Hello every body today i will talk about how you can target the right way on facebook i think that this work better for people who try to build big facebook profile and get audience and not for people who post on fb groups.  
So you maybe sending some friend request or you can also like people comment on specific page in your niche to get their attention to visit your profile and check your post where you promote your product they can visit your website or send you a friend request or follow you.  
So when we want to send friend request or Facebook PM we search for quality and not quantity and we want to be sure that every one we send a friend request or PM is targeted well.  
i will give you some exemple here to target the right ppl and i will make exemple of the sport niche  
here we will use the facebook search graph and it’s advanced search for for ppl who don’t know it  
i will search here for ppl that live in new york and like NBA  
i write this on the search bar and i get this link

Nice explanation of the search graph, most people don’t know about it, but Facebook made it that you can enter just about anything like that in the search box and get good results. Play around with it and you can target really good.

How did you do it? When I enter the search term ‘People who were born in 1996 and like pages named “Paypal”’ and click the search button on FB page, it doesn’t return the results as you got on the url you posted …

In most cases search using URL constructors like [lookup-id.com](http://lookup-id.com) is more precise than typing query into search field manually.

hmm, not sure if I get it right but you can find Multiple Variables search option in the site I provided above.

I used this service [Facebook Graph Search by Lookup-ID.com](https://lookup-id.com/facebooksearch.html)

It doesn’t work directly with FB ads. I mean you can’t target users in FB ads using FB search. Hope it helps

I tried these links with my personal account that I’ve had for 7 years. Everyone of the graph search queries worked except the last one.

I tried those same queries with an account I created last month and have it on a proxy. None of them worked. Not even the first one. Don’t get any people results. I wonder how long it will take for me to be able to use the graph search…
