2. Facebook is undeniably one of the most influential companies on the
internet; they dominate the social media landscape and cause
web-wide rage with even the most minor of updates.
Facebook marketing offers a tremendous competitive edge for car dealers
in competitive markets. There are amazing success stories and equally
amazing monumental failures. Marketing using Facebook is about your
"Circle of Influence".
Could they do more, though? They certainly seem to think so.

3. • The social media company’s latest foray is encroaching ever so slightly
into Google’s turf.
• Facebook is now offering a new form of search-based advertising.
• Much like Google and others, Facebook will allow paid ads, or “sponsored
listings”, to be placed at the top of their search results.

4. The trial run is currently underway, with prominent companies like
Disney and Zynga already showing up in the sponsored results section.
• Stylistically, the ads blend in fairly well with the organic search results.
• The only major distinguishing feature is the “Sponsored” header and a
small X in the upper right corner, allowing users to close that ad.

5. For the duration of the trial, Facebook is allowing companies to buy
sponsored ads on a pay-per-click system. These ads can then be
targeted in a variety of ways.

6. • As of now, it seems likely that the payment system will change once
the trial is over.
• The simple pay- per-click is great for enticing and for proof of concept,
but it appears Facebook will be moving towards a more aggressive
bidding model when the program goes live.

7. Even with this change, Google appears safe for the time being.
Facebook’s search tool only works internally.
• Everything the company does is still designed to keep users on
Facebook’s own little patch of the web.
• So once clicked, the new ads will only lead to the Facebook page of the
sponsor, and not offsite.

8. Moving people from your Facebook content to your landing pages still
takes effort, so make sure you’re Facebook page is looking good after
the Timeline update.

9. Remember: Even with the addition of these new ads, there will still be a
need for talented people working on your business’s social media SEO.
