Just wondering if Facebook's Branded Content Policy will apply to affiliate marketers who are pushing other people's products via their Facebook page or if it's more about paid reviews, sponsorships, paid endorsements - such as where one site/page owner pays another to endorse them via the Facebook page.
According to Facebook, branded content is defined in the following way:
Branded content on Pages is defined as content originating from a Page owner that features third party products, brands, or sponsors that are different from the Page owner.

I think facebook wants to be seen in a different light, like a higher authority similar to amazon or ebay. Knocking out affiliates and their pages would probably be a step in the direction of this, but who actually can figure out why any of the major websites do what they do. If facebook is doing this, is it reasonable to assume that they may be coming out with a platform similar to amazon and ebay to take over that kind of market? If they were to do this they would easily become one of the biggest buying and selling platforms in the world since they already have billions of people with facebook accounts.
In the end, I think this is targeting affiliates in order for facebook to possibly build their own platform later on. But I could be completely wrond lol
Thanks,
Razzy I feel like this is targeting affiliates pretty hard. When they say "Third party products" it's just an easy way of saying "Affiliates selling other peoples stuff online".
