Question and Answer Session: Facebook Ads! Win a Free Landing Page!

Posted on August 5th, 2009 By Under Facebook

It’s been a while since I’ve publically taken questions on the blog, so why don’t we take a shot at it now. Got any questions about running Facebook traffic? Want to increase your affiliate marketing revenue through Facebook? Well, now is your chance to? get some good answers. I’ll try to help out as much as I can, but don’t try and ask me what offers I’m running and crap like that. Pay me a few 100k and I’ll tell you that.

The person who asks the most engaging/best question will get a free landing page for any offer of their choice. Most LP builders charge $50 individually for an LP. You get it free just for posting a question!

Ask away! I will answer in another blog post.

    What's the best way of tracking all your FB ads?

    Yes, you can use Ads manager to create 100's at a time….but do you still track individual ads using say T202?

    Any insights into your tracking methods would be great.

    Thanks,

    Simon

    What's your strategy for lowering your CPM bids? At what point do you decide it's time to lower them and by how much? I lowered mine today by 4 cents (still above highest recommended bid), and both CTR and conversions dropped.

    Hi Justin,

    If I'm launching 50 ads, how do I identify which ad brought in the sale using Prosper202?

    The ad that brought in a particular sale will have a unique ID but I won't know which ad that is from. This is unlike PPC where you can associate the unique ID that generated the sale to a particular keyword which enables you to determine which are the profitable keywords. But this doesn't seem possible with Facebook unless you set up a campaign in Prosper202 for each Facebook ad you launch,which is gonna be tedious.

    What do you propose?

    What's your strategy for testing out an offer via facebook to determine if it's worthwhile? For instance, do you direct link and bid high? Pull together a quick landing page for an initial test?

    Also, does Facebook have any indicator like Google's Quality Score that you as a affiliate marketer need to monitor and respond to in order to keep a campaign profitable?

    Thanks, Mike

    Do you ever run offers that require a credit card? Or do you only stick to leads since most people on facebook are not exactly apt to pulling out a credit card..?

  6. Cash says:

    When rolling out an offer what is your mindset? Find an offer then the correct demographic, or stick to demos you know well and choose an offer to fit them?

  7. Do you feel cloaking is necessary to make good money on facebook?

    How do you find new facebook offers to promote? How did you find the offers you are promoting now?

    Thanks Justin. :)

    speaking of cloaking, is the conversion rate higher for cloaked offers? if no, why cloak to other offers … better payouts?

    hi justin, any idea why traffic suddenly stopped after showing for atleast a day to almost 500k impressions? and after adding a whole new campaign, ads would NOT have that much impressions (say only 100 day with a demo of 4M) for me to even do split testing.

    I think someone out there is experiencing the same problem as mine.

    thanks justin.

  11. Dustin says:

    How long would you personally suggest someone to run a campaign before analyzing the data to determine if its a bread winner or not? Zac Johnson also said at one time to bid lower then what FB suggests, are FaceBook ads still profitable if the bid is BELOW their suggested price?

    I asked the simple question because many PPC networks require you to bid the minimum suggested in order to determine where your ad will be placed at. Wasn't sure if the same concept was placed on FB ad serving.

  12. zalds says:

    When the CPM FB ads stop receiving impression, whats the best approach to revive the impression? What's the best way to increase the quality of traffic in facebook? What is the most effective bidding strategy in facebook? How many months/years is your longest running offer in FB? …

    thanks in advance..

    Hey Justin, thanks for taking our questions.

    I have just started playing with Facebook and the first thing I noticed is that my ads keep getting disapproved. I know we are supposed to keep resubmitting them, and I did. Depending on the reviewer that sees your ad, I have been told that you could eventually get them approved.

    From your experience, could an ad with user details (e.g. City, Age) in the Title or Body be ever approved? I am pretty sure it would get an higher CTR than a generic ad, but up to now (I resubmitted 5-6 times already) I wasn't able to have it approved. Am I wasting my time? Have you ever submitted this kind of ads? Were you able to get them approved? What's the "magic number" of resubmits after which you give up and change your ad?

    Thank you!

    What's the best way to create a cloaking system for FB Ads since their reviewers are such sticklers?

  15. Tom says:

    What is the maxium size you make a (facebook) landing page? And how much does landing page file size affects conversions?

  16. [...] With no further need to wait, here are my replies to your questions from this post: [...]

  17. Ghostdog says:

    I'm interested in using the FB ad manager to help cut down the time in resubmitting ads. Does the ads manager help that much than just doing it manually? It seems like if I submit a bunch at the same time, if one ad gets turned down they all do even if they are different offers.

    • Justin Dupre says:

      It does the ad creation automatically. I don't think I need to explain that its faster and less time consuming than doing it all manually.

  18. Brandon says:

    Hey Justin,

    Ok here it goes, why the hell does my campaign throw out a 500% ROI in the first two days, then drops on the third day to 150% and then dies? I really can't explain it. The demographics are large enough that never everyone saw the ad yet. I know it's a winner campaign, but after 2-3 days the steam is completely out. Do I now have to find such a campaign every 3 days?? How do you deal with such a situation?

    I've been wanting to ask you this question a long time ago, but never found the right time to do it.

    thx Justin

    ps. love your freebie friday e-mail list.

    Hi Justin,

    How long do you think the english language market on facebook will be saturate? With all those super affiliate using the platform it will become hard to get a cut of the pie don't you think?

    Thanks
