How to see Facebook Ads from competitors?

by mbacchi

Hi all,

Is there a way to check the ads from competitors. I want to see the ads my competitors are creating so I can model and create something similar.

Anyone?

Many thanks!

    Create a Facebook profile that models your "perfect customer". Who is your target market? What kind of things do they like? Build the profile up and you'll begin seeing ads.

    I used to market on Plenty of Fish and I did the exact same thing. It cuts the learning curb tremendously when you can see exactly what your competitors are doing.

    I tell this to a lot of beginners, and it's good that you've realized it on your own. Whatever niche you are in, people are making money with it somehow, somewhere. The smartest thing you can do is copy what already works, and tweak it to your own needs.

    Websites like socialadninja.com have exactly what you're looking for. You can input keywords and search through thousands of current ads across hundreds of niches. You can even click through to their landing pages.

      A $147,00 every month, no way :-( ... If I spend this money on advertising instead of paying for this service I will make much more money! Thank you for your help anyway :_)

        $147 is pretty cheap for the value they give you. You just have to know how to implement it. You can easily save more than $150 on testing, if you take a lot of inspiration from what's already working.

        I'll have to check, but I think my membership is still active(If not I can renew it). Shoot me a pm with the niche you're interested in and I'll take a couple screen shots of the first few pages of relevant ads.

    In this time everything you can see with the help of goolge by searching similar services then see they are running ads or not. By creating profile in Facebook also you can do the same..

    Why do you feel the need to copy someone else's strategy? You're better off thinking about your own campaign, it might be even better than your competitor's! Sure, check them out to see how they're doing it (keep friends close, enemies closer) but don't copy them, try to be better than them!

    Hi

    Facebook does not provide an API to gather this informations. What some marketers are doing is basicly breaking every Facebook TOS by creating many fake facebook accounts to catch every ads possible targets and then scrape Facebook pages to get ads displayed. The really bad things here is that doing so they generate a huge amount of fake clicks on Facebook Ads.

    To be clear no serious marketers are using these tecnniques. They are used by black hats who try to identifies ads related to affiliation programs and duplicate them to earn quick money.

      That's ridiculous. The majority of successful marketers use this exact technique, whether it's ad copy, business model, sales funnel - You always research industry leaders and model what they are doing. You don't have to steal anything, but it's stupid not to take strong influence from them - Why wouldn't you?
