Before You Start AdTargeting

You should have basic knowledge of the target audience and already have worked with a Facebook ads manager in the past.

Why Do You Need AdTargeting?

When you enter a keyword in the detailed targeting section in Facebook Ads Manager, it shows a dropdown with 25 interest suggestions. But these are shown to over 10+ million advertisers. It means that you need to compete with a large number of advertisers for the same group of interested users.
