Facebook Advertising-How am I doing

Discussion in 'Facebook' started by HRA, Apr 16, 2015.

    Hi,

    Recently I tried FB advertising for my Local Free Classifieds site.
    Total Budget: 10$
    Running days: 10

    I chose Clicks to Website option. Because I wanted to let people know about my site. I targeted people who have shown interest in free classifieds, automobiles, real estate etc.

    First I set 5$ budget for 5 days. From that I managed to get:
    314 website clicks, 13856 reach, 17 page likes

    After that ended I added another 5$ for 5 days. Before delivering this I removed the worse CTR banners and added new banners for them.
    I got:
    299 website clicks, 10217 reach; 16 page likes.

    Max CTR I got was 3-4%

    So in total for 10$, I got 613 clicks, 24073 reach, 33 page likes.

    My question is, is this better? Did you get more than this for your website? (I know there are so many variables to consider.)
    But how do I know Im doing it right? How do I know if it was worth it?

    If you want to check out my website here it is:

    I don't recommend "click to website" if you don't sell something worth selling to which the probability of someone might buy is less than 50%. Try page likes instead. keep your audience with you forever.

    My objective is to let know as much people as I can about my site.
    Will I be able to that if I choose Page Likes?

    Thanks

    Advertising on Facebook is easy for you and your customers. From a Facebook Ad, people can download your app, claim an offer to bring into your store, add an item to a shopping cart or take another action on your website. Here is some method:
    * Setting Up Your Ads
    * Register as a user on Facebook, if you don't already have an account
    * Targeting Your Ads
    * Review your ad and so on. May it help you some.

    Objective for ads with website_clicks is the best method of settlement of the CPA. And it is available only through external tools.

    These are the stats I'm getting atm :) Old campaigns just finished 2 days ago.

    Currently writing a tutorial on it. I get better results if I do post engagement and just put my website link in the post.

    You're getting some good reach with your adverts. Are you trying to sell anything on your website? if it's worth it depends on what the goal is... sales or building traffic.

    Old adverts

    This one was for an affiliate product. didn't even spend $30 and made just over 2k in sales.

    To advertise external sites you need to create ads on the website clicks. The best form of settlement is a CPA.

    In the case of many products - cars, best to create posts Multi-product in one post where we can add 5-10 products (cars).

    It should bring the best results.

    that is only true to some degree. You will keep the likes forever, but not the audience or have them see anything, since facbeook has stated that organic reach is going down to zero.

    However in regards to advertising, you can use them as "friends of a page / friends of friends of a page".

    HRA "I targeted people who have shown interest in free classifieds, automobiles, real estate etc."
    Have you run a test with people who are living in an area and are interested in a car? I am not sure "interested in classifieds" is a very good selection.
