    Consider your prospective buyers (country, age, etc). With Facebook ads, you can filter potential buyers by country and by age.

    Facebook Offers are starting to roll out to smaller businesses.Facebook ads are targeted messages that Facebook users view when they navigate the website.

    I like:

    Newsfeed ads

    Clicks to website

    Always use one of the offered display buttons

    I usually target fairly broad/large interest groups

    Promoting something that resembles a list is great such 21 blah blah blah... whether promoting content or squeeze page

    Bidding: default optimize for clicks

    Sometimes I use one image and other times I use six images to see which performs best.

    Ensure you images are the recommended size

    Including a click here button in the image can improve ctr

    I target USA and Canada mostly

    Anything under $.15 per click is decent (under $.09 for Canada).

    I let my ads run for 4 to 5 days before pausing unless it's performing horribly during the first two days

    I ensure I can track revenue to an ad campaign.

    I increase the daily budgets of winning campaigns incrementally (usually in $10 to $20 increments unless a campaign is already over &100 per day... then I'll increase it by more.

    I start each campaign at $5 to $10 per day. I usually launch thirty at a time and assess a few days later, pausing losers and increasing winners.

      So, most important is your picture for advertisement. Do it on Photoshop, put button like "Click here for more" or "Buy it now" or "Like it". Then target the ads by age, country, sex and interests. Put optimize for clicks and do it manual. I hope the results will come soon!

        Are you referring to advertising by purchasing Facebook ads? Like when you pay to boost a post on a company page?

    Step 9: Get banned for violating Facebook's Terms of Service.

    There's no real need to use a scraper, especially since scraped data can get you banned from advertising on Facebook.

    The best way to advertise on Facebook is to use sponsored ads that appeared in your target customer's timeline. You should initially do this with PPC so that you can measure how effective your advertising is. You should also test other ads, use different images and find out for yourself what works best.

    When you are satisfied that you have a great advert that works really well you should switch to putting that advert out with pay per 1000 impressions. This will ensure that you get fantastic results.

    Hope this helps

    I know it's been said, but I will say it again.

    The thing that makes FB advertising so great is the huge number of changes you can make with your target audience to really drill down and get those people you are really looking for.

    You just have to do some research, demographics etc. to get in their heads and figure out where the people you want are spending time at.

    Show you post to the people that are most interested in what you are talking about, do that by eliminating the people you are not interested in because you know they will not engage your audience.

    The best way how to advertise on Facebook is done through split testings and must categorized properly your niche.

    Here's what I do.

    1. Create a Facebook page.
    2. Buy LIKES for the page.
    3. Pay to advertise to my page.

    I end up paying Facebook over and over again to advertise to a group of people you used to be able to advertise to for free, but I don't mind as long as it's making me money. The nice thing about it is a lot of people aren't willing to pay to play, so there's less competition in the niche markets I'm in.
