Sharing material on social media drove a lot of traffic to your website a few years ago. However, as social media channels became more nosy, traffic became more difficult to come by. New channels popped up, audiences became more divided, and being engaged on all of them became increasingly challenging.
Then,
notably on Facebook, publishers began to observe significant declines in
organic reach and engagement. The loss in organic reach on Facebook is
currently gaining a lot of attention, with some even dubbing the recent
modifications to the news feed "Facebook Zero". However, this is
happening (or will happen) on all major platforms, including Instagram,
Twitter, and LinkedIn Inc. says the executives of a social media marketingcompany in Kolkata.
They're all
becoming paid marketing platforms, which means no more free rides on social
media for publications and brands!
Is a decrease in organic reach, however, truly such a terrible thing?
We've all
gotten used to obtaining free exposure from social media platforms. But… There
are a couple of issues with that, in my opinion:
a) We become
overly reliant on social media to drive traffic and income, so when the rules
change (which they do all too frequently), our marketing results and business
suffer.
b) It isn't measurable.
When Facebook provides us with free traffic, it's like a faucet that turns on
and supplies us with water. However, we have no control over how much water is
released, and the tap can be quickly turned off.
So, how can you solve this issue?
Traffic is
something you have to pay for.
Paying for
traffic is scalable because, as long as you have the budget, you can boost
traffic/conversion as much as you want (with some constraints).
However, as
per the Facebook marketing agency professionals in Kolkata, you must
first assign a value to your activity and then profit from it.
Constructing a sales funnel
You
certainly want people to take action if you place a Facebook ad that directs
them to your website. This might be:

·
Request
a demonstration
·
Purchase
a product
·

You'll need
to create a funnel, figure out how much it costs to get users to your site, and
then calculate how much profit you made.
If you're
still establishing brand awareness, extending your audience, and so on, you
might be okay with a loss (as long as it's not significant). You'll reduce the
loss and establish successful advertising campaigns that earn a strong ROI on
your ad spend as you improve your targeting and funnelling skills.
