How To Target The Right Audience For Your Facebook Ads

By Adam Khan


Purchasing ads on Facebook is a great way to find new customers. Facebook is the most popular social networks, which means your existing customers and a large number of potential customers use Facebook on a daily basis. It is important to use the right strategies to target your audience on Facebook.



Ask yourself what kind of ads would be best. You can either purchase ads that will appear on the right side of users' newsfeeds or purchase sponsored posts, which will appear within their newsfeed. Sponsored posts are more expensive but they will be more likely to grab the attention of your audience.

Facebook users fill out their profiles with information about themselves. This information is then used to create categories of users. You can choose from many categories when publishing your ads but keep in mind that these categories are based on the information shared by Facebook users. If your target audience is not likely to use Facebook often enough to completely fill out their profile, you might have a hard time finding categories that correspond to your audience.

You can create ads or sponsored posts that will take Facebook users to your homepage, to a specific page of your site or to your Facebook page. Taking users to your homepage is a great way to engage new potential customers. Linking your ads to a specific page of your site is ideal if your ads or sponsored posts are about a discount or a product. Taking users to your official Facebook page will help you get more likes and strengthen your presence on Facebook but make sure your ads are not displayed to users who already liked your page.

These tips will help you get the most out of your Facebook advertising campaign. Keep track of the results to make sure you are targeting the right groups.
