How do I turn on notifications when someone posts on Facebook?
For a personal profile, when you visit the user’s page, you will see a few buttons up on their cover photo. One of them confirms that you’re friends with that person. If you hover over that button, one of the options will be “get notifications.” Click this and make sure it’s checked.

Why do I get notifications when certain friends post?
Facebook notifies you when a friends post based on how close it thinks you are to them. It sometimes uses how often you talk, view their post or how often both of your locations are close to one another.
Why do I get Facebook notifications for one person?
I suggest you use the Puffin Browser. Go to the page of your friend you want to turn notifications off. They’re most likely marked as “close friend” which automatically turns on their notifications (notice it’s checked here). Simply set them to Acquaintance.
