How to Increase Your Facebook Ad CTR and Pay WAY Less Per Click

You're doing Facebook advertising. You're paying an arm and a leg. Why? Because no one's clicking on your ads. Hi, everyone.

I'm Neil Patel, and today I'm going to teach
you how to improve your Facebook ad click thru rate. There's two options that you have when you're
buying Facebook ads. It's either you pay per impression or you
pay per click. Most people like paying per click because
why would you want to pay when people aren't coming to your website? But, there's an issue.

If you're not getting enough clicks, paying
per click through is very expensive. Generally speaking, I found it to be cheaper
to pay per impression, and then you, yourself optimize for click thru rate. The way you optimize it is one: you focus
on having a really amazing image that pops out. If your image just blends in with Facebook,
no one's going to see it or click on it.

So, have a bright image that stands out. If you don't want to do a bright image, I
found that using images that blend in with Facebook's color scheme also generate a lot
of clicks because then they don't look like ads. The second thing you want to do is optimize
your text. If your text doesn't have emotion or shocking
value, less people are going to click through.

For example, let's say you're a casino. I don't know why I'm going to give this example,
but it's just standing out in my mind. And let's say you're competing against Double
Down Casino. If your ad copy was, "So-And-So Quit Double
Down Casino and What Happened Next Will SHOCK.

YOU!", You're curious. You may click through. Or, for example, if your ad copy is, "7 Benefits
of Green Tea. #6 Will Amaze You!", I'll be like, "I want to know the amazing benefits
of green tea.

What's number six? Why is it gonna amaze me?" If you optimize your images and your text,
you're gonna get more clicks. Last but not least, what you want to do is
keep rotating up who you're advertising to. When you're picking your audiences within
Facebook, it allows you to target. If it's really small and you keep showing
the same person ads over and over and over and over again, it's ad fatigue.

They're not going to keep clicking on it,
which means you either have to rotate up your ad images on a regular basis or you're gonna
have to pick new people to advertise to. As long as you follow those steps, you're
gonna get better click thru rate. Make sure you pick the option in Facebook
where you're paying per impression, and your cost for Facebook ads will go down..
