Yes it is,if you do wisely then it will sure work,but sometime it take little time to get set all,but it is worth of taking time.You can check here more threads where you will find the people who are using it and getting a good result too.
I have not try it myself but I heard lots of people saying that it actually works. Depends on what niche of course. Keep in mind that if your selling dog training, your ad will be placed on people who are dog lovers.
Off course it works. Marketing works everywhere if done with creativity. Why would you think that facebook marketing won't work where facebook is doing million dollar business with facebook ads?
Yes it does! Facebook helps me generates tons of traffic. All you need is the right tools and split testing.
Marketing on Facebook not only works but also is an invaluable tool which doesn't cost you a cent. All you have to do is open a Fan Page for your business and get it going. However before you start sending your Facebook friends invitations to become a fan, you should first make sure that your Fan Page is ready. First of all add your website logo as the Fan Page's profile picture. Secondly start posting content to your Fan Page's wall; not only commercials, but real content such as witty remarks, anecdotes, etc. Use humor and wit and then you'll have many fans in a short period of time. And finally don't forget to place a link on your Fan Page to your website.

Even though facebook is mostly entertaining website. 400 million active users? And how many inactive? My friend has more than 80 accs on facebook, half of them are active, he promote them. Does it count?
yes ..that's for sure facebook is an easy way to promote your business..+ it doesn't cost you any cents ,right?
From my experience im not convinced FB marketing it worthwhile with paid campaigns. This however is just my experience. My reasoning behind this is very simple and that people aren't of facebook using it as a search tool to locate products, service. Even with the very targeted ad campaigns I have found that the CTR on paid ads isnt as good as a similar campaign on Google. Saying this however I do have a site that has 100% of its traffic and all sales generated from a public profile on FB that I generated 2 years ago. The traffic to this public profile is all organic and not paid for. So from that aspect FB is a great tool go generate FREE organic traffic. I think it ultimately comes down to what your trying to promote and if that fits into the FB culture
i still try this service for my local business, and its run good for me, the demographic option give me more targeted traffic
well, i've an online shop by create a profile page on FB. and it works. I mean, I can sold better than what I thought before.
