People told the Facebook that they want less promotional contents and wants News feed posts updates from the friends and pages they really liked it. After the users survey Facebook dug inside it and found that There is no control over the too much promotional page posts. People likes the pages but there is no control how they can stop the too much promotion which forces the users to products or downloads page. Now Facebook is going to bring content control in the promotional posts so that users can see only they really loved to see.
