Facebook advertising plans

Every successful project must be based on a precise plan and a solid method of work. In the field of e-marketing, in order to ensure success in marketing your product or service, you must know and understand how those advertisements work. Below we will explain the Facebook advertising plans with all their contents, with a detailed explanation of each of:

  • Buying ads with reach and frequency
  • Brand awareness.
  • Optimization at the level of the advertising campaign.

First, we will talk about the “Reach and Frequency” method of advertising. In this way, we will not enter auctions, but rather buy an audience. Ask that the ad be directed to a specific audience with a certain number. Set the cost without auctions permanently, but this method is not available for all advertising accounts, especially new ones.

How does this method work?

  • Go to the Campaigns page.
  • Then click on “Create” and a page titled “Create New Campaign” will appear.
  • The default option “Auction” appears in the “Budget Type” field, which displays all types of advertising campaigns.
  • Click on the arrow, and two options will appear, including “Reach and Frequency”.
  • Some campaigns cannot use this type of advertising. We find the message campaign and other campaigns, as we can see:

  • After pressing the “Continue” button.
  • A page appears with the “Name Campaign” field, we write the name of the campaign, let it be (Nofal Seo)
  • The ads here appear later after the campaign is booked, because campaigns of this type are by reservation in order for the audience to be prepared first and then display the advertisement.
  • Finally, click on the “New Ad Set” button.
  • On the next page, you will see a “schedule” showing the start and end date of the campaign.
  • The audience is also shown. From “Edit Audience” select the desired audience.

  • At the bottom of the page, it asks about the type of advertisement, and several options appear, leaving the default option “Image or Carousel”.
  • When we reach the “Placement” option, we find two options, and they are, as we can see:Then we click on “New Ad Set.” We notice here that the advertisement is not present except for the other campaigns that were shown in the Option with three levels.
