    5 facebook marketing landing page tips.

    Make sure the page:

    Clearly relates to your desired ad copy
    Your Facebook ads should be an extension or a teaser for your landing page. If you plan on having an ad that talks about children’s shoes for sale, make sure the landing page features children’s shoes. Don’t try to get too creative or too cutesy with the ads or the landing pages – keep them relevant to each other.

    Is completely free of pop-ups
    Ideally, you want a clean landing page that sells your product, not someone else’s advertising. Take the time to remove roll over, pop and pop under ads if they are in place on your landing page. If you don’t want to do this, create a whole new landing page specifically for your Facebook ads.

    Uses appropriate graphics
    Remember, Facebook is paying attention to its advertisers’ landing pages very closely. Since it wants ads that enhance user experience and don’t violate policies, make sure your landing page adheres to the rules the site would place on ads.

    Is clear in its intent
    Just as your ad needs to clearly define its purpose, your landing page should, too. This is better for your Facebook approval chances and also for helping close your own sales. Remember, all the traffic in the world won’t make you money. You still have to sell your product or service.

    (Bonus, #5)
    While your landing page will have to meet Facebook standards for your ad to gain acceptance, you also want to make sure your page performs to actually move your visitors closer to business. You can do both.

    I came to this country over 25 years ago as a musician (guitar and lead vocals). While I was playing in Los Angeles / Hollywood and working in recording studio sessions, I found a job with a technology company in Culver City. The music didn't pay the bills, but software sure did! I learned to program in several software languages and began helping people and companies with software applications and database problems.

    Today, I am a full-time Internet Marketer and consultant. I published my first web page in 1995. Since I was programming using Microsoft Technology at the time, and had been for 10 years up to that point, I thought HTML (using a Netscape browser) was ridiculous. Continue Reading
