“[Our] two most successful Biteable videos have received 31M and 34M views [on Facebook]. A couple over 5M views and there were a few that didn’t do as well – around 300K views. So, as a rough estimate, over 82 million views in total.”

The basics
Make Facebook video ads that stop the scroll
Just like you follow a recipe to bake a cake, there’s a formula to making a successful Facebook video ad. Follow these simple tips from our marketing gurus and you’ll be sure to serve up a video creation that all your viewers will love. It’s time to send your video views through the roof.
Short and sweet
On your outings into the social wilderness, it’s rare to come across a video in your News Feed that’s longer than thirty seconds. Why? Shorter videos have higher engagement rates and are more likely to be watched to the end.
Another fantastic thing about short video ads on Facebook is that they automatically loop, meaning there’s no need for your viewer to hit the replay button. This goes a long way to raking in the views.
Let text do the talking
You can’t rely on voice over and audio to grab people’s attention, because most people consume Facebook video ads with the sound off. The next step is a strong, witty, or intriguing written statement.
Keep your text short and sharp, and make it large enough that your viewers will be able to read every word. Biteable’s Facebook ad templates are a perfect place to start if you’re looking for marketing campaign inspiration.

Pro tips
Get your Facebook video ad right the first time
There’s no need to make your Facebook video ad a trial-and-error process. Although Biteable’s video maker gives you the know-how to make a sensational video, there are a couple of simple things to keep in mind when putting it all together.
Have an objective
Before you upload your video to Facebook, you’ll have to pick an objective. This includes things like brand awareness, lead generation, and app installs. If you’re struggling, Brand Awareness is a good all-rounder and helps Facebook deliver your video ad to a targeted demographic, increasing the chances it’ll be seen by people interested in your brand.
Play by the rules
There are a couple of policies Facebook has in place for their video ad content and video advertising. These are fairly simple to adhere to. In a nutshell, don’t be offensive, don’t make false claims, and don’t promote anything illegal with your Facebook ads – standard common sense for most social media platforms.
