The best tips for creating video creatives on Facebook.
Video advertising is a fantastic way to promote your brand. It brings some energy
and shows your product or service in action. It doesn't matter if your content is
just a made-up story or an animated video—video content makes your brand
come alive and grabs people's attention. Here are a few tips on how to create
video content for Facebook:
- The first few seconds of a video are crucial for getting the viewer's attention.
So make the start of the video really stand out. Use bright colors, movement,
or an unexpected twist to get viewers engaged and make them stop and
watch the video. Show your product or service in those first few seconds.
- Facebook users typically scroll through their news feeds at a fast pace, so
your video should be concise and informative. It is advisable to convey the
main idea or message within the first few seconds, in order to capture the
viewer's attention.
- A significant number of users of the Facebook platform watch videos
without sound. Including subtitles can assist them in comprehending
the video content and maintaining their attention levels. Furthermore,
subtitles can be beneficial to viewers with disabilities, such as hearing
or speech impairment. In any case, the content of the video must be
understandable without sound.
- High-quality images in your video can really help it look more appealing.
Use bright colors, interesting backgrounds, and eye-catching objects to
make your video more memorable.
- As most users of Facebook view content on mobile devices, it is important
to keep this fact in mind when creating content for this platform. Ensure
that your video is optimized for viewing on mobile devices, with text that
is easy to read and elements visible on smaller screens. Use a vertical
(4:5) or square format.
- Include a CTA (call to action) in your video. This could be an invitation to
visit your website, subscribe to a page, or take any other action you want
viewers to take after watching the video.
- Test out different video creatives to see what works best for you. Take a
close look at the viewability, engagement, and conversion metrics to
figure out which types of videos work best for your target audience.
