I am trying a Facebook Ad for the first time, and most people seem to like the pay per click option. It's suggesting I pay 1.24 - 3.22 per click. This seems like a lot! How much do you pay per click?

I do the pay per click option and simply set a budget of a dollar amount per day. It decides what price to pay for each click for me to get the most clicks out of my budget.

I guess I'm thinking, if I set $30 lifetime, that's going to be used up on possibly less than 10 new fans? Yikes, those are expensive fans.

Okay, so by doing it that way, you pay every time someone sees your ad. When I was reading various posts about this, a lot of people seemed to like paying per click instead, and to do that, you have to set a cost per click. Anybody out there who does that? 1.24 - 3.22 per click seems like a lot.

How long would recommend running an ad on $30.00? I am gonna try and see if it's worth it. Yes, $1.32 per click is alot!

I was doing it and paying about $1.00 per click. After a week with at $15/day limit I got about 10 new likes/day but zero sales. Now to just figure out how to get those that like our items to click over and purchase!

I'm going to give it a try and see if it works. If not, there is plenty of good free advertising!:)

I was paying 50-33 cents a click. Spent 35.00, got 65 likes and 0 sales.

I don't, because I refuse to pay Facebook. Many of the people I know, don't even look at the ads anymore, or block them completely. So to me, it's a waste of money.
