Are you annoyed with the Facebook Sponsored Page Posts?

Are you getting too many Sponsored Posts? 

Here's how you can hide Facebook Sponsored Page Posts from your news feed!

Facebook sponsored or suggested page posts are a type of ad to increase Fan Page likes and interaction. Admins/ Users have to pay to sponsor these type of posts shown in other users' news feed. This sponsored stuff is really annoying. The bad aspect of sponsored posts is that there huge increase in these type of posts these days as everyone wants to increase fans/audience of their business/Company/Products pages to grow audience and interaction. These sponsored posts disturb our natural interaction and friends' posts.
