We have just recently opened up a business and are planning to sponsor our posts. Would facebook ads be worth it?

I spent more than $150 for Facebook ads to increase Likes for my fan page or drive traffic to my websites but it didn't work for me. The traffic has low conversion.
I would suggest you find high traffic forums or blogs which relate to your business to advertise on. Why? because they are getting good traffic from search engines and visitors came to their sites will like visting your offers/services advertising on those sites.

Other than that, if you only use Facebook ads to increase number of likes for your fan page then it is good to go because it is better than services out there because they can provide you fake likes.

Yikes. 150 dollars is quite big for facebook ads.
Right now, our page is only starting so I guess we need the publicity, facebook or somewhere else.

Not at the moment. you'll see yourself spend large sums of money for nothing. Wait and work on your publicity and once you achieve that. Start a Facebook ad. Then at least a person would see the post and have a bit of knowledge about what's that!


Don't pay for ads idly. Slant your objective and then start. Remember you have to be sure ads will benefit you. Ads payments are not reimbursable.

I have run facebook ads for various niches. Facebook ads have worked for em for most of the times. Initially you can run a small campaign of not very big budget. But look after that when your budget is low you target a smaller area. After running the ad look at the response and decide yourself. When you run campaign target audience and area should be chosen very meticulously. Second is your ad copy, Ad copy should be very catchy to your audience to increase audience. all the best!

Facebook ads are fantastic from a brand awareness perspective, but as a conversion tactic they can be costly and results can differ wildly depending on your business model. At this early stage, it's probably best to wait until the foundations of your business have been established before taking the plunge into any form of PPC or Paid Social activity. Make sure your online user-experience is up to scratch, as you'll only end up with a high bounce rate and empty pockets.

Facebook Ads are fantastic for creating top of the funnel interest, but unlike PPC traffic Facebook audiences needs to be nurtured in order to see positive returns.

Sure Facebook ads Worth it, they can target your products to the people that really needs your services, but as a beginer you just have to do some SEO to your site or service to get some few traffics or as well you can build some back links in some forums that are related to your niche by that you can be getting some new traffics that can now help you whenever you want to promote your service on Facebook ads, because Facebook users will only get interested in your product if you have some traffics to your product, like you have enough likes and shares thats when you see yourself benefiting on Facebook ads ... I assure you that you will enjoy it if you give this step some trials thanks

Facebook ads can definitely get you some traffic, but only if you're posting original content that most people are interested in. However it is not really worth the investment when you have thousands of free groups where you can share your content and that way you can get organic traffic to your website. If you're thinking of only posting simple memes, or pictures with quotes, which everyone is doing then you won't have too much success, so you should always focus on being creative.

If you can be able to link up with experience online personalities that know how to run Facebook ads effectively, then I think you're on the right path to making huge sales using the facebook platform. The reason is becasue facebook boasts of the carrier of many online memebers that launching your products on it will drag people to buy from you if the ads are done in a catchy way.

I know of friends that used Facebook to market their products every day and they make huge sales out of it which is really nice considering the amount you would have spent advertisng on blogs and other popular sites in your country. So, facebook ad can be effective for your new business if you can use it well

Yes It is, But you have to do it right to produce the right or desired result you wanted. First is you should know your target market, what age group and what country. Always use the English language because more people using social media knows how to speak that language and finally a good photo should accompany a paid ads.

Yes for sure, since most of people around the world are using Facebook. Its is a good way to advertise product or services, but it must be address properly to avoid confusion on the part of the Facebook users. It must be well organized, easy to understand and be sure that users can interact directly to what is being advertise. It might be good if it will be provide a different language for the different people in order to achieve your desired result. For instance, if a product or services will be advertised in the US, then English language must be used, but if it is in the other country, then it must be address with the country's preferred language so that a lot of them would understand it easily.

Definitely yes! Just imagine how many millions of people are already using facebook. Even a small chunk of that users come across your business ad, It will somehow create an impact on your business. Specially when your ad is good, there's a possibility that it will be shared by different people on their relatives or friends.

Uh? No. As much as how Facebook Ads looks reliable on helping independent marketer, they truly are not. First is, since you have paid for it they will most likely flood you with bots that seems to be real user but most of them are not. Second, the payment was too high, why do you have to pay them if you can do it for free using their platform with just your time and patience? Lastly... If you want legit and real people appreciating your product use everyone you know that's using Facebook, they might help you spread your business more easily and freely.

It depends, your ads should be catchy so that you can have many viewers. You should think of strategies how to do it. It will be effective and successful once you know how to handle and manage it well.

Yes, is worth it! Facebook is the biggest social media in the world. Just keep in mind you should use an ENGLISH language to your ads wherever demographics you are so everyone can understand what it is. Just be social and interact to your audience.

No, it won't be worth it. No paid ad will be worth it until the cost of the ads create enough profit to justify buying them. What you have to understand is that ads do not translate into SEO or customer retention.
You might be better off investing into SEO when you start out.
I find that ads really become useful when your business is already doing well anyways. You need the infrastructure in place already to support vast amount of ne customers.
It's also worth experimenting to maximise visitor conversion first. No point in advertising if no one actually buys the products.

Facebook ads work for your business traffic and will give huge likes on your Facebook page. You should keep one thing in mind when you posts, always add your target location/country from where you want to be getting the audience.

yes the Facebook ads are worth it but it depends on how old is your business and the product
I suggest that firstly do organic post if have a sufficient reach on your post, then go to paid ads
