Facebook Ads Guide By Jonathon Volk – A Meta Review

Posted by Arun Pal Singh on July 7, 2010 in Affiliate Success, Traffic · 2 Comments

What a straightforward and crisp name. It draws attention moment you hear it.

Well! The number one secret of success in affiliate marketing and internet business is TRAFFIC. When you are a small site, you need to pull the traffic either from search engines or get paid traffic from the sites with the traffic.

It makes sense to invest in Facebook for traffic because of the sheer size. It is almost as big as Google now.

If you have been using Facebook you must be aware of the Facebook ads that appear on right hand side. Those sponsored ads can get you a lot of traffic.

Jonathon Volk has come up with a guide about these ads and the title of the guide is “Facebook Ads Guide”.

Very crispy name.

I have been frequent visitor to Jonathon’s blog in the past and naturally when I saw his product in Clickbank Marketplace, I decided to do a meta review.

Facebook Ads Guide is a step by step guide that covers the key stages in effective Facebook ad campaigns. Let us see how it turns out to be.

Creator

Jonathan Volk

Target Audience

Affiliate Marketers with an intent to buy Facebook Ads

Website

http://www.fbadsguide.com

Price

$79, Website mentions it may be increased to $97

Guarantee

Quite strange! The sales letter does not say anything about guarantee [I am not talking about video part]. The guarantee is visible only when you click Add To Cart button. The number of days are not mentioned in the guarantee but because it is a Clickbank product, I assume it to be about 60 days.

Bonuses

Like guarantee, they are also visible on page that loads after clicking the order button. These are the bonuses that you would get with the purchase

A Brief Summary of Facebook Ads Guide

It is a 40 page ebook and the book is divided into six sections[1,2,3]

Web Views

When I looked for reviews around it was nice not to get choked with salesy and promotional reviews. There were but those were very few. Moreover I did not see any negative opinion. All those who read the ebook have found it very useful.

Here is what the web says abut this guide.

Maulana Malik at Sinfonicapr says [1]

It is primarily aimed at affiliate marketers who are just starting to get their feet wet with Facebook ads.

Josh Kot Says [2]

If you want a solid foundation to Facebook ads, then yes, I think the guide is worth buying.

Pauly Math highly recommends it

If you’re an affiliate marketer looking to expand past Google and Yahoo as traffic sources, I recommend checking this eBook out for sure.

Les Trawler at Purrl.net says [4]

…you should therefore consider adding this product to your short-list

Dan at Dans Blog is upbeat about the guide [5]

I think one section where Jonathan really shines and where I learnt the most is properly targeting your demographic and increasing CTR quickly and easily. Combine this with his excellent part on bid strategy and it’s gold.

Internet Business Daily leaves no room for doubt [6]

I suggest if you are new or even decently familiar with Facebook ads that you purchase this ebook

My Analysis

This ebook is about Facebook Ads. So if you are not using nor you intend to use it, you are not a target audience and the book would not benefit you.

If you are or intend to use Facebook Ads, you might want to take a peek. I did not find any other dedicated product on Facebook Ads apart from official Facebook Ads Guide and that is more of technical stuff. There are some posts on few blogs but again they have limitations of space.

The product looks good and seeing the reaction all over the web, I see that users are quite satisfied.

Facebook would really catch in the near future and could become as good as Google Adword or even bigger. Early adaptation is a good move and product would shorten your learning curve.
