Can't Boost Post Reach After Adding Budget

    I don't seem to be able to increase the reach of a boosted post, even though I increased the budget.

    I boosted a post last Thursday and it reached only 105 people. the budget spent was only $3.62

    There is a green arrow and a box under the post that says $14.38 left, so I THINK I have money left in my budget (right???)

    Yet if I click that green arrow link, and look at the details, it says:

    Adding this budget ($5) will increase your reach to an estimated 140 - 370 people.

    So I have been adding to my budget since last Thursday, but the reach hasn't increased; it has remained at 105 people.

    Can anyone help my understand why it has not increased?

    Thanks in advance.

    As far as I can tell, I already HAVE done that!

    I go into the Ads Manager and I see that the lifetime budget is set at $18

    However, it also says "Not Delivered" and it says "spending Limit Reached".

    Why would it say that when I have already added to the Lifetime Budget???
