Really terrible method. It does not work and does not work, regardless how much I try, it does NOT work. 100 % bounce rate from product page with 4 seconds on-page time. That's ridiculous.
They click on my link from the fb ad so they want the product. They have already seen the product on fb, they have seen the price too. So what is the f**ing problem that they leave the product page after 4 seconds although they already have seen everything on fb ad.
It is simply that this bs facebook traffic does never convert, this is NOT buyer traffic. They come for looking and immediately leave again. This thread and also all the others about this method are full of people that got clicks to website but only abandoned carts and zero sales.
3-4 lucky people here made some money by pure chance, all the others made nothing and only burned their money for advertising.

You are a perfect example of why 95% of people here will never make any decent amount of money. You make excuses and expect shit to work instantly, the first time you try. If that was the case, everyone including your grandmother would do it. Facebook traffic is a gold mine, you just have to spend the time and money to optimize it.

No, not the first time I try. In another post I already said that I tried for several times and had lots of facebook ads online. I tried with different products, even different shops designs. Some things worked better, some things worked not so well, but in the end, I never got any order.

About your ad, my ad is doing the same. You have 394 PE from a reach of 6000 and 0.04 CPC.
I stopped my ad at reach 1000 with 70 PE and 0.06 CPC. If I would let it run till 6000, I would also have same PE and same CPC like you.
But why did I stop? NOT because the ad did not perform. But PE is not conversion. Just because someone clicks on like or places a comment, this does not mean on order. Out of my reach of 1000 only 5 went to the website and immediately bounced from product page. It is NOT because of shipping too high, on product page you do not see any shipping rate. It is NOT because of bad product, if it was bad product then why they go to the link, they saw the product already on facebook.

So you got 6 ordes, out of how many visitors? How many of those 6000 actually clicked on your link? I got 5 out of 1000, so with 6000 I would have got about 30 visitors. And out of 30 visitors you cannot get 6 orders.

It was 252 clicks to site to get the 6 orders, which isn't even very good. So there is tons of room to improve.

Yes and this is what is not working for me. With a reach of 1000 I got 5 clicks, so for 252 clicks I need a reach of 50,000 and not 6000 like you. With 6000 reach I will get maybe 30 visits. So now I paid $5 for 5 clicks, so 252 clicks would be about $252. So my product price would have to be more than $40 to make back my investment, so to make a profit more than $50 per product. Impossible.

You got 252 clicks with 6000 reach, I would get 30. But my PE and CPC is the same. So I do not understand this at all.

I haven't done the FB method, so I can't speak much on it, but a lot of people are having more success putting the tracking pixel after checkout?

And are we talking here about regular CTR or link CTR? Because to me, the regular post engagement CTR is pertty much pointless, I always look only at the link CTR. I don't need likes and comments really. Post engagement is nice and stuff for a bit of extra traffic, but it's not my goal. My goals are conversions. So if you have 8% CTR, what is your link CTR? 3% maybe? And that's just not good enough imo.
 
@lewy2k

is my pixel setup properly (See previous page) ? Because for every sale I get, I get two Conversion points.
 
Di you try to promote a post, instead of paying for an ad?
Posts are way more performing I noticed, and also you pay way more less per click

I think the trick is to promote your product as a post (Page Post Engagement as they call it - PPE). If it's succesfull you can increase the budget or switch to a conversion pixel for purchase. Not sure if the last one is preferrable if you are already having a good interaction on your post.

Also keep in mind that people who comment or tag someone under your post will increase the potential that other people (who did not see your add because they do not like your fanpage or they are not in the audience your are targeting) will see it too. I think this last step is really important to reduce CPC because if you only target people on desktop and they start tagging en commenting beneath the post, people on mobile phones (80% of the internet) will most likely see the post too.
 
Hi everybody,
this method works only with USA audience ( e.g aliexpress ship only to USA) or also for other countries?
im interested to try it in Italian niche.
Many thanks!

Can you help me? I spent $10 on fb ads today and have gotten no sales. I know I need tot test it myself but I"m not sure what else to do I set up 3 different ads
 
I have a question:

As most AliExpress sellers "ship within 7 days", how is it then possible to have a product delivered within 2-3 weeks, when only the delivery itself takes that much time.

Can you give me an advice on this, for instance if you have to negotiate with the seller to ship items immediately (I think it will be a bit hard to order single items for a dollar or two from top rated sellers and ask them (just for you) to ship out immediately) or just look for sellers, who ship faster or deliver within a shorter period?

Many thanks on that!
 
As BHW is all about sharing knowledge I have a quick tip for anyone using Aliexpress. :)

Add all your ordered items to your cart via your desktop. Afterwards open the Aliexpress app on your smartphone and place all orders that are saved in your cart at once. You will get an extra discount from Aliexpress for buying via your mobile phone. It's not much but if you order a lot of items you will notice the difference :).

cheers
