Title: FB wants higher gates
Post by: rcjordan on March 24, 2015, 01:21:12 PM
There's a headline out there that says FB is in negotiations with 6 major news sources to 'host' their content so users won't have to leave their ecosystem.  Someone asked "what happens to our ad revenue?"

Sounds like they'll be putting ads on it, so you'd need to shell out more to be covered in both the native site and FB?

update:

"Facebook will reportedly earn nothing from ad sales, and instead offer publishers 100 percent of revenue from ads sold via Facebook-hosted pages in exchange for more time spent on its network."
