The title may sound harsh, but the truth is, just like in real life, there are times we no longer want to follow a certain Facebook page’s updates. Some of the reasons may be any of the following:
- The page no longer provides you information that you need or you were hoping to get updated about. This reason may apply for those pages that are no longer updated or were abandoned by their owners for some reason.
- The Facebook page posts topics or messages that you don’t agree with. I’ve had this happen to me a couple of times. That’s why, if you have a Facebook page that’s not political or religious in nature, if you want people to continue following your updates, as much as possible, avoid sharing your thoughts that may upset them or make them want to leave your page.
- The Facebook page has been spamming your feeds with promotions, ads, etc. Well, if the blog, website or the page is related to business, promos or marketing, I would understand. Otherwise, you don’t want to continue receiving spammy feeds on your wall, right? So, you’d want to “unlike” the page as well.
Those are my top 3 reasons for unliking a Facebook page. If you joined a giveaway and one of the requirements is to like a page, unliking it after it’s over is unfair. I suggest you create another account for your contest participations. Some giveaway hosts have started being strict about this, even to a point of disqualifying those who unlike their page or unfollowing them on Twitter when they join next time.
Anyway, this post is about how to unlike Facebook pages. It’s a pretty easy step, really. Here’s how:
Make sure you’re logged into your Facebook account and…

I know, you can actually see the pages you liked through your info page. But, through the link above, you’d get a more organized way to check the Facebook pages you’ve liked. They’re arranged in alphabetical order so it’s easier to go through all of them.
You’d be directed to a page similar to the one pictured below. Just click on the “unlike” button on the right and that’s it.
Don’t laugh at one of the Facebook pages I’m following. 😀 I’ve got tons of them – from TV shows I love, celebrities I admire, movies I’ve seen multiple times, blogs I follow, brands I believe in, artists (from painters, graphics designers, digital designers), online stores (cosmetics, some that offer services like photo booths, floral arrangement, etc) and some that I followed because they post things that make me laugh. 😀 I think I need to clean it up a bit when I have more time.
While you’re at it, I hope you’d want to like my blogs’ Facebook pages: 😉
