Hi guys, my FB business page went from typically getting 1.5k-3k+ shares per post to maybe 50 shares now if I'm lucky... This all happened on September 20th.

I'm not sure why this has happened. FB says my "Page Health" is without violations. When I clcik on the "Shares" the pop up shows me who shared the post, but is seems like those shared posts are not getting seen by the sharers friends as they have no likes or comments as they did before the sharp decline...

I'm basically down 89% across the board and I have no idea why. Any suggestions?

Thank you all in advance

welcome to WebmasterWorld [webmasterworld.com], mattymbras!

it's possible this is a result or side effect of facebook's misinformation reduction campaign, which was implemented at about the same time:

Hmmm maybe, would that show up on the Page Quality section? Because it says I have no violations or restrictions

But this might be the case. I don't post anything about the election or politics on my page but my followers are very politically oriented
