]]> Comment on Facebook Ads for Fun (not Profit) by Debra Askanase http://judiciousweb.wordpress.com/2009/05/23/facebook-ads-for-fun-not-profit/#comment-88 Debra Askanase Sat, 18 Jul 2009 17:46:46 +0000 http://judiciousweb.wordpress.com/?p=358#comment-88 Heidi- Good point about not being able to see the Facebook ad before it runs, and that only the target demographic audience will see it in the end. How frustrating and ultimately (I think) a big mistake on Facebook's end that you don't get a sample copy. PPC stands for "pay per click," typically in reference to creating Google adwords (ads) where the sponsor "pays per click-through" from the ad to the sponsor's website. A PPC "expert" or a Search Engine Optimization firm will often customize Google adwords campaigns for customers - helping them craft the best ad and choose the right Google keywords for the ad. Let me know if you ever do it again - I'd love to feature it on my blog as well!

Glad it was useful. For future reference--something to find out is how to OBTAIN a screen shot of your ad. To place an ad, you fill in an online form and upload a photo file. I forget if your actual ad is show to you before you run it, but unless you're in the demographic you've selected for your ad and you <em>happen </em>to see it on your FB page, that is the only way you'll see it. Now here's something I don't know--what does PPC stand for? Deb, thanks for dropping by! Glad it was useful.

I would love see a screen shot of your actual ad, and then a PPC "expert" critique it. That might be an interesting insight. I do believe, however, that most people aren't interested in commerce (of any type, even the nonprofit type) on Facebook. Now. And I agree that ad blindness probably plays into this experiment as well. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this. It's definitely set my mind thinking about nonprofit ads for Facebook and best practices! This is such a great post!
