These are the basic processes for the simplest Facebook ads
Facebook Data Analytics
In a variety of data,Ad spend, post likes, views, clicks, engagement ratesAnd so on data is more concerned about the content, but some data will often give people some misleading, people can not correctly understand and use the data to take the right strategy. Here's a look at the deeper implications of the top five data metrics.
First, the number of Facebook followers
The illusion of the number of fans is that the number of people who will read any content, the higher the exposure will naturally be, of course, not that the number of fans is useless, all the fans are potential customers, but your fans can go through the conversion process, otherwise it is just a number.
What's more, it's not how many fans you have, how much exposure will your content have, 怼 how can your ads get the exposure that comes from the number of fans of people's online stars?
The number of fans is not the key to the problem, the focus is on your interaction with them, which is one of the key evaluation criteria for your content and products to be under-valued.
Second, ad views
The number of views means the number of times an ad has been shown.The data was so watery that it was likely that the same person had watched it twice on a different device, and the statistics were calculated twice。 This is highly likely because your ad is running with audience goals.The biggest use of this data is to make you feel the value of your advertising spend.
Combining target conversion rates with views can not only help you judge your ad's effectiveness more effectively, but also compare your interests after you've done any tests and adjustments.
So when you run your ads, make the most of itPixels (Facebook pixel is actually very simple, is a piece of code, play a role in tracking the behavior of users in your site, understand the user's actions on your site, such as: tracking which users browsed which pages;)It's a very basic and necessary task, and without it, you won't know exactly how the conversion will work unless you don't have any other sources of site traffic and only serve a single ad.
CPC and CPM costs
CPM (thousands of exposure costs) and CPC (cost per click) are commonly used methods of billing online advertising, both google and Facebook.
Bringing quality results with low advertising costs is believed to be what everyone wants to achieve, however... Don't spend money and want to have traffic, don't you have points in your heart?
Reducing advertising costs is indeed one way to optimize advertising, but only if advertising is on the road to return on investment, the wrong priority, the pursuit of lower advertising costs is meaningless, the focus is still on the goal of conversion.
Fourth, the total number of views of fan pages
Users are browsing for friends or information from around the world on Facebook, unless your page is running a sweepstakes, promotions, contests, etc.Otherwise, most fans don't spend their time on fan pages at all.
Therefore, when evaluating the effectiveness of fan page promotion, don't focus solely on the number of views, even if there are ads, exposure may not be much better.
Post participation interactive report will be a better indicator of promotional effectiveness and content, from which you can also grasp more data than just a string of numbers, such as interaction rate, click, message sharing.
Five., the scope of the post
Posts cover the number of Facebook users who look at a particular post. The more users involved naturally indicates the higher the exposure, but the same reason, exposure does not mean that users and posts have to be enlarged, priority to consider or participation,If you really care about how your fans feel, you'll naturally get a better reach, and the opposite may get worse.
The scope tells you how many people see the content of the post, and post interaction can tell you the number of participants, these indicators can make you closer to the user's heart, if the participation is not large, the scope is also a meaningless thing.
In addition, user statistics can tell you about the demographics of your fans, and you can know exactly if you're in contact with the right people, including gender, age, and country city.
Written at the end:That's it?Of course not, Facebook's marketing there are many, many skills and methods worth learning, we will continue to detail with you!Hope you can pay attention to share Oh
