Using Facebook ID Scrapers To Build Custom Audiences


Hey folks, today I am gonna talk about using Facebook UID scraper. I recently created a video about custom audiences and it has turned immensely popular. The fact of the matter is that a large number of affiliate marketers are doing these, anyhow!

But, the point I want to draw attention to is that they are utilizing certain tools or bots. They visit a fan page or a group and from there they scrape all the user IDs from that group or that fanpage and then they go on and create them as a custom audience. Now, a question people ask me all the time is, whether it's legal.



I feel there's nothing legal or illegal about it! I contend that no one is getting hurt, and no law is being broken. Nonetheless, I am not a lawyer. Another question that plagues many is whether doing this is ethical or not! In technical terms you're literally scraping people's information, and they don't know that you're doing it. Then you are making use of this data, like pages they have liked, or page posts they have liked, to sell them things.

Another point I'll like to mention and which is very vital is that on the Facebook Terms of Service, nothing of the sort whether you can or cannot scrape Ids, to use for affiliate marketing has been spelled out. However, there is some language in there that states not using a 'bot' to harvest user information and use that information elsewhere.


What I believe is that the custom audiences feature was from day one intended for people who already have an audience, who were looking to extend their reach to their audience using Facebook Ads. Anyways, if you really want to use custom audiences and you want to use a scraper, then I think it's fine to use that at your own audiences. What I believe is that Facebook doesn't think it's OK to use it on lots of other audiences.



Anyways, Facebook UID scraper is great software program that enables you to search and extract unique user ID's from Facebook pages, to a CSV file. With zero effort you can import CSV to Facebook power editor to get custom audience. Make use of this amazing app to target your Facebook Ads more precisely. Now you can improve your click through rates by putting to use highly targeted custom audiences in your niche.


To cut the story short if you really want to get a nice return from your ad spend then don't think any further, rather try Facebook UID scraper, to find out if it's effective or just a passing fad!
