Facebook referral traffic are the visits that comes the facebook app or facebook web.
By default, Google Analytics sees people coming to your website from Facebook as a referral, which is an inbound link from another website. This is the case for people finding your content on the Facebook app and the Facebook website.

When someone clicks a link on a website or social network and is then taken to another site, tracking software, such as Google Analytics or HubSpot, counts that visitor as referral traffic.
