Top comment (for me): Hello Zuck, I would like to ask that when our facebook fanpage's reach will be come back? its too frustrating having 100k -likes with only 1k, 2k reach ,& 1m likes with only 10k, 20k reach .. sometimes too low Don't destroy our hard work and efforts, we want organic reach back !!! im not the only one who is unhappy with pages post reach . , Hope u are not ignoring my comment . thanks (i also wanted to know that is there any source to reach you ? if there is, i want to know..and if none..do establish one... a good idea can come from anywhere..from anyone.. ) I've also experienced this, you're only able to reach 5-10% of your fans without paying. Only way of getting a message out to all your fans is to "boost" your post, which will cost you around 0.015 EUR per like the page has. [1] And on top of that if you ever used Facebook ads to get likes to your page, a majority of those are fake. [2] [1] Based on my rough calculations on a couple of pages I run.

at my company, like many other companies... we've found that advertising on facebook is almost pointless (the paid adverts). the actual engaged customer return you get back is not enough to justify the cost. Think about it, how many users are on facebook chatting with friends, see an advert, and suddenly say, "gee, i'm going to go buy that!". It doesn't happen often.

  Facebook's display ads won't be profitable for every direct response advertiser, but they are incredibly effective. Have you tried working with third parties like Nanigans or Tellapart to optimize your ads?

    > but they are incredibly effective No they are not. They are only effective for very specific and narrow Brand promoting. Email marketing, Bing and Google, and Amazon ads are all far, far more effective than Facebook ads are, or ever will be. You can "Boost" a facebook post, get 100's of thousands of views/impressions and 1000's of likes on it. Yet, maybe a small handful of users actually convert into a sale. That is simply not worth the money nor time. And of the users who have "liked" your ad, very few actually engage again unless you "Boost" another post. There have been countless write-ups about this supposed "Facebook sanctioned click-net" of users who somehow "like" everything yet never actually engage.
