This is a continuation of my earlier post on Facebook promotion.
I have now stopped the promotion to take stock of the results, (and because it was costing me a lot of money). There has been some signups directly from Facebook, (I can track those), but nothing worth the amount of money spent.
I ended up spending about 50 pound, (GBP), this was my budget for this experiment, each 'clicks', (that is users that saw the adverts and came to the sign-up page), cost between 0.2p and 0.8p, (I am not entirely certain why the cost varied so much, I suspect it has to do with the time of day). So, I ended up with about 70 'visitors' and out of those, I got 4 or 5 sign ups.
As you can well imagine this is very expensive for such a low return.
So what next?
I'll wait a little bit and try Google AdWords.
I'll probably wait for the Google+ plugin to be finished...
Probably start some kind of competition, in other words, award the 50 pound to the best post, (per months or per week).
Wait to see if someone else has another suggestion.
*I like number 3 but I want to give google a fair chance to see what comes of it.
I told my gradmntoher how you helped. She said, "bake them a cake!"

Pingback: Journal Home Official Blog - Started facebook promotion (9/21/2011 11h26)
I have always been curious on how to advertise journalhome, the way I see it, there are only two realistic options.Google Adsense or Facebook, I decided to go with Facebook because it is easier to choose the location, gender and user preferences.
