Facebook Social Ads

There are only 2 hard parts to cashing in big with facebook ads:

1) making a good ad that will get lots of clicks
This is extremely important because the higher your CTR, the lower you set your bid and the less money you spend per click. Right now I have an ad that I'm paying 4 cents a click for.
2) getting it approved
Facebook got wise to zip submits and other scammy type offers a while ago so you will have to get creative with this one. Also, human error plays a big role in this so you will plenty of times submit the same ad twice and have it approved the second time. If you're really running into a brick wall on this one, check my blog for some creative ways to get ads approved

At the end of the day, though, it costs $0 to set up a new ad and see if it works. I was getting really frustrated when I couldn't get any ads approved and felt like I was wasting my time and money, until I realized I wasn't losing any money by trying different ads. Think about those idiots who pay millions for a superbowl ad with no idea if it will convert for them in the end. We don't have this problem.

Take a line from wsmith...throw a bunch of shit at the wall and see what sticks.

You're probably looking at the main page and the last 24 hours. Click your campaign?
 
i was wondering the same thing...he was a regular here, a good guy and very involved in all FB convo's then just vanished a few weeks ago...hope all is ok with him ( hopefully the video he posted of himself smoking didn't get him raided or anything :rasta: ... jk)

as most of us internet vet's know it happens with people all the time on boards tho...guys either lose interest or move onto something else, look back to last year at this time on WF and it's a different group of people altogether

How in the shit do you tell when your ad has been reviewed?
I created one like 45 minutes ago and still don't have any impressions...

I'm WAY too impatient for this crap...
lol
 
The ads I get approved don't get any clicks well maybe like 10-15, but the ads that would possibly get more clicks they don't get approved damn you to hell facebook!:2gunsfiring_v1:
 
Well fuck. I just found out it was denied.
It wont tell me why, but Im sure its bullshit. The offer I had up didnt ask for any information or anything...

Stupid FB.

Im gonna go back to robbing banks and selling kids oregeno.
 
I've managed to make a whopping $15 from FB so far! WOOP! (Spent $20 = lol)

Managed to get myself up to a 0.09% CTR, but it went to a non-converting page. /gutted.

But as Nicky says, it takes $0 to test an ad, so i'm gonna keep plugging away until i hit the Golden Goose in the face.
 
My ads are getting reviewed at mock speed time now. Has anyone else noticed this? I almost wasn't ready for it. I always up my CPC much more than usual for the first run through. And then just adjust it accordingly. Usually I can bank on it taking about 2 hours to get approved. Last night I came back 20 minutes later and both were approved and I had already run through 30 bucks..doh!
