It was to be expected and in part is a logical step considering that nobody pays absolutely make use of Facebook. Facebook, Facebook Live live video relay service is available and in operation since several months. In recent weeks they have eliminated time restrictions that not become it the ideal application to perform long broadcasts. Since the launch of this new service, the company has had to expand the number of servers intended for this new feature so that the service offered by the social network does not work as so far.
The company’s Mark Zuckerberg has begun to perform the first tests by adding advertising to YouTube in the broadcast-style by users, although at the moment it is in beta. But retransmissions banner ads will not only be displayed but that Facebook has planned cuts in reproduction for issue advertising, something that will not make no grace to those who engage in broadcast content streaming through Facebook.
Ads that they would begin to show from five min, may be issued at any time during playback and will have a maximum duration each ad by 15 seconds. To avoid having problems with those responsible for the broadcast, you can select the type of content displayed in its broadcasts. Also you can disable them if the inclusion of ads in the retransmission interferes with the development of the same.
What we don’t know is whether Facebook will give the possibility to the content creators, be able to collect a part by advertising displayed during their broadcasts, as it allows YouTube to try and encourage the use of Facebook Live instead of Twitter Periscope, which at the moment has not reported on the possibility of including ads in its broadcasts.
