Meta advertising FAQ:

 

Q: Why can’t my ad be launched?

A: Usually there are two situations when advertisements cannot be launched. One is that the audience size is too small and the audience has been fully covered; the other is that the bid is too low, that is, the bid is too low. For example, the current market price of apples is 1 yuan each, but you want to buy them for 0.3 yuan. How is this possible?
 
 

Q: How to measure the quality of an advertisement?

A: Measuring the quality of an advertisement mainly depends on the advertising goals created and what your true inner goals are. From a logical point of view, if you set a goal, you need to look at the values ​​associated with the corresponding goal. For example, if the goal is to like the page, then you have to pay attention to the number of page likes and indicators related to the interaction rate; if the goal is to add to the shopping cart, then you have to check the number of times to add to the shopping cart. Again, machines are not humans and cannot guess!
 
 

Q: Is it necessary to find an agent? What are the conditions for opening an account with an agent?

A: If you are a novice, it is recommended to look for it. It can help us solve many problems in the early stage, such as eliminating blind spots and handling various matters. Since people have helped you deal with various problems, it is natural and reasonable to pay a certain cost, so there are service fees and other expenses. Account opening conditions vary with each agent and require actual communication and review. Generally speaking, the core of an agent mainly lies in the account period, rebates, service fees and the resources it possesses.
 
 

Q: Why is my account always blocked?

A: Accounts are usually blocked because we have violated regulations, otherwise a platform will not block your account for no reason. This kind of violation is widespread, such as BM, personal account, homepage, IP, etc., which may cause problems. Of course, there is another situation where these are normal, but it determines that you violate the rules, which is a mistaken ban. For cases of mistaken closure, we can appeal normally. This type of large media and companies originally adhere to the principle of preferring to kill the wrong person, which is understandable, but understanding is understanding. If it really happens to you, you will still feel disgusted, but there is no other way except to complain. After all, People are awesome.
 
 

Q: Has Facebook advertising become more expensive?

A: This is inevitable. This is not decided by Facebook, but the traffic itself is getting more and more expensive. But as mentioned earlier, if the overall product and conversion rate are excellent, then your traffic costs can be reduced.
 
 

Q: What advertising tracking tools can you recommend?

A: BigSpy, Adspy, and Facebook Library are all available. There are many tools. You can find a lot of them by searching on Google. Facebook Library is Facebook’s official material library. Others are paid tools and will not be evaluated here. For game apps, such as App Growing, there are many of them just by searching. Don't be too obsessed with tools. It's enough to be able to use one or two skillfully.
 
 

Q: Which one is better, Traffic or conversion advertising?

A: Like my previous answer, it depends on what your main goal is. If the main goal is conversion, then there is no need to hesitate and you must run conversion ads. Traffic ads are only suitable for brand advertising or guiding users to perform certain behaviors from shallow to deep, such as activities, surveys, etc. Of course, I believe no one has told you that Traffic can also be used for remarketing ads.
 
 

Q: Is it necessary for e-commerce platforms to carry out off-site advertising?

A: Of course it is necessary. As I said before, Google and Amazon spend huge amounts of money to buy traffic every year. Based on the good work on the site, of course we have to expand off-site advertising. But please focus on it! If you don’t do it well inside the site, don’t think too much about it outside the site!
