Facebook has decided to streamline its ad options so that over time, advertisers can simply “come to Facebook and tell us what they are trying to achieve, and our ads tools will automatically suggest the right combination of products to help them achieve it.”

The move will simplify many areas of its ad options over the next six months, including:
Removing the Questions product for Pages.Removing the online Offer product.Include the best of sponsored stories in all ads.Making ads look more consistent.Here’s an example of the consistent look and feel Facebook is referring to:
Facebook said the decision is based on feedback from marketers collected during the past year, and that the insight helped decide what should stay and what should go.
