this will heavily depend on what type of market your friend is advertising towards. Since not everyone using Facebook, despite the numbers, you won't actually get as much exposure as you would by advertising on Google.

If you're in the tech industry, or doing games, Facebook would be better than Google in my opinion.

Agree with that. Facebook is for those advertisers who want to target specific age groups, genders and similar categories to which Google adwords are not yet efficient enough.(still Google is developing demographic targets for that)

True but Facebook cannot target buyers seeking out a specific product.

I can target interests in Facebook but this is only showing you people who have showed in interest. I can also target buyers, but this is also showing you people that have purchased a certain product online. Doesn't mean they are looking to buy NOW.

Google ads allow you to pinpoint whose buying now. I don't care about their demographic, as long as the location is converting into sales.

Both are good for marketing but if I have to choose one than I will prefer to go with Google Adwords.

Re:

It depends upon your market. But as per my past experience, Google and remarketing would be the best for increasing maximum conversion to your business.

I will choose google adwords because have more potential customers searching products or services for them via google and you will increase sales if you apply google ads.

Consider your product and services, if its tangible products you may use facebook, but software and others you may use google ads

Hi,
Both are effective. But It depends on your products or services..
If you would like to sell day to day products then you can use Facebook Ads.
If you provide services then it is best suited for Google Ads.

The same thought, I tried both, facebook ad is only for traffic, Google ad for sale but high fee for advertising.

If I'm looking for sales I would choose Google AdWords and for generating new leads I'd go with Facebook advert.

Both are good as per marketing point of view, but I will suggest you to use google adward, it also depends on which type of buisness or product you choose for marketing.

I will choose google adwords, Because it is proven base on my experience. And you can place your business in front of the people that are actively searching for what you offer. Discover how productive the right local search strategy can be for your business in driving leads with google AdWords management.

I have different opinion with other since I have tried Adword but I don't have a good experience as everyone..! I love facebook Ads since I could connect with other people and I could know exactly who interest in my product. I tried to keep content with those people and make sales later..!

It really depends on your target audience.
Facebook can be great if you know exactly who your customers are, what product they like. It is also a great source for viral campaigns, when you get likes from friends of your customers.
Adwords is also good adv media, if you want 'hot' customers (they are hungry and want pizza - they use google, not fb)

Both are great platforms but with a significant difference from one another.

Adwords is great for targeting people who are searching for something and are in an instant need.

Facebook is great for targeting audiences.

Some businesses can succeed with both, some only with one of them, it depends on the product you're selling.

I've had success with both :) Though for a beginner I'd suggest choosing Google AdWords.

I'll definitely go with Facebook Ads. Its cheap and very effective. I have grown my entire business with Facebook advertising. Lead generation is far more easier than Google adwords.

I seem to have better conversion with facebook, adwords just requires massive budget and sometimes it doesn't convert.
