For many business owners, though, it\u2019s the next step that ends up feeling downright overwhelming: finding customers. With limited budgets for advertising, it can be difficult to figure out which of the advertising heavy hitters to start with, Facebook and Instagram versus Google Ads.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s important to note here that both platforms have benefits that complement each other, so it\u2019s a wise idea to consider both platforms when advertising a business. However, it\u2019s understandable that newer business owners may be more hesitant to spend heavily on advertising right away and thus would need to choose one over the other initially.<\/p>\n<p>In this guide, we\u2019ll discuss important steps to take before starting an ad campaign, which businesses benefit most from a particular advertising provider and best practices for Facebook and Instagram Ads versus Google Ads.<\/p>\n<p>Want a quick rundown of the businesses and considerations we\u2019ll be discussing in this article?

That is huge! While social media sites are already mobile-friendly, it\u2019s extremely important that your website is ready for mobile users as well.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll want to ensure that your content is consumable via a mobile browser and that your site loads as quickly as possible to keep users looking at your website.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Carefully_consider_your_audience\"><\/span>4. Carefully consider your audience<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Once you\u2019ve got your social media profiles and website up and running, it\u2019s time to think about the customers you\u2019re trying to attract and how your business fits into specific media types. Facebook\/Instagram are primarily visual communication mediums, so social media advertising tends to favor businesses with appealing aesthetics.<\/p>\n<p>Google Ads, on the other hand, are heavily text-based. Ask yourself which advertising type, images\/videos or text, would best fit your business and the audience you want to attract.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Facebook_and_Instagram_Ads_versus_Google_Ads\"><\/span>Facebook and Instagram Ads versus Google Ads<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>As your business grows, it would certainly be helpful to use both advertising platforms to continue future growth. With that in mind, let\u2019s discuss the strengths of each advertising platform below.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_should_you_consider_Facebook_and_Instagram_Ads\"><\/span>Why should you consider Facebook and Instagram Ads?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>With <a href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/statistics\/264810\/number-of-monthly-active-facebook-users-worldwide\/\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow external noopener\">2.93 billion monthly active users<\/a> as of the first quarter of 2022, Facebook and Instagram boast an enormous audience. So, to ensure that paid social media ads are seen by relevant audiences, these Meta social media platforms offer robust granularity to allow businesses to target their ideal customers.<\/p>\n<p>Users on social media tend to share their most important life events, from their relationship status to favorite vacation spots and important milestones (graduations, children, weddings, etc). This content allows Facebook and Instagram to categorize users into detailed audience types and serve ads that fit their interests.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, with Facebook and Instagram being highly visually-based platforms, it\u2019s often easier to immediately catch a user\u2019s eye. Ads on these Meta platforms blend in with other posts in a user\u2019s feed, so while images can be effective advertisements, you may want to consider a GIF or short video to really stand out.<\/p>\n<p>Given the granular, visual nature of Facebook and Instagram advertising, a few examples of businesses that thrive on social media are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Clothing companies<\/li>\n<li>Beauty and skincare<\/li>\n<li>Food and beverage (for example, restaurants that have strong visual aesthetics and online community)<\/li>\n<li>Technology providers (hardware, software and services)<\/li>\n<li>Home goods<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Benefits_of_Facebook_and_Instagram_Ads\"><\/span>Benefits of Facebook and Instagram Ads<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Social media is a fantastic method for retargeting potential customers, with a 20% higher retargeting conversion rate vs <a href=\"https:\/\/sharpspring.com\/\" link=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow external noopener\">search engine advertising<\/a>. It\u2019s also much easier to grab attention quickly, as Facebook and Instagram are heavily image-based.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the granularity and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/business\/insights\/tools\/audience-insights\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow external noopener\">audience insights<\/a> available are second-to-none. Is your product aimed at a younger audience, for example? Facebook and Instagram advertising makes it easy to reach those groups.<\/p>\n<p>Another benefit of social media advertising is that your ads are not dependent on search terms. The ads that you choose to run will display for the intended audience without requiring the user to search for anything.<\/p>\n<p>And finally, the return on investment (ROI) on social media tends to outpace the ROI of other more traditional marketing methods, due to the granularity offered by Facebook and Instagram ad targeting.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tips_for_advertising_on_Facebook_and_Instagram\"><\/span>Tips for advertising on Facebook and Instagram<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Ready to give Facebook and Instagram advertising a try?<\/p>\n<p>Here are a few recommendations on how to be as successful as possible:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Brands have 1-2 seconds to grab attention. Therefore, branding and product benefits (emotional or functional) must be clear from the start.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid using static content for ads. Gifs or video ads tend to grab interest more readily than images alone.<\/li>\n<li>Advertising the same product repeatedly without any refresh is not well-received by customers. Keep your content creative and fresh.<\/li>\n<li>Ads that are more informal video creative tend to perform the best (versus heavily-scripted ads).<\/li>\n<li>Have a solid call to action (CTA) that leads to your website or ecommerce shop.<\/li>\n<li>Keep video ads short, around 15-30 seconds.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_should_you_consider_Google_Ads\"><\/span>Why should you consider Google Ads?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p>Google is often the first name given when considering online advertisement platforms.<\/p>\n<p>Launched in October 2000, Google\u2019s experience and tenure in the online advertising space is a powerful force to be reckoned with. And, with over <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oberlo.com\/blog\/google-search-statistics\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow external noopener\">8.5 billion<\/a> daily searches, Google is in the unique position of being able to serve ads to an audience that is actively searching for information, products and services.<\/p>\n<p>Leveraging their ongoing machine learning tool, RankBrain, Google is constantly learning and figuring out which search results are most useful. This means that ads served through Google\u2019s search network are tailored specifically for audiences most likely to find that advertisement useful.<\/p>\n<p>Businesses that may find Google Ads helpful include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Service-based businesses (salons, landscapers, home renovation, etc.)<\/li>\n<li>Local businesses wanting to appear on <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.hubspot.com\/marketing\/how-to-leverage-near-me-searches\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow external noopener\">\u201cnear me\u201d searches <\/a>(restaurants, hotels, etc.)<\/li>\n<li>Ecommerce companies<\/li>\n<li>Dropshipping providers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Benefits_of_Google_Ads\"><\/span>Benefits of Google Ads<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>While social media certainly has a large audience segment, Google is the most widely used search engine in the world, accounting for a <a href=\"https:\/\/gs.statcounter.com\/search-engine-market-share\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow external noopener\">92% of the market share<\/a> for all devices. That\u2019s massive.<\/p>\n<p>Because of this massive market share, Google Ads typically offers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.business.com\/articles\/6-reasons-why-your-business-should-be-using-google-adwords\/\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow external noopener\">better lead generation <\/a>versus social media advertising on its own. With over <a href=\"https:\/\/www.internetlivestats.com\/one-second\/#google-band\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow external noopener\">100k searches per second<\/a>, it\u2019s easy to see how Google can get more eyes on your ads.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, with how the Google advertising network displays, Google ads are highly-targeted towards the location of the person searching.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Tips_for_advertising_on_Google_Ads\"><\/span>Tips for advertising on Google Ads<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Target <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wordstream.com\/long-tail-keywords\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow external noopener\">long-tail keywords<\/a> when choosing keywords to help your ads better target the desired customers.<\/li>\n<li>Use local targeting options if your business or services are only offered regionally.<\/li>\n<li>Optimize your website\u2019s landing page to have a strong and clear CTA to entice customers to buy.<\/li>\n<li>Plan out a clear business goal for your ads.
