3. Objective
Facebook advertising helps you achieve a variety of business objectives such as conversions, sales or brand awareness. The Objective section lets you specify whether you want Facebook to show your ad or sponsored story to the people most likely to like your Page, install your app or click on your ad or sponsored story. For example, if you want to grow your audience, select Show this to people who are most likely to like my Page from the Objective eld.

If you want more people to click on your ad or sponsored story, select Click on my ad or sponsored story.

If you want more people to install your app, select Show this to people who are most likely to install my app.

When you select like my Page or install my app in the "Objective" section, you will be charged for every thousand impressions you receive (CPM). This means you will only pay when someone sees your ad. When you select click on my ad or sponsored story, youll automatically pay for the number of clicks you receive (CPC) and you can specify how much you would like to pay for each click.

Not sure which objective you should be optimizing for? Set up a campaign with two identical ads, one to optimize for clicks and the other to optimize for Page likes or app installs. You can then see which objective is best for achieving your business goals.
