Here are my thoughts on facebook ads.

First off, I'd say around 95% of my ads get approved. My ads are also getting approved very fast, always within an hour, usually within 15 minutes. My ads get approved the fastest from like 5-9PM EST on weekdays. I'm also not running any dating ads or anything like that, so that may have something to do with it.

I have an ad with a .06 CTR, with a recommended bid of $0.44. I am currently spending $50/day bidding $0.25 with an average CPC of $0.22. It does take the whole day to hit the limit, but I do hit the limit each day.

In the beginning I was under the impression that you could only run offers with payouts greater than like $5 since the CPC is usually to high to convert lower offers. This turned out to be wrong. On a few campaigns I am bidding around $0.30 - $0.35 and breaking even with offers paying $1.30/lead.

I have ads with .22 CTR that I can't even spend $10 a day on bidding a max of $.22. Why does facebook hate me so?
 
so where will the ads be?

i'm guessing the same place BUT w/ the tabs - i know a lot of clicks come from users visiting different places like photos/inbox/apps - less impression would take place cause the page wont be refreshed but only the content - such as when you watch a youtube video and go to diff pages of the comments. that's what i'm guessing

Well if thats the case get ready to have a 10% ctr to get any impressions.
ha ha
 
how do you guys scale facebook campaigns?

I have a good campaign going that converts but I'm never making enough - i just about break even or make about $20 or so at the end of the day. I did ask for a higher payout but i'm still not doing as great as i would like to have. I did try lower my bid - i have a good CTR but the CPC is decent.

Any suggestions?
 
I hate when you keep getting an ad disabled because you capitalize the name of the company in the body ex. "Meet girls at True". I always get, "Your ad has excessive capitalization...". They must have a bunch of fucking retards approving ads.
 
Slowed down traffic the last couple days?

has anyone else seen a decrease in conversions and traffic the last couple days? my profit has gone down 50% in the last few days.

Have you been running the same ads for a while? If so you might want to create some new ads with different photos and/or ad copy.

I find that after running the same ad for a long time the conversions and clicks will slowly decrease.

Traffic has been normal for me the past few days.
 
I don't know about you guys but during the weekend it takes longer to get approved but they actually approve ads. I will do an ad on friday and its gets declined. Then the same ad on saturday it gets approved. Or you get lucky and get some person that approves whatever it is. Then you start making as many ads you can till a dick head starts disaproving ads.

I wish they would atleast be consistent.

That's because the interns who approve ads do it drunk on the weekends.
 
Thats what I figured. Or they have hang overs and it is easier to approve then to actually look at the site.
