Promoted posts on platforms like Facebook or Instagram can achieve up to three times more visibility and significantly higher engagement. They help you reach a broader audience – targeted by age, gender, and location. With rankingCoach’s Social Media Planner, you can easily boost your organic posts and get even more out of your content.

 

Why Is Social Media Advertising Worth It?

In today’s digital world, it’s becoming increasingly difficult to grab the attention of potential customers. Competition is fierce, and attention spans are short. Social media ads help you reach exactly the people that match your business – throughout the entire customer journey. Even before launching a product, you can run a targeted awareness campaign through promoted posts.

The Benefits of Social Ads at a Glance

  • Your customers are already there. Social media platforms offer precise targeting options to reach your ideal audience.

  • Full control. You can adjust budget, targeting, and ad design at any time.

  • Modern ad formats. Carousel ads, lead ads, and story ads open up creative options.

  • rankingCoach supports you. With rankingCoach, you can easily promote your social posts – no need for complex ad managers.

What Does Social Media Advertising Cost?

Costs are flexible and depend on your budget. Common billing models include:

  • CPM (Cost per 1,000 impressions)

  • CPC (Cost per click)

  • Cost per conversion

  • Cost per video view

Factors that influence pricing:

  • Ad quality

Tips for Successful Social Ads

 

  • Define your goals. Do you want to increase reach, generate leads, or drive sales?
