Abstract
A social networking system receives from a member an item for sharing on the social networking system. The system determines whether the item for sharing is a first sharing for the member or whether the member has not shared an item for a time period that transgresses a threshold. When the item for sharing is a first sharing or a sharing that transgresses the threshold, the system marks the item for a promotion in a feed of another member of the social networking system.
