My best advice would be: Target as narrow as you can. You won?t get awesome CTR with every niche, even targeted one, but you are far more likely to succeed if you do so. Fb is a bitch and sometimes they will fu*k you over and give you bad ad positions. If you truly believe you should get good CTR and low CPC and your CPM bidding didn?t work?. Try CPC! Bid high for the first 3-4 clicks to see if CTR is better than before.

If it isn?t, stop and move on to another niche.

BUT, if it is, immediately lower your bid on the lower end of suggested bid and see if you are still getting traffic. Your goal is to bid as low as possible? say.. 3 cents per click if you are OK with traffic volume?


However with using CPC is almost impossible to get 1 penny clicks (it takes longer and CTR has to be insane ~1%). 2-3 pennies, maybe?. Use your daily limit wisely and don?t forget to pause ads after you submit them for review. I usually stay close to my PC, after I start running new campaign and check every few minutes, if traffic is already coming and how good CTR is.


You can check out a practical example in another thread. I decided to post it and comment results ==> http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackh...ow-turn-dying-cpm-ad-into-winning-cpc-ad.html

Tried testing this method today, so far following are my numbers.

15,767 Impressions
40 Clicks
30 Connections
0.254% CTR
$2.16 Spent
$0.14 CPM
$0.05 CPC

CTR is way below than the required limit.

I have't had any CPA conversions yet. Do you get the conversions directly from the Ads or are they from status updates?

I'm not using a 'dog', do you suggest I should try another pet instead?


Thanks.

Wait so did you run your facebook ad with the cpa offer? Or run an email submit to build your list and get fans?

Up to this point I have a fan page I made and I just got my maxbounty account

So I am not sure what to do next. Do I put my cpa offer inside my static iframe page now or after I run the ad?

Also thanks for posting your test of this wso. Kinda motivated me.

Any update ?

dont spent your money for fanspage !!!!!!!!

Warning! I think Facebook are onto this method in a big way. Since several thousand of this WSO was sold some have said their their account has been banned. Mine is banned now too and I had created just 1 ad. Here is what Facebook said.

Email 1: Thanks for creating a Facebook Ad or Sponsored Story! Your confirmation is below. Please note that you will only be charged for the impressions or clicks your ad receives. The total charge will not exceed the daily campaign budget you have set.

Email 2: (30 minutes later) Thanks for advertising with Facebook. We have reviewed your ad(s) and determined that the one or more of them do not meet our guidelines or have not been processed. We recommend that you view the details below and revise the indicated ad as necessary before submitting additional ads.

Email 3: (Next Day) Your Facebook Ads account has been disabled. All of your ads have been suspended and should not be run again on Facebook under any circumstances.
We typically disable an account if too many of its ads violate our Terms of Use or Advertising Guidelines. Unfortunately, your Facebook Ads account will not be reactivated and you will be unable to continue advertising on Facebook.

So after this I went through their appeals process and provided all my details ect. This is also a my genuine account and my genuine Paypal. Here is their reply to my appeal.

Email 4: Facebook will not tolerate behavior that users may find annoying or abusive, or
that violates our Terms of Use or Advertising Guidelines. You have used your
account to submit ads that are explicitly prohibited by our ad policies. As a
result, your account has been permanently disabled.

We will not be able to reactivate your account, nor will you be able to recover
any content within the account. You will also not be permitted to create a new
account to restart your Facebook advertising. This decision is final.



I wasnt trying the dog niche at all. My ad was to a fan page for American Football. I didnt even have a CPA offer on the page at all as I was trying to build the fans first.

So my experience with FB ads has been a disaster.

Intersting.


I created the first campaign yesterday and the ads were instantly approved.
So I created 2 more fan pages, and 3 ads for each (a total of 6 ads) last night. 1 got approved instantly, the remaining 5 weren't getting approved, so I went to sleep.

I work up today to find the remaining 5 ads were disapproved. (saying not within their quality guidelines or something)

I think these ads will not get approved if they go through a manual review.

I'm not sure what causes the ads to get disapproved. I think it's probably the arrow pointing to the 'Like' button.

Any feedback guys?

I'll do the same ads again (without the arrow) as see if that will get approved. - Although it will kill the remaining bit of CTR

Okay I made a extra account for trying and my account got banned when I was trying to run the ads :/ two times! Good thing I didn't use my own account.

I think in general FB know what these ads and pages are about. The WSO sold about 7000 copies so I am sure FB doesnt want a whole buhcn of pages that just go to CPA offers. I think they will see them as providing no value (like most FB pages ) and just dont want us making money from them.

Facebook are also no friend of Max Bounty and most other CPA networks as they see them as responsible for many spam pages, posts ect. They have taken various CPA companies to court as we know.

Would be interested to see your results.

Ok, did the new ads (without arrows), and got rejected again.





I don't think this was manually rejected. It was approved for about 3 seconds.

Ahhh, this realy blows!!

Guys, I'm sorry, you are getting ads disapproved. Mine are still alive but I noticed lately that more ads get disapproved than normal. Still, you wouldn't believe me what ads my scrapper finds sometimes. FB people must be on crack. There is soooo much cleavage, male and female nudity, slang.... And then they go and disapprove an ad with a cute animal. Jerks!


What to do?

• If you would use older account where you already spent some money, you'll be definitely luckier to get an ad approved.
  
• Remove all CPA indicators (links, CTAs...)
  
• Use ads without arrows when you submit them for the first time.
  
• If possible, change the fan page title a little so it's not classical "I Love xxx".

You know what I dont understand, how some ads get impressions and others dont

For example I started running these from 8am this morning, all identical except the images



Anyone shed some light on that?

ok guys, avoid this method at all cost.

Facebook paused the remaining Ads I was running and gave me a warning.
They also went into the account and deleted the 3 'I Love xxxx' pages I had.

My account is (still) active, but I'm sure I'll get banned if I continue to try doing this again.

Money-wise, I've made $8.40 in CPA, so I'm breakeven.

Just as I thought I found a way to make money with CPA, FB had to come in and F* it up. They're becoming more like Adwords.

Any other tips to generate targeted, cheap traffic (and safe)?

Have you follow what mojstermiha said on what to do?

Did you run the ad from your real account or did you use a dummy account?
