Why won't Facebook run my ad after it has been approved and its active? What did I do wrong?



How long will I wait for? How are they not running it? No link clicks... Everything have dash n zeros                       
This are many of the questions newbies in Facebook ads users ask themselves when they get stuck on broken ads.

There are many things that can cause your Facebook Advert not to serve                       
Great...  Now you know the problems or here are possible solutions?




·        BUDGET
·        TARGET
·        TOO MUCH EDITS ON ADS WITHIN A SHORT TIME
·        IMAGE          
             
Err, can I address each point? Of course, that’s why I created this excellent article.

BUDGET
Sometimes, people set really low budgets for ads, Facebook will approve it but it will not serve (BY serve, I mean zero impressions or clicks or conversions)                       

TARGET
Your audience may be too low or too broad. e.g. setting an ad and using the following as your audience target
Age range 18 - 20
Interest Twerking
Gender Male

The reach may be too low and Facebook will not serve your ads in such an instance as it it a precise target and the audience for the target may be very low      
                
EDITS
Some people are in the habit of setting up ads and editing it several times when it is approved or before it is approved.

When you set up an ad, Facebook locks your target and begins to feed to that target. If you change the target or budget, confusion begins for Facebook as most ads are not approved manually (the computer approves and serves to your target)                       

IMAGE
This comes in a several phases                       
1. The image may be too small or too big for the that particular ads
e.g.    Page like ads: The recommended size is 1200 x 628
Link clicks is 1200 x 444 (i think, not entirely sure)
Carousel ads is 600 x 600
Slideshow ads is 1200 x 720

When you set up an ad and don't use the recommended image, Facebook will accept it and it can affect your ads delivery, it won't serve.

2. The image may have too much text; Facebook prefers you set images with less text for ads. Once the image has too much text, it becomes irrelevant and affects the ad's serving.

3. Some people use pictures that are against Facebooks policy e.g. nudes. You can be lucky and they'll approve the ads but believe me you're wasting your time!

I think I've said to the best of my knowledge dynamic trendy                       
Check the ad you set up
1. Is it against Facebook's policy?
2. Is the image right for the ad?
3. Is the audience good i.e. targeting
4. Check your budget
5. If you've over edited the ad, just make it inactive and set up another from scratch

Oops! That was a rush.
