How to stop unwanted advertisement or content appearing on your Facebook page
You cannot entirely block or turn off sponsored advertisements on Facebook. The ads that
appears on your page depends entirely on what content you and your friends interact with.
This means that frequent liking, commenting or posting on a close friend’s timeline or Page
will drive more content from that account to your feed. Facebook gives you the option to limit
or hide unwanted advertisement content from a person, Page or Group.
To limit unwanted ads appearing on your timeline.
1. Click the down arrow at the top corner of the sponsored ads
2. Click ‘Hide advert‘
3. On the ‘Why don’t you want to see this?’ choose the relevant option
Three ways of reducing unwanted content. First, click the down arrow at the top right corner
of the post and select one of the following three options:-
1. Hide post – this hides a specific post and prompts Facebook to limit content from that
account.
2. Unfollow – this is a subtle way of removing a friend from your News Feed without
unfriendling. You can also unfollow a profile or page by visiting the account, hover your
mouse to Following, select Unfollow or Unfollow this Page.
3. Report post – malicious or offensive content that do not abide by Facebook’s community
standards can be reported.
