[3] Optimisation for Ad Delivery – Choose how you want us to deliver ads to people based on your goals. E.g. If you choose to optimize for link clicks, the ad will be delivered in a way that is optimized for the purpose of getting link clicks on the add, for as small cost as possible.

[4] Bid amount – Your bid amount determines how effectively your ad delivery can be optimized. Your bid competes in an auction with other advertisers targeting the same audience. You can either specify a value manually or let the facebook system determine the best possible amount automatically.

[5] When you get charged for ads – This option determines when you pay for your ad. For many optimization goals, you’ll pay each time your ad is served (known as an impression). Some optimization goals also let you choose between impressions and actions (such as link clicks or post engagements).

[6] Ad scheduling – You can schedule your ads for specific hours and days of the week. Works only with lifetime budgets.

[7] Delivery type – You can choose between standard or accelerated delivery. Standard delivery is the recommended choice for a majority advertisers. Accelerated delivery can work better for promoting time-sensitive events and quickly reaching a target audience. Manual bid pricing is required for accelerated delivery.

AD

Basic settings

[1] Format – choose the format of your ad: Single photo or Carousel. The Carousel format allows you to showcase products across multiple carousel cards. Adverts in the Carousel format don’t cost any more than single-image or video adverts.

[2] Add a card at the end with your Page profile picture

[3] Website URL

[4] Text – the text of the ad

[5] Headline – your headline text will appear differently depending on the placement of your ad. Check the previews to make sure your headline looks the way you want in the placements it appears in.

[6] Description – where it appears, the link description is a short piece of additional text used to emphasize why one might want to visit your website.

[7] Fanpage – the facebook page to which you want this ad assigned

[8] Product set – the product set to which you want this ad assigned

TIP: The Add field button allows you to add a string of code that adapts to advertised content. E.g. If a {{product.description}} string is put into the headline field, it will cause ads to display the advertised product’s description in place of the string.

Advanced options

[9] Call-to-action button – choose what will be written on the ad’s CTA button
