Facebook ? - Can you tell if someone has looked at your page?
Just wondering....can you tell if someone looks at your page? Such as if someone is looking for you and they are on facebook (but not your friend) and then was searching for you?
I guess I am asking if you can tell if your page was viewed and by whom.

Re: Facebook ? - Can you tell if someone has looked at your page?
I remember a while back people were posting things that supposedly told you who viewed your profile, how often, etc. I never clicked on them though becuase I assumed it was some type of virus or spam. I don't know if there's a real way to tell. We need a teenager to come on here and tell us, they're bound to know!

Nope. No matter how many of those "Wow! I can't believe who I found out is viewing my page!" applications they make.

No, Facebook does not provide a functionality that enables you to track who is viewing your profile (timeline), or parts of your profile (timeline), such as your photos. Third party applications also cannot provide this functionality. Applications that claim to give you this ability will be removed from Facebook for violating policy.

No, Facebook currently does not provide an application that allows users to track profile (timeline) views or statistics on the views of any specific user content. Third party developers, however, may offer applications that provide some of this functionality. Please keep a few things in mind for these applications:
Applications CANNOT track profile (timeline) visits for users who simply go to another person's profile (timeline); Facebook has made this technically impossible.
In order to be tracked by an application, you will need to specifically agree to allow the application to track your actions.
Adding an application that provides this functionality is purely optional. If you do not want to participate, please do not add the application to your account

It's a good thing they don't or I would have been busted for a lot of FB stalking.

Re: Facebook ? - Can you tell if someone has looked at your page?
I know it says technically you can't tell who's looking at you, but I think that's a load of BS. Several people I haven't spoken to in years who are not friends of friends have popped up in the upper right corner as "suggested" friends. How would they be linked to me if they weren't looking me up?

I think the "suggested friends" thing comes from if you have more than one mutual friends. If you click it, you can see basically everyone that you have friends in common with. That was my impression of that function, anyway.

and if you have no friends in common... work place, neighborhood, where you grew up, other likes will also make them a suggestable person...
just because they show them as a suggestion doenst mean they are linked to you in anyway... my profile is not searchable and i get suggested friends all the time...

I have nothing in my profile...no likes or anything. There is nothing to link me to these people...not locations, or schools, or likes, or mutual friends...I find that too coincidental.

Re: Facebook ? - Can you tell if someone has looked at your page?
The only thing in there is that I'm female and my birthdate, cause I think it required that I enter them when I signed up, but I have both listed as do not show. Absolutely nothing else.

Re: Facebook ? - Can you tell if someone has looked at your page?
Here is my theory: all those people who suddenly start showing up on the right of your page as people you may know? They all looked at your page!

Re: Facebook ? - Can you tell if someone has looked at your page?
I'm gonna say no, facebook just knows. The time we figured this out was when DH and I signed my parents up to fb. Now they are not members of anything on the internet, they dont have any friends or family email addresses saved in their email contacts and in their first name portion I used both their names. When it came to the step of friend suggestions it had linked them to so many people that they knew and it linked them to family in a different country who I KNOW would not know to look for them. Its very weird...but im callin it a big brother thing.
