Facebook advertising has quickly become one of the most effective methods of advertising on social media.  A major benefit of advertising on the platform is using their algorithms for targeting. Facebook targeting allows you to take complete control of who sees your ads, and when.  You can run them based on gender, age, location, certain behaviors, and even relationship status.  So if you’ve recently added a “Life Event” to your Facebook Timeline, expect to soon be targeted!

Newly engaged?  Here come the wedding ads!  At least you’ll have some help planning your special day.

Recently married?  Well, then get ready for everything baby with ads for clothing, diapers, books and toys. You’ll be prepped long before you’re even expecting!
