Facebook continues improving its platform, and Twitter expands into advertising. Twitter advertising is more cost-effective and offers greater potential. Brands could see huge growth if Facebook can keep up with Twitter's momentum. While scale and polish are important for some campaigns, Twitter’s algorithm and reach is crucial for others. We will compare Twitter advertising to Facebook advertising in this article and discuss the pros and disadvantages of each.
Cost per click
Cost per click (CPC), is the cost that you pay each time your ad gets clicked. Facebook has a lower cost per click on weekdays than it does on weekends. As a result, the cost of your ad can fluctuate by as much as 10 cents. This fluctuation can be more noticeable on weekends since fewer people are online. Whether you choose to run your campaign on weekends depends on the nature of your business. For instance, cold drinks and ice creams sell better on warm summer nights than they do in winter. People will order more fast food on Friday night than they do during the week.
Facebook ads usually cost around $0.50 to 1.72 per click. CPL costs slightly more. Both options require that you bid a certain amount, but the difference isn't as large as one might think. CPC is used by many companies for their social media ads. But, even well-known brands will use this method to keep their business in the forefront of their minds. No matter what bidding method you use, a professional social marketing specialist can help maximize your social media advertising efforts.
Network reach
If you're looking to advertise on social networks, you should understand that the engagement varies among the two platforms. Facebook's network reach is considerably larger, while Twitter's is smaller. Both are primarily mobile platforms, with the average smartphone user spending more than 2 hours a day using apps.
