    Has anyone here ever paid to advertise on Facebook to promote their YouTube's Facebook page?

    I was looking at a few of the videos for Mad Max in YouTube's search results and noticed that most them have more share and views from Facebook than any other place.

    This got me thinking that I might have to invest in some Facebook page promotion. What I have found so far is the for minimum of 5 dollars a day Facebook says you can receive 4 to 16 page likes.

    This of course will add up to 35 dollars for five days and if you do receive the minimum likes would it be worth it in the long run?

    I was using the vidIQ Google Chrome extension and YouTube search to look for what people are searching for in the video I am posting. If you look at the image you will see two videos and right under each one it show YouTube, Facebook and Twitter. If you hover your mouse over each one you will see a breakdown of likes, shares and comments except for Twitter that only shows Tweets.

    This morning showed more Facebook activity than YouTube. So, because of this I am going to have to do a bit more research just to see if promoting my Facebook page is a good idea or not.

    Yeah I'm using the Heartbeat extension too along with vidIQ and Virool Videospy. Heartbeat has it's bugs, but it has a lot to offer. You should definitely check them out.

    i've done this on facebook and got very few responses my guess is you have to pay more than the bare minimum to really see results. I think from my campaign I got 2 likes on my page. Of course this could be because I had no idea what I was doing.

    If you don't mind me asking, how much did Facebook end up charging you in the end?

    The first time I tried it I made a picture up basically a thumbnail from one of my videos and facebook took £5 from me for the day then came back to me and said that there was too much text in the picture too half the money and gave me some poor stats oh how many people had maybe seen the picture. I only did the day long advert as I don't really have the funds to advertise properly I think that maybe the facebook adds are not ment for youtubers

    Okay so I went and boosted a post I am trying to promote for this October.

    [​IMG]

    I choose to go with a longer boost to reach as many people as possible so hopefully I'll get more likes and votes for Stilbon's 31 Days of Horror promotion.

    I'll update after the boost has ended and share the results..

    cool, takee advantage of the tags and selecting countries but also watch how many people see it, i think i also narrowed it down even further to people who buy or see to be interested in video games or something like that. Its a pretty extensive ad feature.

    I just got an email telling me my boost was not accepted. Part of the problem was they don't like anything that take ppl off Facebook and that is what my boost did so I guess I try and change a few things to see if it will be accepted next time. But I have to walk the dogs first, lol!

    I think its too much text in the thumbnail. Try making a new thumbnail for the video but just for the length of the add i guess then change it back :grin:

    edit: they have a little feature that allows you to make sure you words arent 20% or more of the thumbnail

    You can also change and edit some of the ads conditions and stuff while its running. I thought that was cool.

    A otger option you could do is like video's the collaboration option. If you can find pages with similar interest like gaming there is always something you could do for each other. If people get to know your page then the more will see your video's/Channel. I run a Gaming page together with my wife and by reaching out others it helped me alot in growth for both :)

    I am pretty sure Facebook has a policy of 20% text on a thumbnail only. I used to boost my facebook posts about my giveaways, but I think Facebook cheated it unless you make your target audience specific. It gets a lot of like but no actual views on my website. I did promote my website, and that gets a lot better. Do not boost.
