Is Facebook Expanding Its Test of Video Cover Images for Pages?

The test first surfaced in April on the Facebook page for Netflix drama Narcos

Facebook confirmed in April that it was testing the ability for pages to upload videos to serve as cover images, and its test group appears to be expanding.

Facebook had not yet responded to a request for comment at the time of this post.

Flixel Photos marketing manager Cassandra King shared the following tips for page administrators who gain access to the feature in a blog post:
