Social Media Ads FAQ

What makes a social media ad stop the scroll?

The first frame is everything. Use bold colors, unexpected visuals, movement, or faces to grab attention. Your hook should create curiosity or emotion within the first second. Pattern interrupts - something unexpected - work best.

Should I create different videos for each platform?

Yes! Each platform has different user expectations. TikTok users expect raw, authentic content. Instagram users expect polished aesthetics. Facebook users respond to clear benefits. YouTube Shorts users want entertainment. One size doesn't fit all.

How long should social media video ads be?

For paid ads, shorter is usually better - 15-30 seconds for most platforms. TikTok can go longer (up to 60s) if engaging. Facebook feed ads perform best under 15 seconds. Always front-load your key message in the first 3 seconds.
