That's a fucking great ROI man, are you using the CPC or CPM Facebook flyers?

And gkg11, how come your flopping so bad?


CPC.

I'm trying to add images to them, but no matter what I try to upload, the image fails to upload. It's starting to piss me off as I believe my CTR would shoot up a lot if I was able to add an image.
 
CTR is horrible, but traffic is cheap as shit so it's worth testing (their quality score doesn't seem to be too developed yet). Anybody else mess with Facebook Flyers? It seems to be converting okay if you pick the right niches (targeting the demographic which for Facebook is EASY). The one thing that really sucks is that there's a $50 daily spending limit...which is actually really really gay. I'm probably going to jack 20 of my friends Facebooks just to use for the flyers.

I hate doing shameless blog promotion, but if you don't know much about the release I wrote a little on it today here.

Probably going to be using a few extra accounts myself - getting a nice ROI on my ads especially considering my limited cpc experience. Let me know if you run into problems with using multiple accounts so I can get more paranoid if you do :)

Yeah, same here. Ads going straight to advertiser are ripping it up. I e-mailed Facebook asking for an account limit increase... see how it goes. Still can't upload images though.
 
Well the Facebook CPM is truly shit, the CPC would definitely work out better. Trouble is, I've also run into the cvv2 and address problem for the CPC Flyers, even though the details work fine for the CPM Flyers...
 
Is the basic flow of a Facebook CPC campaign for everyone else:

- Thousands of impressions and a bunch of clicks in the first 5 min.
- Runs OK for the first 30-60 min.
- Slows down a shitload.
- Very slow after 2-3 hours.

I keep deleting and re-creating campaigns to get the initial boost. And this $50 a day limit is killing me.
 
Have any of you seen a slow down in the amount of impressions you received today (for campaigns since friday or saturday)
 
Delete your campaigns after 3 hours and restart them. Sucks, but works for now. Exploit the fucker while it's new.

Those of you getting images to upload:

- what browser
- what file type image

yep - definitely slows down quite a bit, been deleting and re-adding my ads but think they may be catching on as the impressions are slowing down somewhat, time to change my ads up a bit.
 
Wow, I'm happy to see a new method for CPC pop up. I always love playing with newly released setups. (Although this one is pretty buggy..Heh) Honestly, I've never done well with CPC, but I've been getting a nice ROI so far.

Impressions: 13,605CTR: 0.051Max CPC: 0.05Spent so far: 0.33

Not bad at all for 2 leads at $15/each. I'll take 29.66 in profit any day. :D

Although, just as everyone has been saying, I cannot get an image to upload either. As well, I've restarted now and added a few more campaigns to test. The $50 limit really blows.. but I'm sure Facebook will improve it and amp it up soon, after bugs get worked out.

Take advantage now. :]
 
anyone try adult dating? I don't know if facebook allows it but i didn't see anything stating otherwise in my 30sec search so im going to try and see what happens
