AJ+ has always focused on telling stories and creating content that is tailored for each platform we are on and Facebook is no exception. The AJ+ experience has truly excelled on Facebook and we plan to maintain that success for the foreseeable future.“

Since its official launch in 2014, AJ+ has grown its audience to over 3.5 million fans on Facebook. AJ+ videos regularly reach far beyond their core audience due to the emotional resonance they have with their audience. In 2015, AJ+ videos received over 2.2 billion views, 134 million engagements, and a total reach of 7.4 billion. The reception to AJ+ content has been so strong on Facebook that AJ+ recently expanded to include AJ+ Español and AJ+ Arabic, which are quickly garnering engaged fan bases as well.
