It's about to get a lot easier for creators on Facebook and Instagram to push products to their followers. Meta will now allow creators to include clickable shopping links for products directly in their Reels. Brand partnerships and affiliate links, in which creators earn a portion of sales generated by their recommendations, are central to how creators earn money from Facebook and Instagram. But Meta has limited the ways in which they can direct their followers off-platform. As a result, creators often rely on third-party "link in bio" services for managing links to the stuff they endorse. Now, Meta says it will allow eligible creators to link to up to 30 distinct products in a single Reel. the feature will be available on both Instagram and Facebook, though Facebook creators are limited to tagging products from marketplace partners like Amazon. The change could be a boon for lifestyle creators and others who rely on their followers regularly buying the stuff they recommend. It brings Meta’s apps up to par with TikTok and YouTube Shorts,  » Read More

This article examines the Facebook page of the South African National Defence Force (SANDF) over a twelve-month period (April 2025 – March 2026). Using qualitative content analysis and descriptive engagement assessment, the study evaluates thematic content distribution, temporal posting patterns, and public sentiment. The findings indicate a communication strategy strongly oriented toward ceremonial visibility, institutional legitimacy, and controlled narrative framing. While effective in reinforcing national identity and organisational presence, this approach reveals limited engagement with structural challenges, contributing to persistent negative sentiment within public discourse. Introduction Digital platforms have transformed how military institutions communicate with the public, shifting from one-directional broadcasting to interactive engagement. Social media, particularly Facebook, offers armed forces an opportunity to shape narratives, enhance transparency, and reinforce legitimacy. In South Africa, the SANDF operates within a complex governance environment marked by fiscal constraints, evolving operational demands, and contested public trust.
