Has anyone tried Facebook Flyers?

Either the PPC or the CPM.

And if so, what was your experience?

 

never heard of them can you post their url

im trying them right now. Ill make a post when I find out the perforrmance.

 

anyone have any comments on this service? Results?

 

considering how much money facebook makes I'm sure the flyers are a good investment.

you're hitting mostly college or college aged kids remember - ones that like to sit on the internet.

 

Yeah but how many of those kids actually view the ads on facebook (by view, i mean click on or actually acknowledge)

 

I have been experimenting with flyers for a month or more, trying to target the college age and others. I have had only a couple of clicks per 1,000 impressions. I think if you find the spell out the right ad and pay high for clicks you might hit a gold mine.

Dont forget that you can only spend $50 a day. I think the facebook crowd looks past the ads, but we'll see, it's not as dead as YPN, so I will keep trying LOL

 

"An error has occurred.

* You are allowed only one punctuation mark in your title and it cannot be an exclamation point.
* Your Flyer cannot contain the word "Facebook" in it.
"

So much for that. I will pass on Facebook Flyers.

 

I only got a few clicks per 1,000 impressions like sukosaki did. I may experiment with them a little more, later on.

 

I have experimented but didn't do too well.... the users are far too ad blind on that site. Its like a forum or online game, the CTR would be ridiculously low.

If you wanted a good branding exercise then it would probably be good.

 

made some money off flyers.. then I stopped getting impressions and it became a waste of time.. i guess the CPC jumped up as more advertisers joined in

 

Facebook Flyers.. nice one.. i think I would probably try it out this weekend.. and then will be able to give you more details on that..

 

Seems like CPM has not been that effective... anyone try CPC yet?

 

Here's a link to the story that ran on Shoemoney's blog about an affiliate marketer just crushing flyers in its opening days. Should at least give a few ideas, although he pretty much says that the affiliate marketing potential was really hurt by their new measures.

it blows no clicks i had 8000 impressions at one point with one click, I can't believe MS paid 240$ for 1% of facebook. The one problem with the ads is that they are set off to the side just don't work at all in that position.

 

I tried it, I got a good amount of clicks, made a little money and then my ad got banned. :/

 

Why did you ad get banned?

 

i tried them but they had very poor performance on just about any offer i through at em. best to try general offers and things which are better untargeted.

 

It seems a very interesting idea. I dont think so it will work for all prodcuts out there but it might work really good for a brand promotion! Of course you need to think what the facebook users are after!
