15Monday, September 17, 12Affinity is dependent on a user's relationship with an object in the news feed. For example, if you don’t interact with a page very frequently or you rarely click on links on an old high school classmate’s profile, their news updates will appear in your newsfeed less frequently than someone you might interact with everyday, such as your sister or best friend.
This actually impacts the return of your page in the search, too.Do you frequently interact with the person or page? Have your friends been interacting with the person or page’s status?
