- #57 Facebook Exchange ads allow businesses to retarget visitors to their websites when they next visit Facebook. For example, someone who checks out a a pair of shoes on a clothing site but doesn’t end up buying could see ads encouraging them to buy those same shoes next time they’re on Facebook. Retargeting lets businesses reach potential customers who’ve shown purchase intent and have a much higher likelihood of conversion. This means advertisers may be willing to pay much higher prices than for standard ads.
