Facebook ads feedback

Hello all,

As promised, this is my feedback about my initial foray with Facebook ads. So I placed 9 ads total, with various different criteria for the target demographic. I found the reach far outweighed the interaction, that being said a gained a bunch of new followers to my fan/business page, and I got over 200+ traffic to my site in about 2 days! Wihich can’t hurt right?

Bare in mind this was $30 free from Facebook, hence why I was so happy to chop and change demographic search criteria several times for each post I boosted. I tinkered with country, sex, shopping habits, relationship status, all sorts. The reason being I wanted to gain followers and traffic but also learn about who I should target when I spend my own money.

And I feel I did. These are the key points I learned. Done if which are captured in some of the great training we get here available at WA for free. But it’s nice to experience things for yourself sometimes right?

. Include a n engaging message to go with the link and picture you are posting.

. Don’t just advertise your whole site, have specific content you are boosting so you know the landing page a viewer will land on.

. Think carefully about who would target specificly, an example being you could search , ‘parents’, but if your niche is about baby’s and infants like mine, try targeting ‘new parents’, to narrow the search.

. Remember Facebook users don’t usually buy straight away so be patient.

. Also try and select the content from your site you are most happy with, what you considered to be the most engaging and also with ideally internal links to other pages on your site as them a visitor will view more than one page and hopefully stick around longer!

. Ideally your boosted content would have internal and affiliate links in there too as the bonus would be a click through to your vendors. That way if your visitor buys anything within a certain time using your site as a gateway you will earn a profit.

Now I have gotten some good click through sand I have my fingers crossed to start turning in some sales soon, but that will be another blog!

Anyway I will share the pics for reference and so you know I’m not just fabricating all this lol.

Thanks, Kenny

Great stuff. Because of different niches, the billings may not be the same.
Good opening to consider. Thanks for sharing.

This all sounds good but Jay said Facebook was pretty much saturated and a waste of time so I have not pursued it. I guess maybe I should? But also, I am not promoting a product, it is a self help for PTSD. that's miles apart from what you are doing. Advice?

You can find people interested in that too for sure. Simply go and put your niche in the search criteria. You will be surprised

Great information! I have toyed with the idea of boosting a few of my Facebook posts. I just might have to try it.

Hey Kenny, those are some pretty interesting numbers. Have you done this before, did you figure it out on your own, or have you gotten that far along in the training?!
I’m excited for you, and looking forward to learning how to make it happen for myself.
Have a great weekend.

Thanks, I am just going through the training and learning with experience myself. But if you don’t try, you don’t get, as they say lol

Thanks for sharing Kenny, my next phase of training is social media, so I found this really interesting. All the best.

Thanks for all the details. Very helpful!

Very good ad feed back analysis! Can't wait to start posting my own ads.

Wow Kenny, that is excellent. Good stuff.

Thank you for sharing Kenny, its very interesting to see. It goes to show that facebook ads can work well if you engage people enough with the posts.
