Facebook Audience Network (FAN) is Facebook own way to rival Google Adsense and the popular Publisher Network by Google. The Facebook Ad Network has been around for almost 2 years but most Nigeria bloggers are yet to know how to apply and get accepted into the program. Another important issue is that many bloggers do not know how to make the Facebook Audience Network Ads display on blogspot.

Facebook Network Ads only display on Mobile Apps and mobile sites and that is a great challenge because the Ads won’t display on web pages. If you're wondering if you can use FAN ads on a Blogger blog, the answer is, YES YOU CAN. I am using it on one of my blog and I'll show you how to Integrate it into your Blogger blogs using the basic steps below.

All Blogger's sites mobile version is identify using the “m=1” at the end of the page URL as shown in this example www.techvilla.com.ng.html?m=1

This URL, along with your device and browser details are what tells Facebook that a User is viewing your site on Mobile, hence make them display F.A.N ads on your blog.

There are only 4 simple step you will need to follow to register for the Ads Network
 Register for a Facebook Developer account through this link
Follow the site links and apply with your blogspot website or App for Monetisation
You will need to generate code and then integrate the script into your site (Blog)
Get Approved, Go Live and start earning from it.

Detail Description of the steps listed above are as follows:
Register on FB Developers if you haven't already
Use your Facebook profile to Register a Facebook developer account here and add your website URL in "ADD New App." Read more about setting up your App on this page

Get Started with an App
Please take special notice of your APP PUBLISHER ID, You will make use of it later.
Now, head go to Facebook Audience network page, click START NOW.
Select the App you created for your Website, next, we will use the app and website to Apply for FAN ads. That page will also take you through all the steps to Create Advert Placement which you'll apply on your blog (mobile site) later.

Getting approved is much easier  
You have to integrate the codes you're given into your website. The codes come in 2 pairs which you'll integrate into your Blogger template.
Go to your Blogger Settings >> Template >> Edit Template HTML.
Look for <head>
Just below it, Paste these lines of code (where you see APP ID, replace it with your App ID number you copied in step 2.)

<script id='facebook-jssdk' src='//connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk/xfbml.ad.js#xfbml=1&amp;version=v2.5&amp;appId=APP ID NUMBER HERE'/>
Now hit Save.

Finally Go Live
Again, Go back to your Blogger settings >> Layout >> Add gadget >> JavaScript/HTML >> Paste the code given to you after you created ad placement in 2nd Step above.
In the ad code you'll find something like this ===>  testmode="false"

You can turn that to "true" so that Facebook is aware you're trying or testing it out to Get Approved for FAN ads.

Click Save and wait for Facebook to do their thing, it may take days but you should get a mail from Facebook once you're approved.

After then you can set back your FAN Ad code to testmode="false"

  1. This seems like a great plan. I am using social media marketing services for my website and I’ve had good results. I generally go with facebook ads services, but Instagram is also a great platform to work. PPC, I would like to try.
