So, if you have a campaign getting volume then pause it, and unpause it, it won't receive impressions anymore?? Cause that's what happened to me twice so far.
NEW Facebook Ads
- Thread starter Jon
- Start date
If you raise/lower budget to mimic pause, raising the budget would make your avg cpc go up by quite a bit no?
Cheat code for FR33 clicks:
1) Bid within suggestion range.
2) Set daily budget on campaign to $XXX
3) Wait for it to be 11:50 PM. (Considering your account is setup under your timezone.
4) Resume the campaign.
5) Wait 3 minutes and pause the campaign again.
6) Enjoy FREE clicks.
Why? Facebook will try to spend your fully daily budget within those last remaining minutes of the day, but as soon as the click ticks 12:00, you stop getting charged. BUT, your ad is still visible on the screens of many people, so those who end up clicking = free visitors. Had this happen to me once unintentionally, scored about an extra 150 visitors free of charge.
Not suggesting anyone to use this though, it's just for educational purposes.

Someone else got a c and d for doing this. Its in this thread about a 100 pages back.
Are you guys able to track conversion on Facebook ads? I've heard it's possible but I don't see it anywhere inside the ads platform.
they took that option away a while back but i believe its still available for large advertisers
I'm not surprised, which is why I said I don't recommend anyone do it.
It is pretty surprising though that FB knew of this issue 100 pages back but still has not done anything to fix it.
Facebook Ads is a totally fucked up platform. What kind of programmers are behind this shit? I added my interests to target then went down to check the suggested CPC, it was 1.13, I added another interest in the list, it jumped to 1.59, I decided to remove this new interest and went back down, it was at 1.75! What kind of logic is this?
I'd try sending some traffic and see how the bid adjusts with some CTR data.
I'm not sure if it's what you're after but my tool lets you view P202 and FB data together (the feature will be released later tonight). You still need a P202 install though.
did you create 10 ads and only 1 is now getting all impressions and clicks? its normal. just pause the other ads coz FB kinda decides on the highest performing ad after about 1000 odd impressions and sticks to it. Ignores all other ads in the same group.
so fb kinda picks out the "best" ad? then you just go from that ad? and see if it maintains the ctr. if not. dud ad/campaign? make a new one?
Yeah it's part of their algorithm to maximize their ad revenue. Ads that earn them the most money are displayed more frequently.
