Affiliate Dogma : Affiliates -> Sales -> Profits

Face Book Ads - A Quick Update

I made a sale £1.68 commission. Oooh I can retire.

But OK stats fans - what does that sale mean.

I have lost money (so far)

Date Imp. Clicks CTR (%) Avg. CPC ($) Avg. CPM ($) Spent ($
11/11/2007 17274 42 0.24 0.02 0.06 1.00
11/09/2007 20573 59 0.29 0.02 0.04 0.91
11/08/2007 48361 170 0.35 0.01 0.05 2.24
11/07/2007 1862 11 0.59 0.04 0.24 0.45
11/06/2007 11125 10 0.09 0.02 0.02 0.17

Ok so totting up the spend we see that I have spend $4.77 and made £1.68

Converting $ to £ using xe.com that works out at about £2.31 - a grand loss of 63 pence.

 Althought this is a very small trial I believe that it shows that facebook ads may have potential.

As I am PPC ing direct to merchant I am actually missing out on the possibility of using Facebook to build mailing lists through competitions and freebies (I am doing this trial next)

Will keep you posted.
