    its good to brand your business name. CPA offer also work to, but going for the direct sale isn't recommended.

    It is great for getting fans for your brand page.
    I have Facebook ads that have been getting me 100+ fans for $1.50 so it's worth it because in the end you will
    have a fan page with thousands of people who interact with you on Facebook.

    hard to get approved depending on what you are pushing, but you could get highly targeted local traffic for cheap if done right

    It's worth creating a facebook page for ad about your products and services. If you keep to update it, more customers will be attracted to you. I think you will benefit from it when you keep it for a time.

    I agree, facebook ads can seriously rock if you know what you are doing. They have one of the nicest sets of demo-targeting tools I have ever seen.

    However, facebook ads are no different than any other form of PPC. You have to know how to tweak a PPC campaign if you plan to make a profit. Just throwing up something that you think will work is not going to cut it.

    Not from my experience. Once they approve your ad you get a bunch of clicks and then nothing for days and days until you update your ad for re-approval.

    Of course Facebook is a good platform, a large number of people are there that's why you would definitely get a large visitor to product or website.

    Its good to see that you too are thinking in the right direction, the ads on facebook and the tweets on twitter help you a lot in generating traffic for your site. But, you have to be quick and patient at the same time. I mean to say quick in updation and patient in results.

    I have tried it... It's not fully targeted and the ROI is not good.

    It's good for big companies that spend ads to advertise brands
    without expecting for measurable ROI.

    The Gurus selling ebooks on making money on Facebook were
    earning real money by selling their ebooks but not by advertising
    on Facebook.

    Better to use it for social network with friends, classmates and
    business connections.

    Do split testing and always changing your ads is a good way to keep up with Facebook Ads target.
