There is actually a pretty easy way to do it.
Just fill out the form here: Log In | Facebook
I got mine increased in less than 24 hours when I filled this in.
Not even if i were to start branching in to niches besides dating? I've really wanted to hit gaming up. Also wanted to hit up insurance, edu, and whatever else i'll get to convert. But you don't think i could spread 5 figs a day in ad spend for traffic?
I mean if Gaming is as easy as dating is, i'll could easily spend an extra 5-7 grand on gaming alone. And i hear that it is easier.
gaming is pretty easy. if you are killing it with dating i cant see you having much trouble with gaming.
Do you have trouble getting volume? I ask cuz I'm still a newbie w/ FB, and cuz It was mentioned that it could potentially become a problem to fill a certain ad spend quota.
I just find it so random. Like a week ago I launched a new campaign and was spending $5k+ per day on it, I just relaunched another campaign yesterday and lucky to spend $200 a day yet CTR is similar, bids are higher.....just makes no sense sometimes.
Anybody know if Facebook has some sort of "campaign" quality score.....i.e. the sum of the campaign ctr helps you get more volume or some other adwords like bullshit? So would benefit to weed out the low CTR ads in the campaign, even if they may be profitable.
probably...there must be some behind-the-scenes shit that they're pulling that would make for the large discrepancy in the volumes. the problem is that fb keeps changing their policies, wouldnt surprise me if they keep updating some QS algorithm they use also...making for some pretty fucked up data
Long time lurker, first time poster here. Well I finally decided to get off the bench and into the game. This weekend I spent $81.63 with FB and made $43.35 from the offers, so I lost $38.28 (please insert jokes about how I am not a baller, AM is dead and show a picture of dicks spinning NOW). Ok now that we have that out of the way I would love some helpful advice for those who have a lot more experience. I chose to run a game offer and a scholarship offer.
My game offer had the best CTR at 0.194% but only converted at 2.17%. The ads were very accurate with what I was promoting, they said what the game was and that a download was required. The game was about the show The Office so I was able to narrow my demo to people who had an interest in the office. I chalked this up to just being a crappy offer and canned it.
My scholarship offer had the best conversion rate at 11.54% but the CTR was 0.015% and I stopped getting impressions after a couple of hours. I have to assume that my conversion rate was high due to the low amount of clicks and some luck with the first few clicks.
So that was my first weekend, I lost money but had a lot of fun and learned a lot. I know a lot of you guys are really good with FB so any help on how I could actually make money would be much appreciated, I am out of ideas on what I could have done differently.

Thanks, what would be a good conversion rate with a game or scholarship offer, or is this private to most?
It varies with your ad copy and by offer. That's an impossible question to answer. Ask your AM how its performing for their network to get a good idea for the offer. Then split test your ad copy.
Measure by profitability. Sometimes you can yield a high CVR but the traffic is expensive. Or the opposite can unfold and the click costs are cheap but your CVR is low. PM me if you'd like personalized help.
Hey Guys, I am seeing some weird results.
Say I got 2 campaigns, both targetting the same demographics, same offer etc.....just different ads. If one campaign is slightly profitable and the other campaign is very profitable, it makes sense to pause the slightly profitable one so the very profitable one gets more impressions.
You would THINK Facebook would then send all the impressions to that very profitable campaign since you are no longer splitting your traffic.
Doesn't seem to be happening though.
Does this normally happen or maybe just some weird stuff happening in the background right now unrelated? No point in wasting some impressions to a slightly profitable campaign when the very profitable campaign converts better.

Ya I have heard that before....so you dont need to worry about splitting your demographics?
So you got 20 ads running in one campaign, keep the profitable ones and turf the unprofitable ones, even though a few are vastly superior to others and logic would dictact you only keep the cream of the crop.
Copy the profitable ones as you turf the shitty ones then. More ads = More traffic.
I've found that it's quite easy to spend 4k+ per day w/ less than 10 ads and still get an ROI of about 300%.
If it weren't for FB's retro-AD fucking and the fact that they've disapproved almost 2k ads in less than 24 hours for no reason (to my knowledge, i'm staying w/in guidelines), i'd be bangin out traffic so hard......
Props to the guys that can get thousands of ads to stick/day or /week.
AWESOME info, thanks.
You just copying ads exactly or making minor changes for split testing?
It dont look funny you got 100 ads all indentical with indentical demo's?
Make minor changes, but utilize the winning images over and over and over again. From my findings so far, it doesn't look funny at all to facebook (in regards to them disapproving for ad 'cloning').
Also, depending on your budget, try to put ads up every day. If you've got a few hundred to like 1k worth of testing money, you'll want to find something that works, but chances are you won't find them if you're utilizing only a select few ads that YOU think are good over and over again. It's about attracting the FB users, not you. So put aside any bias and test ALL images that are related to the niche/offer you're promoting.
If you've got a set of 100 pics and you haven't created ads w/ all the pics yet, rotate them in for when you turf shitty ones.
and sorry, i mean to say 200% roi, not 300% roi in my previous statement that you quoted.

Get used to it. With volume and especially your high CTR ads, they're going to get re-reviewed. Also means you're getting a lot of exposure and a lot of dudes Xing out your ads. They have a hardon for letting users decide what ads should be allowed to run.
Respect for starting FB a week ago and getting results. Dating's not the easiest thing to get an ROI on, let a lone those kind of numbers.
