Is this Facebook add sucessfull?

9 replies
Greetings everyone!

I created a Facebook post on my page, and boosted it. The post was an add for my store. I spent 1 dollar daily for 14 days and I have got the following results:



I did not get any sells, but I did get 2 page likes, around 40 store visits in total and some post likes. I'm not sure if I should scale this add or if this add was sucessfull. I'm still new to this.

Thanks for taking your time reading this!

    I think the cost per engagement i.e. $.47 is a little too much.
    I have got it to be as low as $.25 for a highly targetted audience from US, UK, AU and CA.


    You should tweak it a little more before scaling it up.

    Hello,
    You need to not use post engagement, and use link clicks, then you can send them to your landing page or any other page you want, that is the trick, the one you choose.

      I did not know that. I thought it was important to build your Facebook page by boosting the posts, while selling. But I guess you can build the page when choosing link clicks.

      Thanks for telling me!

        Hello,
        Never use boost post, Boost turns your post into post engagement, which is not what you want, if you use boost post, you will see in your ads manager, that your boost post is a post engagement ad,
        boost posting, is not link clicks, so to be clear, boost is for post engagement, that is not what you want, Now you know why boost post never works for anyone.

          Thanks for the explanation. I'd appreciate it.

          I have tried with website clicks, but it cost 0,47 usd each click! I dont know what I do wrong.

            Hello,
            Your cpc will go way down, you could be average 0.28 to 0.32 but you need to spend 5 dollars per day and then you will see it drop, the more clicks you get the better your cpc is, hope this helps.

            Hello,
            You should build a custom landing page, unless you already have one, then split test your custom ads on Twitter as well, and your design and concept of product must be what people want, or this test run will fail.

            Here is how you set things up
            Custom blog
            Custom Internal landing page on your website
            Custom video for product
            SEO on page and video
            Facebook ad that lands back to your landing page on your blog,
            Twitter ad that lands back to your landing page on your blog,
            Now if your new at this, you should read more on how to build all this stuff,

            Ok hope this helps you

    Better use video in you post and boost it, in most cases cost per engagement will be much lower if your audience like video.

    Really the ad is successful based on your goal. If your goal was to get exposure it looks like you win. I don't see info on signups or sales. To me it is only successful if I made back the money for the ad and some profit.
