Conclusion,

The social network continues to grow and has had an important impact, either from the protection of personal data, to the use and manipulation of it, all this leads to Facebook taking and making significant changes in its algorithm to create a friendly environment and safe for its users.

Facebook has carried out very accurate strategies at a commercial level, where it seeks to create an ecosystem that studies, and feeds on the interactions made by users on its various platforms, this has Instagram , WhatsApp and FB Messenger.

One of the great dilemmas that most users have is about the new social network TikTok and if it is capable of surpassing Facebook, it is true that TikTok is an interesting social network that has shaken and changed the way of presenting content, but, It is a social network focused on young people, it must be able to adapt to any technological generation and the new steps of Facebook must also be evaluated.

And if I were you, I do not worry about the social network or the means of communication, but to evaluate THE BEHAVIOR OF THE USERS, what they share, what they need to know and what they consider interesting. Focus, even if it is 1 hour a day, in evaluating how your users who like to read or what they dislike behave, everything is valid, only if you want to create a true experience for the customer.
