Simple, but not easy. This is an excellent outline on how to do Facebook advertising profitably. I am doing something similar, but targeting brick n mortar business owners.

Hey Josh, nice article.
I’ve been trying Facebook ads for the last weeks making some changes here and there and trying to tweak my results.

The first day I just promoted my fan page and got around 200 new likes for 3 bucks. At the end of the day I was having good results and I was happy, however I set a maximum of $10 per day, so when the day was about to finish, they decided to just promote the ad a lot more getting less clicks and increasing my CTR and CPM doubling it.

And about the sneaky Facebook, the following day i had something even worst. Got around 300 extra likes, but Facebook decided to change my daily budget from $10 to $20, and they send me an email about that while I was sleeping.

So you know what happened… when I woke up and watched my campaigns, the second day had consumed $20 instead of $10, and of course the CTR and CPM was horrible.

Right now I’m trying with landing pages (OP 2.0) and some high converting affiliates but lowered the daily budget to $3. I made 2 pages, exactly as you’re describing. One with an opt-in form and another directly to my affiliate sales pages. Right now both have been doing similar, the CTR is super (1-3% which I know for Facebook is high) but my CPC is also really high (I didn’t set it, I just allowed Facebook to do it’s “best”).

I’ll certainly post my results once I’ve got them but I wanted to ask, if you usually set your ads by CPC or CPM ? And if it’s done by CPC, do you follow the suggested values from Facebook?

Thanks man. Great article.
