Do You Notice Facebook Ads?

Confidence in Facebook's growth potential and marketability is dwindling, and now claims that Facebook ads don't work are threatening to shake it even more. According to Forbes, Facebook is jumping on damage control because General Motors dropped its $10 million in Facebook advertising. Not that $10 million is much to Facebook, but the message it sends could be disastrous.

To address the situation, Facebook outlined what a good ad should include: a focal point, brand link, tone, reward, noticeability, and finally, a point. If an ad doesn't have those things, it risks being ignored. Of course, companies like General Motors would argue that it's the platform that needs work, rather than the ads themselves. Do you tend to notice good Facebook ads, or do you ignore them completely?

    hmmm, never had lag in Firefox, and no random shutdowns. I have tried chrome and most of the other browsers though. I just prefer Firefox because it has lots of add-ons while not being released with a bunch of preinstalled features you may or may not need. Plus I hate how every browser out there looks (including Firefox), but I love the lavafox skin.

    What finally changed my mind to switch from FF to GC is that GC copys and pastes the formatting better.

    I think advertising on the internet is get the least of my attention. I usually don't even look at the right side.
