After realizing that my website did not contain og tags and that I was missing out on some key statistical information, I quickly added the following tags to each of my articles:
- og:type (article)
I also implemented the newest like button(like + ability to add a description before posting to fb). I am using the iframe version of the button.
Original LIKE count: 526
"id": "http://www.rocksquare.com/Community/FeaturedArtists/692", "shares": 526
Current LIKE count: 60 (from 7/13 to now)
"id": "http://www.RockSquare.com/Community/FeaturedArtists/692", "shares": 60
Should be: 586 Likes
If you look closely at the URL's you will notice that the urls are written differently. One is RockSquare.com & the other is rocksquare.com. For some reason facebook graph can tell the difference and has created two entities. One with 562 shares and one with 60. Is there anyway we can combine these two?
