Facebook Tests New Blue like Button on our blog: How will it affect engagement?

Facebook new Like Button


It was 20 October 2013. According to my daily routine I was surfing the internet, meanwhile my eyes stopped on a news article which was published on a famous blog related to Facebook new like button. The news was “Facebook is testing new blue Like Button”. It was really a good news because the new blue like button was really awesome. The claim was rather given by a small website.


Immediately I opened MS-word and started writing the recent news, cause that’s what I like to do. That time I thought that it’ll be awesome if my blog gets the new like button. I know Facebook is testing such a type of button and will be open for all in future. Thinking so I completed my article and published it and the title was “Facebook is testing new Blue like Button: Possible to Launch”. You can read my five day old news on, “Facebook New Blue Like Button”.  


Today 25 Oct 2013, after completing my college activity I came to my room and checked my blog, everything was pretty normal. Around 7:00PM according to IST (Indian standard time) I opened my blog and saw that, my blog had received new Facebook Blue Like Button. It was really surprising for me because five day back when I saw this, I read all comments in famous blogs and communities and found no one had seen this change on their websites and Blogs. Some were saying that “This is a rumour” while some was saying “How can we believe? Because we haven’t seen any such activity”. They are correct on their part because, we didn’t accept the thing without seeing the proof with our own eyes.

Take a look


So I am sharing with you what I saw and here I have attached two pics, one having the New Facebook blue like button other one with the simple old button. This button was only for one to two minutes. But I can say one thing that the new button was rather awesome.
