Facebook Advertising

Facebook has arrived as a favourite bookmark on the majority of the world’s computers. With over 175,000,000 active users online Facebook is a very heavily used website – now one of the top 5 in the world and receiving 3 billion minutes worth of browsing per day worldwide.

As anyone would expect, Facebook has developed a revenue generator for their efforts in the form of pay-per-click and pay-per-impression advertising. What many don’t quite realise yet is just how powerful the medium of Facebook ads is. With customer profiling at a previously unseen level, you can now specify down to any combination of the following criteria:

* Location (worldwide)
* Age range
* Job Title
* Interests
* Themes and groups (such as Formula 1 fans, Arctic Monkeys fans, etc)
* Sexual Orientation
* Gender
* Marital / Relationship status
* Keyword specific that may be mentioned within their profile.

As you can imagine you can achieve incredible levels of accuracy on who you target and with traffic levels second to none. The difference with Facebook advertising is that you’re putting your company’s presence in front of people who might not have actually thought about your product before instead of relying on search engines to generate traffic from people who are specifically looking for your product or service.

Facebook ads offers two different ways of working – pay per click and pay per impression. Pay per click ranges from just 0.04$ per click through to your website right through to as much as you are willing to spend (the more specific you get the cheaper the rate although the more you spend the more chance your ad has of being displayed over other competitors) or $0.10 per 1,000 page impressions which means your advert will be displayed on upto 1,000 peoples screens for just $0.10 (minimum spend of $1/day).

What other medium offers you up to 300,000 page impressions per month of your advert from just £15/month?
