Facebook Relevance Score Removed – What Now?

Relevance Score has reached the end of the road

Earlier in the month we provided insight into four significant Facebook Page updates your business will need to adapt to in 2019. Of course, being the busy bodies they are, Facebook has been making adjustments to their ad platform at a record pace to offer more robust and actionable insights for businesses. But given that “privacy” continues to be the only keyword media cares about after a controversial year for the tech giant, one recent update didn’t get a lot of press – the removal of the Facebook Relevance Score for ads.

For the uninitiated, Relevance Score (scaled 1 to 10) is a reflection of ad performance and helps ensure that users (prospective customers) see ads that matter to them. The intent was to provide a better experience for both businesses and the pubic. The algorithm collected information as people interacted (liked, shared, hid, etc.) and provided feedback (reported) on a given ad, and from there the score would be calculated based on the positive and negative feedback Facebook expected an ad to receive from its target audience thereon in. The intent of the program was to lower the cost of reaching users, help businesses test ad creative before releasing a campaign, and to help optimize campaigns already in progress. 

Sounds good. But now it’s gone, you ask? Yes, and no.

When it comes to Facebook advertising updates, “removal” should always be read as “replacement”, with an intent to provide a better solution for businesses using their ad platform. And that’s what’s happening here. Let’s review.

What Areas of Digital Marketing and Design Do You Cover?

This is an important question to determine if you’re working with a full-service digital marketing agency or a specialized firm. If you only want a specific task done, like designing a website or handling social media marketing, a specialized firm can work. We’re a full-service firm, and we recommend our services because our responsibilities can grow, shrink, and evolve with your plan as your company grows.

Who Will Be Involved in My Project?

It’s not enough to meet with the head of the company – make sure you know who’ll be delegated to handle your company’s website and marketing campaigns. For small one-man companies, a single person can wear many hats. For larger companies, there will be on-site experts in every service we offer and you can expect specialized care to every area of your digital marketing plan.

How Do You Report Results?

Getting the website and marketing campaign up and running is only the first step to a successful digital marketing campaign – you need the follow-through to determine it’s hitting the clickthroughs and demographics you want. That’s why you need to ask for information on the statistical tools used to report results. At Digital Marketing Collective, we use professional-caliber statistical tools that can give you monthly breakdowns of your views, included in the price of your service package.

How Do I Contact You?

One perk of having a full-service digital marketing agency in your pocket is the insurance should a server outage or other technical issue derail your website. Getting back up in hours rather than days can save a business’ momentum. That’s why we’re easily reachable during business hours and can be working on your issue in minutes, and emergency off-hours contacts can be discussed in your contract.

How Do You Work with Your Clients?

Every client prefers a different working style, so we let our clients take the lead. At our first meeting, we invite you to lay out your vision for your business’ digital presence and see how it can work with our services. You can give us freedom to let our experts take the lead, or lay out every step of the process for them to follow.
