How to do Facebook Page Advertising?

Is it better to run ads that advertise a FB page or an external website? I'm guessing FB page, since it builds trust. But then what, should I have my external website with video and optin in the FB page with perhaps an iframe or something?

Or would the Facebook page simply pre-sell them so they click to my site. That would be an extra click (bad, right?)

Is there software for making responsive FB pages? BTW, I'm going to be using Facebook Group Snatcher that I found on here. Any thoughts on that? thanks for your expertise!

    After much research and the incredible amount of helpful responses I received on this thread, I have created my Facebook page using Static HTML Tabs. Works great. Highly recommend it. It's an app. Search for it on Facebook itself. They use a gray star as their logo.

    Anyway, used their "form app" to add an aweber form. Now it's time to create an ad. So I want users to click on the ad and go to the tab in my page. Which type of ad objective would be appropriate for this? I understand that FB charges more if you go to an external website. But i don't just want Page Likes, I want them to click, and then go to my page with the form.

    You can use PPE or Page likes for that. CTW and Webcon are good for taking people outside of FB.

    but FB GROUP SNATCHER doesn't work anymore. Have you seen all of the latest threads on id snatching on here? The only one that works is "Connect with Me" which is free. I used it last night to get thousands of ids.

    It was a bit of work, weeding out all of the groups with useless id's of group members who are only in that group to market their IM sh!t, so you have to check out the groups manually, and even go into the members' profiles to make sure they are real, they have FB friends, actually post stuff, and are actually interested in your niche and the group they joined.

      we don't bother with FB much

      if you waste time trying to buy ads there, they bury them on the right side of page

      so you get almost no CTR

      it's tough to spend money on FB

      waste of time

      google/bing/yahoo the big 3 sites for ppc or im-ads

      if the ad is not top left side of page

      you get bad ctr and it's a waste of time

      time = money

      so FB is a waste

      the product likes are fake too

      just like book rviews on amazon

      fake product likes
      bad ad position

      waste of time

      you sell stuff from a legit website with a paypal link or a secure gateway to your own merchant

    You can use the Power Editor to create an "Unpublished Post" and direct link to your custom tab within the ad. You can create an unpublished post for a few of the options, whether website conversions, clicks to website or page post engagement.

      thanks, so I went with this, using Page Post Engagement. Simple headline, one big image of a free ebook, "Learn More:" plus the URL to my tab.

      They click on the url, land on my tab with a Fangate (again, I recommend Thunderpenny Static HTML Facebook app for adding tabs). Fangate text:
      Like my page to get your e-book and watch the video! (with arrow pointing to the Like button). They must click on Like in order to remove the tinted blocker.

      They click on Like, the blocker goes away, they see my ultra cool graphic with ebook image and text, "Enter your email address to see the video
      and receive an Instant Download link for the e-book." using my AWeber form.

      Immediate redirect to the clickbank product page with video. AWeber simultaneously sends them an email with a link to download the ebook on my site. (this encourages them to give me a real address)

      whew! lot's of work, lots of research and learning.

    Try to start with the Page Likes objective so you'll build your audience and encourage folks to like your page. More likes make you look popular, which encourages more people to like you in a domino effect.
    Create an offer or discount to be redeemed in your brick and mortar store. It's recommended that you target your first Facebook Offer to just your fans.
    Images are a powerful tool you can utilize for creating engaging, eye popping Facebook ads.

    1)Try starting with the Page Likes objective – you’ll build your audience and encourage folks to like your page
    2) Include a call to action in the body text of your Facebook paid ad to encourage FB users to take your desired action.
    3)When promoting a Facebook page, the automatic setup is for the ad headline to be the same as your page’s title.
    4)Add multiple images to a Facebook PPC ad for extra variety and to test how different images coupled with your ad text perform
    5)On image ads, keep text under 20%
    6)You can target your Facebook ads exclusively to users who are already connected to your Facebook page, or you can choose to target them and their friends

    Ads on Facebook are unique. They're shown to specific groups of highly engaged people on desktop and mobile. When your ads have great creative content and are well targeted, they get more likes, comments and shares. When someone takes any of these actions, their friends may see your ad, making it more powerful. The more you promote your posts and create targeted ads to specific groups of people, the more likely they are to see it when they visit Facebook.
