Facebook has already taken over the world, gender, age, nationality, and even culture. Due to this diversity, each one is using Facebook according to their needs. A survey that was published recently showed that between six Facebook users, one has never posted a status update, also female status updates lies between 20-25 updates monthly, while men post about 6-8 updates monthly. This survey highlights various people among on this social platform. By using Facebook again and again, you’ll end doing some silly mistakes and you will know that when you provide clear personal information to strangers which will result in negative consequences later. Although social networks have got lots of benefits and advantages, it also has some risks which must be avoided. Below we serve you some tips to ensure privacy and have some good Facebook experience: 1- Avoid accepting coworker’s friend requests: always prevent yourself from mixing your personal life with you practical life by any means; this mostly happens through the social media platforms. You can simply add your coworkers to the friend list by creating a group having all coworkers where you can post topics for discussion mixing your personal life. You can also create another “professional” Facebook account. Away from Facebook, create your own professional LinkedIn profile which will focus on your professional life. 2- Don’t be a victim for tricks: There are tons of Facebook fake posts where most people fall a victim for where they like or share it without knowing the source of the post itself. If you have a friend who shared a fake post, the best thing to do is posting a reply comment to correct this wrong information in it. What should I do to prevent myself from being a victim? This is the questions are asking yourself now, Teach yourself to search about any information which supports the information in the post you want to like, comment or share before doing anything. This will make you sure about it. 3- Don’t add anyone you don’t know to your friend list: Due to the differences between people in Facebook society as mentioned before, some people just share their personal lives with anybody who just cares about. This is a catastrophe. Even though, you should think twice before accepting friend request from people you know. If someone you don’t know added you simply ignore and report him as “I don’t know this person”. 4- Avoid being an unpaid product marketer (optional): when someone likes a Facebook ad, it will appear directly in his/her timeline. This will result also in making the advertiser post some content to your news feed. Although it doesn’t work every time but it’s worth trying. 5- Don’t be in being sarcastic: Never leave an impression that says you are a fool!! Because it’s easy to be misunderstood, don’t be sarcastic while leaving comments on someone’s post or pay attention when you are telling a joke on other’s people pages. 6- Be cautious from being tagged in an embarrassing photo: watch out for some embarrassing photos you may found yourself tagged in. you can control in through visiting your privacy settings page. 7- Differentiate between private messages and wall post: some people fall in this fatal mistake where they post a private message through wall posts without knowing that all friends will be able to see it. And this might result in huge problems, so take good care. 8- Adjust your notifications: carrying tons of messages in your inbox with lots of useless notifications can be easily modified by clicking the arrow button next to home page in the right corner window and go to account settings, then select notifications and edit in the e-mail button the option of only notifications about my account.
