I signed up for Facebook advertising. So far no clicks from the ad. Has anyone tried this? Need some reviews. If its not worthy enough, I will cancel it.

I think it really depends on the ad and the niche you're advertising in.

Does you ad have a catchy headline?

Does it stand out from the rest?

I also start learning that too .Does facebook ads need pay ?

**payment proof** · 01-14-2012, 04:05 PM

Yes sallya121. Facebook offers paid advertising and you can pay to run ads on Facebook.

facebook ads are for the most part very similar to pay per click advertising. You can opt to pay per click or you can pay per 1000 impressions, etc.

I ran a campaign for a number of weeks and I personally thought it was genius marketing for one simple fact: Facebook allows you to set geographic targets, such as knoxville, tn .... and then allows you to choose how far from that center you want to advertise, perhaps only 10 miles, or as many as 100. Only fb members that reside within that demographic circle will see your ad. For certain campaigns that need local exposure only, this is priceless. I was selling an idea rather than a product or service, and I did have some interested locals show up on my website from the fb ads.

On a national or worldwide level, however, I have no experience with it.

I honestly wouldn't use it due to the fact I use firework with adblock. I never see ads.

Facebook ads are not very well placed, people tend to ignore them because they are very basic, your better off creating pages and groups to promote your site and use your funds for another advertising company.

Use a Facebook page and integrate your rss feed and put a button on your site for users to follow you on Facebook.

What I heard from ppl is that Facebook ads are generally more expensive to use and not really that targeted, I will suggest to use Google Ads if you really want targeted traffic for your site unless you got good contents that may go viral then you might as well create a facebook page & promote it

My friend has some experience with facebook ads and according to him, it is better to make your own page or group than to pay for facebook ads.

**teknolojionline** · 02-07-2012, 02:33 AM

Facebooks ads are more expensive than Adsense and also less effective. So I will stick to Adsense.

**Genite** · 02-07-2012, 02:51 AM

You can create your own page or group it would be beneficial for you rather to pay for facebook ads.

Sure you can make the group, but you need to market the group. Otherwise, it'll just a group of 1 person

**schwaman** · 02-08-2012, 10:50 PM

Try to make the ad attractive and useful, nobody wants to get useless information.

**jnisa** · 02-09-2012, 06:32 AM

It is the most easiest way to make your own page and group.

**axasa** · 02-09-2012, 05:19 PM

I agree with teknolojionline. Facebook advertising is not very effective. Adsense has better results.

**ivedtara** · 02-09-2012, 09:39 PM

Its been slightly more than month and still no clicks. I agree with most people
that may be it is better to set up a facebook page with RSS feed.

Paying facebook to adverstise does not seem compelling after what I have experienced. Better to use that $$ for other channels.

**Ryan1918** · 02-10-2012, 12:49 AM

I haven't had much luck either, thousands of dollars zero ads.

**ishuvonet** · 02-11-2012, 12:54 AM

I run a campaign a few days ago for one of my fan page as pay per impression basis but It did not work according to my expectation in terms of conversion.However i took it as a test and failed means possibility of success for the second test.

It depend since it makes only a portion of the SEO so just putting an ad and awaiting that flock of people would swarm your website will backfire and disappoint you.
