If you&#8217;re posting a story that&#8217;s open to everyone, the people who follow you are also able to see it. The Other Viewers category in your Facebook story is labeled as such. However, you can&#8217;t see who these people are. If you&#8217;re unsure who these people are, read on to learn more.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Change_privacy_settings_to_prevent_Other_Viewers_from_showing_up_on_your_story\"><\/span>Change privacy settings to prevent &#8220;Other Viewers&#8221; from showing up on your story<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Facebook stories allow you to share your life with the people closest to you. Unfortunately, sometimes they also attract unwanted attention. People in the &#8220;Other Viewers&#8221; section of your story may stalk or harass you, or worse. To prevent these people from seeing your story, change the privacy setting to &#8220;Friends only.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Facebook has a built-in way of identifying who has viewed your story. By default, stories are visible to friends only, but you can prevent &#8220;Other Viewers&#8221; from viewing your story. If you are uncomfortable with the idea of strangers reading your story, you can change the privacy settings so that only friends can view your story. You can also hide comments left by &#8220;Other Viewers&#8221; if you want to remain anonymous.<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve made these changes, your story will no longer show &#8220;Other Viewers&#8221; in the &#8220;Other Viewers&#8221; section. Using the Custom privacy setting, you can control who can see your story. The custom privacy setting is best for your story since it will allow only selected friends to view your story. This option isn&#8217;t available on Facebook&#8217;s website, but it&#8217;s the only one that&#8217;s available in the Facebook app.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Checking_engagement\"><\/span>Checking engagement<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To determine how engaged your story is, check out the number of unique views. The average number of views depends on the size of your potential audience. Generally speaking, if you share your story publicly, you will get more views than if you share it with your FB friends only. Also, check out the number of people who have discarded your story. This will tell you how engaged your story is and how much effort you should be putting into making it better.<\/p>\n<p>If you have a Facebook page, you can add CTA buttons to encourage viewers to go to a specific page. You can also customize the buttons to share the story with your friends. In addition to that, you can save your story to your device and share it to your followers&#8217; News Feed. To improve the engagement of your Facebook story, you can test a few different posts on it. If you have too many, users might lose interest and unfollow.<\/p>\n<p>When it comes to making a Facebook story, you don&#8217;t necessarily need to make it visually stunning or use professional video editing software. All you need are a few tips to increase the number of views. First of all, you should understand the goals and interests of your audience. After all, they&#8217;re probably looking for stories on Facebook, right? Secondly, they like to consume content from public figures and brands, which is why they want to stay up-to-date with the latest news.<\/p>\n<p> <iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/jweRlNlAj8s\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"547\" height=\"306\" style=\"margin:0px auto; display: block;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can You See Who Views Your Facebook Story?
