Target Radius – 10, 20, 50 miles
Precise Interest Targeting (No Hashtag)
•Precise interests are the likes and interests people have shared in their Facebook profiles. •Precise Interest targeting is intended for advertisers with carefully managed lists of specific interests, or those seeking to optimize their targeting at an extremely detailed level.
Example Advertiser: Ski Resort
Topic Targeting (Hashtag)
Topics (indicated with a # symbol) combine overlapping precise interests to enable easier targeting. For example, topic #skiing covers precise interests downhill skiing, alpine skiing, etc. If you know that your ideal audience is likely to have a particular set of interests, but don’t need to manage a complicated list of keywords, Topic targeting is a simple way to reach your customers without having to select every relevant term separately
Example Advertiser: Seller of ski and snowboard equipment and jackets
Broad Categories
•Broad categories combine interests and other profile content users have shared to create simple, high-level groups that you can easily target. With Broad Category targeting, interests like “Skiing” would be combined with snowboarding, and skateboarding into a category for people who like “Extreme Sports” •Target Broad Categories if you want your message to easily reach a range of people with shared characteristics, without managing very specific interests.
Example Advertiser: Sports Drink, Alternative Rock Band CD
Connection Targeting Advanced Connection Targeting: Target audiences who have engaged with your app or RSVP’d an event, or did not do the above.
When you select this option, social content (“Paul likes this page”) is displayed with your ad, making it more relevant and personal, as it implies endorsement by a friend.
Advertise to connections: Have an exclusive deal, offer or announcement Advertise to non-connections: Attract Page Likes
Advanced Targeting
Think about targeting if you sell or promote: •Diamonds around the holidays •Newly Built Homes or Townhouses •Night clubs •Home Equity Loans

Should I Do CPC?
You only pay for clicks; with CPM you’re paying for impressions; targeting those who may not be interested in your product. CPC programs typically get you more clicks. CPC ads can get preferred placement, deliver more clicks and higher CTR. But, it’s CPC, not cost-per-like. You may be paying for clicks who do not like your page.
Should I do CPM
Paying for optimized impressions is the best way to achieve your goal if you’re advertising a Page, event or app. It ensures your ad and sponsored stories will show to the people who are more likely to take the action you want. But, it’s CPM; some days you may not get clicks or likes. The objective is exposure, and FB will ensure you reach your budget. It’s suggested that you use CPM when attracting audiences to like your page or app.
Or, Let Facebook Automatically Optimize Bidding
Auto CPM
Auto CPC
Facebook will automatically run more successful ads (CTR) more often, and less successful ads less often. Facebook’s version of quality score!
Bidding Strategies • Goals: High CTR (click-thru rate), Low CPC • Begin bidding low; capture as much data as possible, create benchmarks; set the
stage for testing • FB will reward you for high CTR by lowering your CPC. Remove or tweak non-
performing ads • Bid higher for specific targeting (more competition); bid lower for broader
targeting • For high performers (CTR over 1%), begin lowering bids and keep an eye on
impressions- again good performers get preference
• Fine tune audience targeting, messaging, and bids for non-performing campaigns or ads
