Improving and optimising your Facebook advertising: Key factors

26 Oct 2011 12:22Submit a commentBizLike
Given Facebook advertising challenges such as 'ad fatigue', there are a number of essential factors that ensure your Facebook advertising campaigns are optimally optimised. There is evidence to show that 'ad fatigue" can negatively affect your Facebook advertising campaigns, within 2-3 weeks.
What does this mean? 'Ad fatigue' dramatically reduces your 'click-through-rate' (CTR). This obviously has a direct impact on any Facebook campaign objectives, such as 'fan acquisition'. Don't let this happen to you - easier said than done? To see how LOW FAT optimises your Facebook advertising.

Identifying when 'ad fatigue' is setting in you need to keep a very close eye on the CTR of your ads and campaigns. A significant drop can be anything from 25% to 50%.

To counter the effects of 'ad fatigue' you need to be able to react rapidly:
  1. Rapid campaign creation
    1. In a recent campaign over 1 month:
      1. 97 Campaigns
  2. Rapid ad variation creation
    1. In a recent campaign over 1 month:
      1. 374 Ads
  3. A/B split testing of your ad variations
  4. Rapid target group creation
    1. In a recent campaign over 1 month:
      1. 26 Target Groups
Other aspects to consider are no different from running standard search 'pay-per-click' campaigns, namely:
  1. 'Click through rate' (CTR) - particularly with Facebook, better CTR's reduce your CPC
  2. 'Cost-per-click' (CPC) - reducing your CPC allows for greater efficiencies and greater numbers of fans based on a fixed budget
  3. 'Cost per fan' acquisition (CPF) - reducing this cost again allows for greater number of fans based on a fixed budget
