Facebook Ads Targeting Strategies

By Adam Khan


Facebook is an amazing marketing tool. Besides creating a page for your brand, you can have your ads featured on the social platform to reach out to new potential clients. Getting your ads featured on Facebook is an important investment, which is why you need to make sure your audience is properly targeted.



There are different ways to advertise on Facebook. You can create an official page for free, spend money on sponsored posts that will appear in the newsfeeds of targeted users or purchase ads that will appear on the right of the newsfeeds. Decide on the best advertising strategy and ask yourself which page the sponsored posts or ads should take users to. You can for instance use ads to drive more traffic to your website or to lead Facebook users to your official page.

Facebook will give you the possibility to choose the audience you want to target with your ads or with your sponsored posts. You can choose more than one category but keep in mind that the number of people who see your ad depends on the budget you set for your campaign. If you have a limited budget, use as many filters as possible to define a smaller target audience instead of choosing broader categories to find more potential customers.

The categories are based on age, geographic location, gender or interests. The geographic location feature is a great way to target a local audience. You can also define your niche based on their age or their interests. In the advanced targeting feature, you will get the possibility to target your users depending on the display language they have chosen for Facebook. You can for instance target an English-speaking audience or a Spanish-speaking group so you can display an ad in their language.

Take the time to define your target audience so you can get better results from your Facebook marketing campaign. Check the results on a regular basis to make sure you are efficiently engaging users with your campaign.
