My experiences about advertising on Facebook

Facebook has 1.591.000.000 active members (January 2016) and represent a significant place for growing your community, build relationships, and for advertising your business, otherwise is not being provided for business purpose.

The benefits of being a Facebook member are:

-         You have possibility to add and share text, images, videos and applications on your profile and timeline

-         You can join groups within the network that interest you (or make your own group)

-    You can ask anybody to be your friend and vice versa

-    You are able to meet new people, build relationships, improve visibility for your company, and discover new opportunities for more business

-         You can spread a word for your business to find out new clients or projects

-         You can renew business contacts you’ve lost touch with

Advertising on social networks can be effective, but demand following specific rules. Facebook is not exception from that rule:

-         It’s important when you make a business Facebook profile not to make too formal/professional and not too informal profile

-         Try to connect to people, to build relationship first, and later, indirectly, try to involve them into your business

-         Do not put ads aggressively, your gateway link and/or your profile may be blocked

-         Use keywords like “Make money”, “Work from home”, “Internet Marketing”, etc to find groups where you’ll put your ads

-         Read Descriptions about every group to find out exactly is that group allows putting that kind of ads you intent to

-         Statistics say that the optimal time to put an ad on Facebook is Tuesday, at 12AM CST (mostly for US citizens), and believe me, on my experience, it is true

-         Try to use Auto poster, an application who puts ads when you want and where you want, in case you are not absent, for instance.
