I wonder how effective Facebook advertising really is. Google ads are effective because It cheats and replaces organic search results with ads. I’m searching for a certain product and it will charge the company a buck to save me 2 clicks. But if I see an Ad on Facebook it’s just an ad and I assume it’s for some scammy establishment I’d definitely not actually trying to buy anything and I don’t see how they convert viewers to buyers.
