Pinterest and Facebook Telling YOU What to See

I'm hear to share with you a little of frustration as a blogger and to share with you about how you can make sure you are seeing what you want to see via your social media. Maybe you don't even like social media...well, that's fine. But, it's an important way for me to let many of you know new things or share older posts that you may not know about, etc. Pinterest has now caught on to the ways of Facebook and are giving you a "smart feed". In my opinion, it's not so smart! So, let me show you how you can follow on Pinterest and Facebook and be SURE you are seeing what is posted from those you like or follow.


Do you realize that you don't actually see the people you want to follow on Pinterest and Facebook? Well, here's how YOU can see them instead of having that decision made for you :: OrganizingMadeFun.com


1. Head over to Pinterest and follow me there :)


Follow Organizing Made Fun on Pinterest :: OrganizingMadeFun.com

2. Next, go to your profile page and click on the little gear to the right. 


Follow Organizing Made Fun on Pinterest :: OrganizingMadeFun.com

3. Next, go to Personalization. You'll see that it is automatically marked "YES" for them showing what is in your feed.

4. Click on "NO" and then save the settings and now you'll see all your favorite people!

**POST UPDATE:  It seems this doesn't completely take the related pins away, however, if you click on the "thumb's down" symbol, that seems eliminate them altogether. Doing the two will help you keep your feed YOUR feed.**
For Facebook settings: 

1. Go to Organizing Made Fun's page:

2. Click on "like" and then make sure you are "following" and get notifications. This will ensure you actually see my posts and anyone else who you want to see.

It's frustrating that you like or follow a page or person because you want to and then you don't actually get to see what they post. Right? I'm frustrated that I can't reach YOU. I post great posts that I found on organizing on Pinterest that I know you would LOVE to see! And now, you'll be able to see mine and not all the other stuff from people you don't actually follow! Are you on Facebook or Pinterest?
