A very small population of 18-25 year old would buy hosting, and as such HG would have a lot of money locked into a 25k minimum buy-in that wouldn't convert so well. On the other hand, if ringtones or screensavers were being promoted, I can see that working well. @Gab - In the event that these ads are not that targeted, I’d say Hostgator wouldn’t be efficiently spending its ad budget on Facebook.

There may be some targeting, but afaik they're sold in bulk. I asked about them once and was told minimum buy is 25K. While I'm sure you'd be a great client, I don't think they're targeting that precisely, not to mention that when I used to run flyers 'seo' was not even a recognized 'interests' keyword to target... Probably a coincidence. Actually, those are run of site ads. There may be some targeting, but afaik they’re sold in bulk. I asked about them once and was told minimum buy is 25K.
