Suffice it to say, this platform gives you access to a huge amount of potential customers you can engage with through Facebook ads.

  • The ability to fully customize your audience, which helps you target the right consumers for your products.

Retargeting: The Power of the Facebook Pixel

When someone visits your website and takes an action, like a purchase, the Facebook pixel is triggered and reports this action. When more and more conversions happen on your website, Facebook gets better at delivering your ads to people who are more likely to take certain actions. You'll also have options to reach those customers again through future Facebook ads. The Facebook pixel’s capabilities also apply to Instagram ads, which we will dive into next…

Instagram Ads

Did you know that you can easily share the ads you run on Facebook on Instagram simply by clicking a single button? It’s true! Therefore, many businesses are opting to run ad campaigns simultaneously on Facebook and Instagram. While Instagram still doesn’t pull in the number of consumers that Facebook does—although Instagram users are still around 500 million monthly users alone—together, their reach is significant. For example, consider the fact that one in five mobile minutes is spent on Facebook and Instagram together. To put that number in context, that is more than the next 10 mobile platforms—combined! In addition, it’s worth noting that Instagram boasts a greater amount of engagement with rates that average 58% higher than those on Facebook and an astounding 2,000% higher than Twitter. 

Instagram is more video and image-heavy when compared with other platforms. The most successful ads on this platform are visually appealing and incorporate visual media into the campaigns. Instagram ads can even link directly to a landing page or product page, which further enhances your chance of meaningful engagement. The cost for Instagram ads averages about the same as Facebook ads.
