Ad quality: What you should know

What is ad quality?

Our ad system is designed to maximise value for people and businesses. Higher quality ads perform better in the auction because we've designed the auction to help create higher quality experiences for people. Ad quality is determined from many sources, including feedback from people viewing or hiding the ad and assessments of low-quality attributes and practices.

Why does ad quality matter?

Your ad will perform better in the auction if it's higher quality. Ads with a lower quality ranking tend to cost more, which may reduce distribution of the ads and lead to fewer results.

In certain instances, if you repeatedly post policy-violating or lower-quality ads, our systems may start considering all ads from your Page, domain, ad account or other associated entities as lower quality. You can improve your ad performance by recognising instances of low-quality attributes and removing them from your ads or by ensuring that your Page, domain, ad account or other associated entities comply with our Advertising Standards. Over time, your ad performance should improve.

How do I determine my ad's quality?

You can measure the quality of your ad relative to other ads competing for the same audience by using quality ranking in ad relevance diagnostics. In certain instances, we'll send you a notification so you know when low-quality attributes are severely affecting the performance of your ads.

What are tips for improving the quality of my ads?

Do violations of the Meta Advertising Standards result in a lower quality ranking for my ad?

No. If we detect that an ad violates our Advertising Standards, we reject it.
