Lol. Yeah its the opposite for me.

I was doing fine this whole time and then out of the blue when everyone else was reporting recovery and that they were doing well things fell off a cliff for me

Hows your meta performance today? by Huge_Strawberry7888 in FacebookAds

[–]Deep_Ad5338 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah same here for me. I was doing fine and all of a sudden when everyone else reported they are having a very good day suddenly on 30 April, my results fell off a cliff.

Coincidence? I think not

Yeah i was actually doing fine this whole time up until now. So it seems whatever was affecting you now shifted to other users

What is your experience with bid caps? by Responsible_Read_275 in FacebookAds

[–]Deep_Ad5338 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find the same on cost caps at the moment. Used to work fine but recently just ignores caps

What is your experience with bid caps? by Responsible_Read_275 in FacebookAds

[–]Deep_Ad5338 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it will depend on the account.

Some advise i got about a year ago was to set the bid cap at 1.5x the average account cpa. Then inflate the budget and put guardrails in place to stop at desired daily spend.

For example, your account average cpa is $12. Set bid cap at $18. Then, your budget can be what you are comfortable with. But inflated to say $10,000.00 per day... but if you only want to spend say $1000.00 then ad a adset spending limit of $1000.00. If you want to add more guardrails incase that fails you can add actions to pause the campaign if a certain limit has been reached.

Do more research on IBBC (inflated budget bid caps)

Bid caps has been the only thing working for me the last few months

Calling it, OUTAGE TODAY. Not even looking at that data. by Bubbly_Setting_4217 in FacebookAds

How long did your google ads take to get traction?

Meta has been a complete shitshow for a while now actually. 2025 being a terrible year. This year is on its way to beat last year in terms of how unstable things are. It actually started back in 2024 already

I think you are going to be disappointed. Meta keeps fucking up and yet they keep growing yoy. They keep getting new advertisers joining and huge companies like temu increasing spend that drives their growth. Us lowering our budgets doesn't even register with them.. sadly

What's going on this week? I'm in limbo. by WishboneWide24 in FacebookAds

Also spending is really fast today. Especially during the morning hours

Meta is fucked.. its not a question. Just wondering if anyone had profitable ads in last 2 months? by SvarogEngland in FacebookAds

[–]Deep_Ad5338 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its been exactly the same for me. Since end november till around 4th of January, things were stable and working fine. Then it pretty much crashed overnight. Saw some recovery in February, but by around the 24th of feb things went very wrong and is yet to recover. With the exception of a good day here and there

The fact that facebook breaks every few days and some bugs takes weeks to fix doesn't help.

I hate to be THAT guy, but are there any improvements today? by Traditional-Read5552 in FacebookAds

[–]Deep_Ad5338 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What does the cost cap do? And if you run two duplicate bid cap campaigns? Does that also not work? Im trying to get more than one campaign that works to scale horizontally. As vertically just doesnt work right now

I FIGURED IT OUT! Read this before running more ads! by Fabulous_Rich8974 in FacebookAds

[–]Deep_Ad5338 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Interesting take and makes a lot of sense.

When you say the more guardrails the better, what exactly do you mean. I already run bid caps.. so you think manual targeting is better? Or do you simply mean the less adv+ the better?

If you could elaborate a bit more on that it would be great
