Facebook is shit

Willyfish said:

Indeed, it's still the most used platform for private stuff, I was more focused on a marketing standpoint but I agree...

From a marketing standpoint... Do I need to say more than this ?

If someone can't make it with facebook ads, he will sure as hell not make it with something else... best platform by far in terms of results.

Facebook has been the most powerful communication tool for my business. Especially with facebook groups and the way I maintain the relationship with my community, not the same results with my page of course.

And it's not based on opinion but my numbers, according to CTR and conversion rate...

FB comes first and is even better than my emails (which are pretty good).

It's only that people have no idea about cold, hot and warm traffic and how to use facebook as a full funnel with their community...

And I didn't speak about facebook ads but their targeting options are by far the most powerful AI for laser targeting.

I can freaking target my neighbour with dog food advertising at the moment I hear him say he has no dog food anymore!

Facebook is still the most powerful social media with the strongest AI in the world. No disrespect for google which has an AI that is also crazy scary.

I rant because people here say Facebook is dead... yet, the best digital marketers in the world know how powerful the platform is as a whole.

Facebook knows everything about you, they use whatsapp to track every message sent and can build customer's bucket like no other platform in the world.

I will not even mention IG as a bonus because the post will be too long but FB/IG are a real beast.

let me guess you're niche is viagra and dildos. Tbh if everyone over 60 disappeared the world would continue just fine.

I haven't scrolled Facebook since a long time on my main account.
But on my fake account it does not show me puzzles and old people to be honest with you.
It shows me post related to my friends and groups that I have joined.
It's showing content related to who your friends/relatives are which groups you have joined.

Well you should really consider using facebook at it's full potential. I showed a graph from wordstream which highlighted why facebook is in average the best platform to advertise.



Facts, facebook advertising is the most powerful + they track every whatsapp message so it makes it highly powerful and efficient, no other platform let's you target like facebook. Linkedin, reddit, tiktok, you name it, have very poor targeting options in contrast to facebook.

I don't know why it's even legal too, if you look closer at it, it's surely not but as marketers... it's a goldmine to be able to do laser targeting because of it.

I will show you some stats, instead of arguing, it comes directly from Statista which is not the average joe making stats..



Active users... not passive.



And these age groups are the most represented on fb.

So it's not me who say bullcrap it's numbers.

If you do advertising on fb and check the demographics and the number of people you can reach, you see that 18-44 male and female gives you a BIG bunch of people to target.




So if people could only check numbers before speaking it would be good.

Marketing is all about data, not guessing...

Facebook is by far the best for me and definitely one of the 3 best place to advertise and build an audience. I target people who are 30-45 mostly but there is millions of people for all age groups and still the number one social media channel in terms of numbers of active users.

I was scrolling today, and all I see are puzzles and old people. Nothing productive at all.

True, Instagram Is Good.

Currently, FB has a lot of competitors and advertisers will have more choices

Yes fb is shit, but still when I think about the $$$ and years invested in pages I really don't wanna see fb get destroyed or something else coming over the top you know what I mean?

Yeah, they disable ad accounts like it's their passion, then they tell you politely to gfy, and can't do nothing about it.

They are shit.

Ok contacting @markzucker ....tring tring

The boomers still love it though, Zuck is never letting FB go out of business lol

Ahhh I stand corrected. Thanks for shedding some light on this Mr. Fish Stick

Honestly, I was only making an assessment based on the people I personally know who use Facebook (or lack thereof), but this graph is still surprising. For example, my grandparents and everybody they grew up with love Facebook. I'm a millennial and I don't know 1 person my age who uses Facebook regularly for posting. It's all Instagram and Snapchat. That goes for myself as well. Unless I'm trying to exploit Facebook's algorithm for monetary gain, I do not use it for personal posting at all.

Hmm, because you’re the one giving them your data? You don’t have to use it. You have a choice. Why would this be ilegal?

I am 29 and I love to lurk in facebook groups, so you know one person now

FB can still provide decent results IF you know how to create ads and relevant content for your audience

I don't like the Zucker and never made it on Fb (they never allow me and was always rejected to run ads).
Nevertheless, I acknowledge it's a gold mine for those who know how to handle their strings

Outside of the content there is, it is one of the most toxic social networks along with Instagram. Many of us ask for a good competition, but the safest thing is that they do the same as them to get money.

Non because Facebook becoming META ! What a joke
