Facebook‘s Subscribe option allows you to share certain content with the wider public ? without having to compromise your privacy.

Through the
Subscribe function, you can post public updates you don’t mind sharing with the world, but keep other, more personal updates private to your friends and family.

At the moment, the option to allow subscribers is purely opt-in, so here we show you how to enable and manage this functionality.
