What you will learn

On your own Page, open Ads → Create ad, choose "Get more Page likes" and tap "Use post" to pick one of your best clean posts.
In Audience, remove Pakistan, add United States, keep men and women and age 18–55, and don't add detailed targeting or interests.
Set a small daily budget, publish, and check the ad after review — keep it if the cost per like looks good, pause it if not.

Questions this lesson answers

Which ad goal should I choose to get likes on my Facebook Page?

Open your Page's Ads > Create ad and choose 'Get more Page likes'. Other goals are for Page visits, calls, messages, lead forms or website visits.

How do I target only the United States in a Page-likes ad?

In Audience > Locations, remove Pakistan and add United States. Keep men and women and leave age at 18-55. Check again that Pakistan was really removed.

Should I use detailed targeting or interests for Page likes?

The video advises against it: detailed targeting (states, interests) makes the ad more expensive. Target only the country and let Facebook learn who likes your Page.

How do I stop my ad from showing on Instagram?

In Placements, turn off Advantage+ placements and keep only Facebook.

How much should I spend per day on a Page ad?

Start small. The video uses $5 a day per ad and checks after 2-3 days (estimate from the video). Keep the ads that work and turn off the rest.

Should I run ads on a non-monetized Page?

In the video, Umair spends on the Page because it is monetized and says he would not spend on a non-monetized Page.

My new ad isn't running yet. What's wrong?

New ads first go 'In review'. Check them under Ads; they start after Meta approves them. Use clean, honest posts - 'press like if...' style images are often rejected.
