Why aren't my Facebook ads converting on SlickPurple?

Topic summary

Main issue: Facebook ads for slickpurple.com are not converting. The OP shared a store link and a screenshot; replies focus on ad targeting, site usability, and measurement.

Key ad-related factors to check:

  • Audience and targeting: insufficient or overly niche audiences, too many keywords, overlapping audiences, and lack of segmentation. Split campaigns by region to control and compare CPC (cost per click), CPA (cost per acquisition), and CPM (cost per thousand impressions).
  • Budget and relevance: ad set budgets may be too low; improve Facebook Relevance Score (1–10) by testing creatives, ensuring ad–landing page alignment, and increasing relevance to the selected audience.
  • Traffic quality: concern that a portion of paid clicks may be bots; consider diversifying into organic channels.

Site/landing page improvements:

  • First screen doesn’t clearly show what the product is; align visuals and copy with ad messaging.
  • Header accessibility issue: low-contrast menu and search bar; adjust theme colors (Online Store > Themes > Customize > Theme settings > Colours).

Measurement and tools:

  • Use session recording and analytics (e.g., Reactflow, Hitsteps) to observe user behavior.
  • Consider SEO/organic indexing tools to reduce dependence on paid ads.

Status: No confirmed resolution; actionable steps provided to optimize targeting, creative–landing page match, site UI, and analytics.

Hi @TommyIsBae ,

Here are the potential reasons that your campaign is not converting:

  1. Target audience is niche: you might set up too many keywords in one campaign that limits your target audience, and the numbers are not big enough to drive conversions
  2. Check your ads copy: your ads copy and photos are consistent, but they might not be closely relevant to your landing page.
  3. Check your landing page: I’ve checked your website, and the first screen does not show clearly what product you are selling, and the search bar menu is not visible as much.
