    I did okay with it before Christmas, but the CTR and ROI isn't as good as, for example adwords, and the administration of it is the most inconsistent I have ever come across.
    It just doesn't convert well compared to other methods, in theory the ability to target demographically and by hobbies and interest should be a gold-mine, but through the combination of it not being a site people go to to do anything but chat and flirt and play games, and the abysmal way Facebook are handling it - inflexible, slow, and they just don't seem to know what they're doing - it just doesn't work.
    As a consequence, all you see are ads for high-interest credit cards and weight-loss products, and it's getting to look a bit tacky.
