Carousel link ad best practices
Basics Audit all of the links on desktop and mobile. Make sure they work.
Images Make sure creative for the carousel link ad is beautiful and fits the unit. (shoehorning link ad creatives into the carousel link ad does not work well.)
Text Use the text space under each of the images, especially for direct response. Keep it short, don’t leave it blank. i.e. list product name, price, benefits, or even call to action.
Bid Put sufficient budgets toward oCPM ads. The initial dollars are for training the system, the later dollars will drive most performance
Insights Evaluate performance holistically across all campaigns against the same audience. Best practice is to set up a standard link ad and a carousel link ad in same ad set, and let Facebook find the best performer. If the carousel link ad campaign has separate budget and targets the same audience as existing standard link ad campaigns, the outcome is not valid comparative data.
