Forget the old conventional wisdom that most page posts on Facebook contain images and think links, at least in terms of volume.

Social media analytics provider Quintly studied some 100,000 pages and more than 8 million posts between June 2014 and June 2015, finding that posts containing links accounted for 45.23 percent of total volume, edging photo posts, at 43.64 percent.
