As a web designer it took me many months before I succumbed to a barrage of peer pressure and eventually joined the fabled 'Facebook'. Also known as 'My Space' for adults.

I recently noticed online adverts there so I thought I'd give it a go since to do the same with Google Ads would be way out of my price range. So I made a graphic, set my budget and used the ‘Pay per click’ option and launched my ‘Flyer’.

I set my target audience as anyone in the ‘Australia network’ above a certain age. The ad ran for three days and was shown 361,071 times! – 93 people actually clicked on it and went to my website.

Unfortunately none of those 93 people chose to contact me regarding any web work. I guess I need to change my homepage to market my services in a way that brings in work.

Any suggestions would be most welcome.
