Facebook and Advertorials?

What's the general consensus on these? Are they a big "no-no" or is it more of an ok thing as long as you make it compliant?

More specifically tailored to the dieting and health niches.

I love advertorials and Facebook! Heres one i optimized earlier today thats now making me an additiona xxx/day. Its lookalike targeting though so not sure i can scale it to xxxx/day. I know fools who are doing xx,xxx/day on facebook with advertorials though.

Thanks a ton, that makes me feel a lot more comfortable using them then.

Anyone else?

Dieting and health can be tricky verticals to run on Facebook no matter your lander.

Advertorials are not inherently bad but obviously people have a tendency to do naughty things with them and or use a lot of fake elements that certain institutions don't like.

If you're fully compliant then just go for it.

I'm having conversion issues. Doing $xxx per day with a ctr of 1.6%. When I try an advertorial I can get %3 ctr but it's not profitable. I'm going to try some different advertorial angles, .08c cpc's would give me that 4th figure per day.

BTW, scaled it to x,xxx/day lol

Same here. When your reach gets to 1.2m let us know if CTR or CVR drops. Mine did.
