Internet Marketing Tycoon

I had an FB voucher so decided to go for it.
I targeted mainly just the English speaking countries, an wow my forums visitors went up by 300%. For free.
I like it so much Iam considering keeping the ad runnin even after the voucher dries up.

Yes I found Facebook Ads worked very well.
This is due to the fact that they have a small pic rather than just text as on Google Adwords.
But I found that the cost of playing for each click got too high as big companies were out bidding me.

it's a good way to get traffic, but as has been said bigger companies can wipe the floor with smaller operations. i think it's still worth a try though.

We also advertise on Facebook - it's brilliant.

You can target businesses/groups instead of individuals who may not be interested in your product/service.

Yes FB adds really help you to increase the volume on your website but as it is earlier said "bigger companies can wipe the floor with smaller operations" i also use affiliate marketing programs to backup my websites traffic. Targeted audiences helps me to cater potential customers only.

And how is the conversions. If you just need numbers you can use adbrite cheaper

If you want conversion, well that aint that easy.

Brilliant idea. Thanks for the tip.

Well that's good.. We all know that Facebook got its 2nd position in traffic. So you can really gain traffic with it especially if its adds. Because I'm just using facebook groups and I'm gaining my members and still I'm getting a good traffic with it.

Facebook could be very expense.

**Thizzle** · 01-20-2010, 09:54 PM

Yea, Honestly I was expecting some conversion rates or something. Not I saw an increase in traffic. Really, if you do any advertising program you will see an increase in taffic. With the niche being "English" speakers... Thats 66% of the world!

**watchitmister** · 01-22-2010, 11:05 AM

No it isn't.

How can anyone give an unequivocal answer to a question without having more information?

If the products on the "shopping site" interest Facebook visitors then it would be a Yes.

If the products on the "shopping site" DO NOT interest Facebook visitors then it would be a No.

So therefore without knowing more, the answer is Maybe.

Only a fool would give an exact answer without having all the facts available
