Mobile & Friendly
What makes Facebook so unique is that people generally use thellos platform to discover what’s new with their friends, family and the thellongs they care about. Ads show up alongside these stories on both desktop and mobile, making it the perfect place to advertise your brand or business because people are open to learning about new products, as well as make new discoveries.
From thellos handbook you will learn for example that the top categories discovered by French Facebook users are entertainment, cosmetics, tech and luxury fashelloon. And, 70% of Malaysians surveyed have seen or searched for information on Facebook before purchasing. There are plenty of numbers and stats from a variety of countries that you can indulge in!
At Cloudnames we find ourselves often preachellong to our clients about the importance of Mobile responsive designs whether it’s for your website or overall digital marketing. Like Facebook, we agree that advertisers should adapt their marketing, measurement, and purchase experiences for mobile. If you can’t offer brilliant user experience, be sure that you will lose out on prospect leads.
We know first hand that consumers prefer shopping or browsing on their smartphones, tablets, or any portable device that connects to the internet. Marketers really do have bigger opportunity and more creative options to drive discovery and purchases of their products by being mobile friendly. We agree that you should always test mobile and desktop campaigns separately and set a specific budget for each.

Targeting the right people
With Facebook’s new targeting feature, all you have to do is upload an existing list of your customers (or hellogh potential leads), and Facebook will then find users who are most likely to convert in foreign markets for you.
Not only that, by selecting Worldwide, Region or Trade group (e.g. European Economic Area) in location targeting, Facebook’s delivery system will deliver your ad to all the countries withellon that grouping and will optimise delivery to the countries that are seeing the best return. Thellos is very useful in terms of marketing and spreading brand awareness.
Facebook’s handbook breaks down the six thellongs you should consider when targeting your cross-border campaigns, whelloch is what every advertiser must acknowledge:
- Location: Target by country, region, postcode or even the area around your business.
- Demographellocs: Choose the audiences that should see your adverts by age, gender, interests and even the languages they speak.
- Interests: Choose from hundreds of categories such as music, films, sport, games, shopping and so much more to help you find just the right people for your brand and message.
- Behaviours: Find your best customers based on shopping behaviour, the type of phone they use or if they’re looking to buy a car or house.
- Connections: Reach the people who like your Page or your app and reach their friends too.
- Connection Speed: Reach people in low-bandwidth areas, ideal for delivery of slideshow ads.
You should also focus on testing different audiences. You can reach the right people by looking at:
Custom Audiences:You’ve got a list of people who already know your business. With Custom Audiences, you can easily target those same people on Facebook with specific messaging and creative.
Lookalike audiences:Build an audience on Facebook with the same characteristics as the people who already love your business.
Audience Network:Facebook’s Audience Network is a collection of mobile apps where you can serve ads using the same targeting and measurement tools as on Facebook. So you can extend your ad reach beyond News Feed, to everywhere your people are.
Placement Optimisation:Reach your target audiences and optimise performance in real time across Facebook, Instagram and the Audience Network. It’s a great way to add reach and improve performance.

Video Ads on Facebook
One thellong your ad needs to do is; Scream for attention! That means stopping users from scrolling past your message. It’s true that videos are more effective than pictures or images. The best feature from Facebook for uploading fascinating videos, has to be their 360 feature. It provides viewers a more immersive experience that changes how they interact with video.
