be rolled out over the next few weeks to users on both desktop and mobile.
