The Best Facebook Ad Targeting Methods

By Adam Khan


Spending money on Facebook ads is a great investment for your online marketing campaign. You need to take the time to define your audience and choose the audience you want to target through your Facebook ads to get better results.



Ask yourself what kind of ads would be best. You can either purchase ads that will appear on the right side of users' newsfeeds or purchase sponsored posts, which will appear within their newsfeed. Sponsored posts are more expensive but they will be more likely to grab the attention of your audience.

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.
