Facebook Platform allows marketers to deliver word of mouth at scale. By creating an app on Facebook or
on your website, you have the opportunity to deeply integrate with the core functionalities of the Facebook
Platform to create a social experience that will get people engaged and talking about you to their friends.
You can then make sure that more of your app users’ friends will see these stories coming from your app
using Sponsored Stories. Every time someone publishes a story from your app to his friends’ News Feed (via
the Feed dialog for example), you can make sure that more of his friends will see this story by creating an
App Share Sponsored Story campaign. Similarly, if someone simply uses your app at least twice of for more
than 10 minutes in the last month, you can make sure that more of his friends discover a story about it by
creating an App Used Sponsored Story campaign*.
You can distribute your app across different placements both on and off Facebook, depending on your app
experience and objectives. If you plan to distribute your app across several placements, we encourage you to
use the same app (and Application ID) and simply specify several locations for your app.
