The like button is represented by a small thumb up icon, which when you tap or click on it would notify the user who posted the content that you “Liked” their post, also people who can see the post can also see how many likes have been made to the post. “Likes” isn’t reserved for Facebook posts but also applies to Facebook pages.
Once a Facebook page is liked, automatically information from that page would appear on the timeline of the user who liked it and would also be registered in their profile that they like that page. However, in this article, the focus is on deleting the likes made on Facebook posts.
