    It is worth it if you target correctly and get your CTR up..

    It is a tough road and you have to target very well. For example, don't run an ad to all women or all men, you will get a ton of impressions and a horrible CTR and then your ad will stop showing. Know your demographic and then you might have a chance.

    I have tried it before and didn't have much luck promoting on facebook, the targeting is too generic and is based on demographics.

    They suck, when I would be on your place I would not go with them.

    I did not get results good enough to keep my campaigns running. As sranju mentioned...too generic targeting.

    depends on the content...

    for example, i own a site with school content for just certain year. And for that, it's great!
