Digital SEO Marketing Sunshine Coast - Facebook Ads Lessons to improve your Influence

Digital SEO Marketing Sunshine Coast is not as simple as establishing a website there are of a lot of different Digital SEO Marketing concepts to try and understand yourself as a website owner. It is for this reason I intend to share with you a few lessons that I have found out about Facebook Ads. Why Facebook ads? Because Social media is valuable to Digital SEO Marketing, and because there are a lot of factors about Facebook Ads that I wished I knew when I initially started investing with them.

Lesson # 1 - Mobile platforms are key

When selecting your platform, don't fall into the trap of selecting just the desktop version. As we all are probably aware, most of Facebook users are young, and younger markets practically only use mobile devices. Recent figures from Facebook indicate that almost 50 % of users under the age of 35 only use a mobile device to access Facebook.

Now, it really does depend on your audience, but regardless of whether you are targeting at an older demographic, most will still have mobile devices capable of using Facebook, so don't overlook this option.

What this means is just because you may be on a laptop when you develop and edit an ad, don't fall into the trap of assuming that people will be seeing your ad on a desktop too. This means be sure you look to make sure the ad works for mobile in the preview, and you explore the quantity of ads you want aimed totally to 'mobile.

Lesson # 2 - Image v Text

This is something that I really had to remember when first starting off. Facebook Ads must contain no more than 20 % text, it is Facebook's way of making sure your ads actually are not being too obtrusive and annoying, so you need to ensure that you have a nice image in your ad and your font isn't too large.

Something that I have the tendency to use is the grid tool. It is provided by Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/ads/tools/text_overlay. And it will give you an indication of just how much text you are making use of in the ad.

So be certain to keep this in mind and your ads will have more results, and less automatic rejection by Facebook.

Lesson # 3 - Location, Location, location - Don't waste your money

If you have made a Facebook ad before you would know that you need to select a location. So if you are a local Sunshine Coast Business then you will want to set the location to Sunshine Coast. It just makes good sense, right?

But what lots of folks overlook is that they choose by default the option for "Everyone in this Location".

So I would like to explain to you what that actually means. - 'everyone in this location' means every single person in whose Facebook says that they are actually in Sunshine Coast will be possibly targeted by your ad. This is pretty specific, but still broad enough to where you may be wasting money.

People often don't realise, but that 'everyone' button is actually a drop down option, and from there you can chose if you want people who live in Sunshine Coast, as well as just people visiting.

So depending on your business enterprise, you may want to be targeting people that are visiting or even on holiday in Sunshine Coast. By selecting the option for this you can make sure you are getting in touch with the specific people that will hopefully be engaging with your business, and therefore get a better engagement rate on your investment.

But what it also means that if you just keep choosing 'everyone in this location' then you are by default wasting some of your ad's reach on people that are just visiting.

So don't forget this option exists, and have a think about what options are going to promote your business.

Hopefully these few tactics and pieces of advice will help you to save some effort, time, and even some money when it comes to Facebook ads and your Internet Marketing efforts in Sunshine Coast.
