I find it amazing that although my list of advertisers is super long, not a single company on there provides a service that's remotely relevant to me or sells something that I would ever buy.
In fact, I've never clicked on an ad on Facebook. Not because I hate ads (I'm ambivalent about them) but because I've never seen anything relevant.
For all of the hype around how persuasive Facebook advertising is supposed to be, to me their ads and personalization are no better than random noise.
- ocdtrekkie 8y agoI found some interesting points in the list. Bear in mind these are advertisers who got your info outside of Facebook. So while car dealerships are fairly prevalent across the board, I found most of them in my list were dealerships from the brand of car I own. Clearly somewhere along the line of purchasing my car, my email address got associated with "people who buy that kind of car", though I found it odd so many dealerships not in my local area were on the list.
