I spent $1 to test
Hanzla Tahir
I spent $1 to test the biggest myth in Facebook Ads.
Myth: Boost Post and Real Campaign give same results.
Test Setup: $1 per day, same creative, 24 hours.
Result 1 - Boost Post:
Reach barely past own followers
No targeting control
0 link clicks tracked
Visibility only, no results
Result 2 - Real Campaign (Ads Manager):
Clear objective: Traffic
Specific audience targeting
Trackable results: Reach, Engagement, Link Clicks
$0.07 cost per result
Learning: Boosting = visibility. Campaigns = results.
This is why I never use Boost Post for restaurant clients. I use Ads Manager to get direct orders, not just likes.
Tools: Meta Ads Manager, Audience Targeting, Campaign Optimization
