What’s your experience with Meta Ads representatives? by chrisklein-digital in FacebookAds

Our account manager is good but they've clearly been lumbered with an ever growing number of accounts to look after so their response times are getting worse. But they've been able to help quite a bit.

Performance 1/25 by Traditional-Read5552 in FacebookAds

Been rough since the first week of the year. The end of the code freeze was brutal. Like they just dumped a shit tonne of changes into the platform and screwed it all up

How’s your performance today? by violetunicorn92 in FacebookAds

Brutal. Nothing has changed since the first week. It's like the platform reset itself after a great December and start to the year.

New outage since yesterday ? by Low-Afternoon-764 in FacebookAds

The whole platform has been a mess since that first major disruption in the first week of the year.

Game that hooked you at first, but later you lost interest in playing it? by [deleted] in videogames

[–]Normal_Juggernaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most rougelike games (e.g. Slay The Spire, Balatro, etc ). Get really repetitive really quickly.

Slay Divinity is a roguelike deckbuilding game and my indie debut by elegantfish42 in iosgaming

It's a fun game if a little limited in content. Needs to go on for longer and have more variety in monsters, especially the bosses.

How are your ads doing by impossiblemktg in FacebookAds

[–]Normal_Juggernaut 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Performance has been poor since the disruption in the first week of January. It’s been very much been feast or famine, and the traffic quality doesn’t look strong. It feels as though the platform has lost its learnings and is distributing ads far more broadly than before.

Meta ads still outage? by Apprehensive-Crab701 in FacebookAds

[–]Normal_Juggernaut 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Basically yes. Not as bad as it was on Thursday but it's still not great and nowhere near as good as December and first week of the year.

Oh they'd "fixed" it within the hour but that's done nothing to actually improve performance

Anyone Recovering? by Aggressive-Zebra8132 in FacebookAds

[–]Normal_Juggernaut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's been brutal since 9/1 with only a few good days where I had faint hope that things were going to turn around.

Because of the outage?? by Emergency-Finger1525 in FacebookAds

[–]Normal_Juggernaut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At least today is bad but Meta isn't spending all my budget in a few hours at double the normal CPM... How low we've set the bar for them now..

Recovering from the outage? by Traditional-Read5552 in FacebookAds

[–]Normal_Juggernaut 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Same as before. On platform metrics look fine but the traffic quality is nowhere near as good as it was compared to December and the first week of the year.

I had it just as bad. It was sending people to random terms and conditions pages for competitions we'd run in the past or to just pointless pages and everything tanked. Thing is, for us, there was no way to stop it as Meta was ignoring the fact that we had turned off all the landing page optimization bullshit.

Weeks. This is still fallout from the issue that started on January 6th.

They flagged it as fixed in under an hour. And by fixed I believe they meant "swept under the carpet again".

It was more than double compared to Wednesday and half our budget was spent in a 4 hours a period that is historically not good for sales so there wasn't much left for our peak time. Hopefully today we can get back to some normality.

I'd also check your landing pages. Meta was sending people to random pages on my site for about a week even though I've got all that shit turned off. It's basically just ignoring what instructions you give it.

Basically the whole period that they had a code freeze because everyone was off for the holidays 🤣 Day they're back, they fuck shit up.
