I read, over at the Red Fly Marketing Blog, that you can get a $100 advertising credit on Facebook courtesy of Visa. As part of a Visa promotion, they are offering Facebook users a $100 credit to try out the Facebook advertising platform. All you need to do is to add the Visa Business Network App and you get a coupon code and instruction on how to add the credit to your account.

Now I have never advertised on Facebook or MySpace before, but I would imagine that the conversions are pretty bad. I don’t think that many people would be looking at or clicking on any banner ads. People are just too engaged in their social networks. I know that I completely tune out all ads when I am on MySpace. But, anyways, this is a good chance to test the waters!
