Facebook Marketing Throughout the Years

From its early days, Facebook showed great promise to marketers. However, between its inception in 2004 and now, Facebook advertising has changed. For some, it has shifted from being every marketer’s dream to, quite frankly, a lost cause. As Ad Age points out, Facebook’s success has depended on striking a balance between the needs of users and of marketers. While it vocally favours its users, lately Facebook has done little to satisfy marketers. Yet at the end of the day, it is the marketers who provide Facebook’s revenue. Now more than 10 years old, Facebook has 1. 23 billion users, 62% of whom log in daily, and it is still growing. Measures of its advertising, on the other hand, tell a different story. In this whitepaper, we travel back to 2004 to analyse the journey of Facebook advertising, and find out what went wrong.
