Meta's New Transparency Standards for Political Ads and Social Issue Ads

Meta is setting transparency standards for advertisers as it is a must for them to disclose any digital edits in political and social issue ads.

The new policy will apply on both Facebook and Instagram platforms.

Meta's New Transparency Standards for Political Ads and Social Issue Ads:

Meta's New Transparency Standards for Political Ads and Social Issue Ads: eAskme
Meta's New Transparency Standards for Political Ads and Social Issue Ads: eAskme

Meta's new transparency standards for Political and Social Issue Ads will apply in 2024.

It is not a must for an advertiser to disclose if he is using a digitally created asset on Meta ads for Social issues or political ads. It will help eliminate misinformation and false statements from audio, videos, and image assets.

Meta fact-checkers will also keep a vital check on every political ad or social issue ad to avoid misinformation in Meta ads.

The focus of this new policy is to let users know when they are watching an AI-altered ad or manipulated ad on social issues or political ads.

Facebook is receiving backlash for misinformation in advertisements. Some facebook ads also contain unrealistic photos, videos, and events.

Now, the Advertiser must disclose if he is using an altered image, video, or audio.

You need not to disclose in the following scenarios:

  • Image scaling
  • Image resizing
  • Color correction

Meta will also notice if the algorithm finds an altered ad running.

What happens if advertisers do not disclose information?

If an advertiser fails to comply with Meta ad policies, then his ads will get rejected, and he can also receive penalties.

Meta is strictly against misinformation and altered content to wrongly influence people.

A new policy will help Meta to control spam in ads.

The new ad policy will also ensure the ad displays authentic assets, including AI-generated assets.

Why is Disclosure necessary?

As I already said, by disclosing the altered images, text, and voice in ads, you let the user know that there are changes to the original content piece.

Also, it will help fact-checkers to check if the content complies with Meta policies or not.

Conclusion:

Transparency is necessary on social media platforms. Since AI tools can alter anything, It is essential to let the user know if he is watching actual or modified content.

It will also ensure that someone is not running an altered ad with misinformation for political gains. At the same time, it will also ensure that advertisers are not exploiting social issues for monetary gains.

I always prefer transparency on blogs, websites, and social media sites.

Do you like this move?

Meta Lists 6 Culture Codes For Advertisers

Facebook parent company Meta has disclosed 6 culture codes that every advertiser should follow to perform better on Facebook.

Meta has published a report that shows how professional content performs better than regular content.

Meta Lists 6 Culture Codes For Advertisers: eAskme
Meta Lists 6 Culture Codes For Advertisers: eAskme

Why is there culture change?

  • The reason is that most people are using smartphones to access Facebook, and now Facebook has more audiences.
  • Another reason is that brands should share more content regularly to stay connected with their audience.

In recent years, things like smartphones, 4g/5g, pandemic, lockdown, remote jobs culture, Reels, etc., have also changed the social media culture.

People are more interested in sharing real-life events.

YPulse report shows that 79% of users do not prefer to see perfect images in ads.

It is time to understand these 6 culture codes released by Meta for brands.

Real People with Real Stories:

The audience understands the difference between ads and reality. They want more real content than perfect ads.

Brands should use real customers or employees to improve the potential of their ads.

When someone else shares your story, it becomes authentic.

Language:

Brands should follow social media platform language to stay relevant and effective.

When we say social media language, it does not mean writing or speaking.

Still, it is about recognizing user behavior on social media platforms and creating ads according to that.

Build Relationships:

Forging strong relationships with influencers and content creators.

People trust influencers or creators they are following more than your ads.

You should make content creators or social media influencers talk about your product, services, or brand.

Give the creator freedom to tell the story in his way. It is the perfect way to create influential stories about your brand.

Take users behind the scenes:

Taking users behind the scenes is another way to build trust and show them what is happening.

Show them how you are creating content and what it takes.

Use Lo-Fi Techniques:

Use Lo-Fi techniques and tools to create real-life images, videos, etc.

You do not need perfection; you need the reality to show in your ads.

Use Humor:

Humor is always the best way to relate with your audience.

Everyone loves humor, which is why some brands are using funny ads, cartoon characters or comedians, etc.

You can create humorous content or hire someone good at doing the job.

Conclusion:

Social media and its culture are always changing. It takes more than one thing to make that shift.

Brands must stay updated and relevant to their customers.

Use these culture codes to improve your marketing strategies on Facebook.

If you have any question, do let me know via comments.

Share it with your friends and family.

How Meta has Changed Facebook Ads Targeting in 2022: eAskme

On January 19, 2022, Meta will finally change audience targeting in Facebook ad campaigns.

Meta is making this change under the pressure that wants the social media site to scale back targeting options.

Change in Facebook Audience Targeting option will start a trend that will make social media networks use fewer user data.

High-quality audience targeting on Facebook has alarmed governments about the use of user data and user identity.

Therefore, Facebook is limiting targeting options in Facebook ads.

What is changing in Facebook Ads targeting options?

Facebook is removing Facebook ad targeting options for 4 categories such as;

  1. Health Causes
  2. Political and social ads
  3. Religious groups and practices
  4. Sexual orientation

Meta has shared the document stating that ads can still deliver impacted audiences till March 2022.

These changes will impact the audience.

You need to edit your ad before March 17 to follow the Facebook ad standards.

How will Facebook Ad targeting Change impact advertisers?

Meta is under maximum pressure as Facebook is the biggest social media network with maximum advertisers.

Limiting ad targeting will surely impact advertisers running ads in impact categories.

With limited targeting, it can expand the budget and lower the chances to reach the target audience.

It is also possible that Facebook will also scale back ad targeting options on other categories in the coming days.

Meta is responding to their advertising platform's data privacy concerns, and advertisers should comply with their policies.

Conclusion:

Change in Facebook ad targeting for four categories is just the beginning.

Meta will make many changes in 2022 and the coming years to ensure that they listen to the customer's feedback first.
