Facebook Social Ads

Well it depends a lot on the market.

One of my ads with very good CTR has a limited audience. I can't get decent impressions bidding at $0.20.

Instead what I do is I jack the bids up...like up to $2.00. My cpc goes up a little bit, but I'm getting a lot of impressions compared to before. Guys that don't have has high CTR / CPC get pushed out because Facebook rather give the impressions to some guy with really high CTR/ really high bids.

It's pretty much my strategy for Facebook. I sacrifice a little ROI for more volume since I'm on weekly payments. Facebook is essentially bidding for the impressions. It's all about testing/tracking your progress. I'd love to bid .20 and get massive impressions but it doesn't work that way.

Hmm.. interesting but the only sacrifice is the ROI
 


I just noticed an ad on the right hand side of the home page instead of on the left.. they must be experimenting with different placement.
 
Sorry to interrupt here about CTR stuff, but I just have a really quick question about FB ads.

I am doing dating ads on facebook, but I am worried that I might be violated copyright laws by using girl pictures of models I find on google and other sites.

I see, however, other people using girl pictures they don't "own" for their dating ads of FB, so can one you Enlightened ones give me some advise?
 
yea. at first i also thought the dating ads would be killer but the CTR is actually killing me.

The facebook apps are actually smart in doing this new ad feature but i dont like how it changes every week. I'll wait till theyre finally done.
 
Does not hurt ROI to badly. I Got .5CTR and bidding 51cents to get impressions but do to the good CTR they only charge me 12cents a click.

oh really? :bowdown: idk it seems to me that i have an awesome CTR but my CPC is still high for the CTR
 
Does split testing on Facebook hurt your campaign?

I was getting plenty of impressions and clicks for an ad I was running, so I decided to create a similar ad so I can increase my impressions instead of bumping up my bid on the orginal campaign. However, as soon as I did this I stopped getting impressions on the original as well as new ad. Is this because I'm competing with myself or maybe facebook doesn't like having users run two similar ads?

The new ad targeted the exact same demographic, which is why I'm thinking I shot myself in the foot by competing two ads?
 
how does facebook count clicks?

i was looking at my billing info and i see on 1 campaign - the billing screen shows i had 143 clicks while when i click on the link to get more detail on the actual campaign - it only shows 19 clicks. :confused:
 
My Hypothesis:

Alright so i called Facebook asking for Sales Support cause these people ask me for the same info 10x after 10 emails of me providing them the info and it's getting annoying cause they can not properly read.

so i call and ask for sales support - she said i need to know a name of the person - so i check my email and see Rose - i told her i dont have a last name - she checks her directory and finds no Rose. Okay fine - i asked for Gaston - she comes back after putting me on hold and says there's no Gaston. I asked her then who runs the sale support for facebook and she's like idk?

SO i came to the conclusion (albeit it may not be accruate) that they outsource their sales inquiry to another company and the names such as Rose, Gaston etc. are stage names. Their customer support FTL. Their reading comprenhension skills FTL.

btw is there a way i can sign on to 2 facebook accounts the same time?

i hate signing off one account to go check my real account - blah!
 
Does anyone here advertise with 2 accounts, is there a problem with this? Or does anyone have an account with over $1k daily limit? It seems like they would want as much money as possible but i guess not...
 
Yes I have an account over 1K daily. If you message them to ask for an increase they will do it no problem.
 
If you click on the ? next to your daily limit there will be a contact us page. If you write them a message first they increase it to 1250 then to 1500 .. etc.
