Facebook is testing a spam filter for posts to the walls of Pages. It appears as separate wall tab which is only visible to admins, the filter automatically removes posts to the Page’s wall which are likely to be spam. These include those that link to spammy websites and requests for users to Like, install, or send a friend request to a specific Page, app, or profile.

A big problem for Pages is that in order to allow open discussion and increase engagement, admins have to allow those who Like the Page to post to its wall. However, this gives spammers the opportunity to damage the perception of a Page by filling it with malicious or profiteering links or objectionable content. This can cause users to Unlike the Page or stop engaging in conversation there.

If you go under “edit page” then “manage permissions” there is a setting for it! Now when you see a post that you want to delete you can mark it as spam~ Just another new Facebook option…

What is your opinion of this newest option?
