Static vs video ads: when statics win

Static ads win on production speed, testing velocity and message clarity; video wins on demonstration and storytelling. Most accounts should run both, but statics are the fastest way to find winning angles because you can test ten statics in the time one video takes to produce.

Common questions

Do static ads still perform on Meta?

Yes. Statics remain a core format in high-performing accounts because they're cheap to test at volume and communicate one message instantly in the feed.

Should I test angles with statics first?

That's the common playbook: find the winning angle with cheap static tests, then invest in video for the angles that proved themselves.

Can it use my actual product photos?

Yes. Upload up to four images (product shots, logo, packaging) and the ads are built around those exact images.
