Glossary of Campaign Terms

💡 Each social ad campaign starts with an "objective" — a direction to the platform to show your ad to people more likely to take the specific action described in the objective.

Conversion

Catalog Sales

Use your target audience to show people ads with items from your catalog.

What is "interests expansion"?

Expansion directs Facebook's system to reach a broader set of people when it's likely to improve your campaign performance. This can result in better campaign results at an optimized cost. When we enable expanded targeting on your campaign, and Facebook thinks it can get you better results by using it, it will take a portion of your existing budget and split it between your selected audience and a broader audience. Then throughout your campaign, it will shift budget to the audience that is getting better results at a lower cost.
