Facebook’s Pay-to-Promote Posts Feature Has Arrived

We've heard rumblings that Facebook was testing a system called Highlight that would allow people to pay to promote a post, and now obnoxiously enough, it's starting to show up.
Chris Cantalini, who runs a music blog called Gorilla vs. Bear, tweeted that...


he was posting a track by Holy Balm when he was presented with the above prompt. It asked him if he wanted to pay as much as $100 so that just one post, one song, could reach an estimated 39,000 people. For the record, only 37,000 people already Like Gorilla vs. Bear on Facebook.
This is just one instance, and the feature is supposedly not just for brands, but individuals as well, so it means we might be seeing Highlight in more places soon. Now that Facebook's IPO has tanked, perhaps it's looking for some fresh cash.
