  • 0

I know that the count that is shown by the Like button social plugin is made up of:

  • The number of likes of this URL
  • The number of shares of this URL
    (this includes copy/pasting a link back to Facebook)
  • The number of
    likes and comments on stories on Facebook about this URL
  • The number of inbox messages containing this URL as an attachment.

Does anyone know for certain if the Page like count, as accessible from this kind of call, is also made up of the above rules or is it a pure Like count only (i.e. only counts people clicking the Like button of the Page)?

Cheers!

    For a Page, it’s just the Like count that’s displayed – that other list is for URLs in your website/app
